Active Oceanic Detachment Faulting at the Ultraslow Spreading Mohns-Knipovich Ridge Bend: A 12 Month Microseismicity Study

At ultraslow spreading ridges magma supply is limited and spreading is often accommodated by tectonic extension, resulting in large offset normal faults. When these initially steep normal faults roll over to lower angles at shallow depths they are called detachment faults. They can expose mantle roc...
