Gas geochemistry of volcanic and geothermal areas in the Kenya Rift: implications for the role of fluids in continental Rifting
(University of Nairobi, 2013-12-26)
The East African Rift (EAR) is an active continental rift and ideal to investigate the processes of rift initiation and the breaking apart of continental lithosphere. Mantle and crust-derived fluids may play a pivotal role ...
Contribution of transverse structures, magma, and crustal fluids to continental rift evolution: the East African rift in southern Kenya
(2013-12-13)
The Magadi rift in southern Kenya formed at ~7 Ma within Proterozoic rocks of the Mozambique orogenic belt, parallel to its contact with the Archean Tanzania craton. The rift is bounded to the west by the ~1600-m-high ...
