Drainage evolution in a rifted basin, Corinth graben, Greece

Auteur :
ZELILIDIS, A.

Description :
This paper deals with the geologic and tectonic controls on drainage evolution in extensional basins. It examines the influence of the different lithologies that the rivers flow across, the presence or absence of transfer faults and intrabasinal basement highs, variations in uplift rates, the time of evolution, and the distance from the basement. Most attention is given to the development of transverse drainages.
