Digital fault mapping and spatial attribute analysis of basement-influenced oblique extension in passive margin settings

Oblique extension and passive margin segmentation may be attributed to the influence of basement structures. Pre-existing fabrics exert a strong control on the overall rift geometry in extensional settings, and can lead to the development of complex fault patterns, obliquely extending segments, defo...
