Subproject: Comparative analysis of the Late Cretaceous to Recent post-breakup basin evolution of the South-American and S-African margin of the southern Atlantic

Description: Das Projekt "Subproject: Comparative analysis of the Late Cretaceous to Recent post-breakup basin evolution of the South-American and S-African margin of the southern Atlantic" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von RWTH Aachen University, Fachgruppe für Geowissenschaften und Geographie, Lehrstuhl für Geologie und Paläontologie und Geologisches Institut durchgeführt. This project focuses on a regional comparison between the post-breakup tectonic and stratigraphic record archived in the Pelotas and Santos basins offshore southern Brazil and the post-breakup continental margin successions of offshore Namibia and southern Angola. Tectonic-stratigraphic analysis of selected, representative 2D seismic transects both south and north of the Florianopolis - Walvis Ridge volcanic complex will provide a comprehensive basin-to-basin documentation of the key factors controlling the post-breakup offshore margin development including the margin configuration, subsidence development through time, sediment influx and storage patterns, type of basin fill (e.g. salt vs. non-salt systems; carbonate-rich vs. clastics-dominated systems) and sea-level fluctuations. Combined tectonic-stratigraphic backstripping will be used to integrate, quantify and weigh the influence of the above factors on the margin development at the different study sites.
