The Rise and Fall of Diapirs During Thin-Skinned Extension The Rise and Fall of Diapirs During Thin-Skinned Extension 1992

Grabens overlying diapirs have previously been ascribed to intrusion, withdrawal, or dissolution of salt. We propose, however, that many grabens or half grabens above diapirs form by regional thin-skinned extension of a brittle overburden.
