Lithosphere folding: Primary response to compression?(from central Asia to Paris basin)

S Cloetingh, E Burov, A Poliakov - Tectonics, 1999 - Wiley Online Library

Stress-induced late-stage subsidence anomalies in the Pannonian basin

F Horváth, S Cloetingh - Tectonophysics, 1996 - Elsevier
Subsidence, sedimentation and tectonic quiescence of the Pannonian basin was interrupted
a few million years ago by tectonic reactivation. This recent activity has manifested itself in …

Evolution of passive continental margins and initiation of subduction zones

SAPL Cloetingh, MJR Wortel, NJ Vlaar - Nature, 1982 - nature.com
Although the initiation of subduction is a key element in plate tectonic schemes for evolution
of lithospheric plates, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Plate rupture is …
