Breakup Without Borders: How Continents Speed Up and Slow Down During Rifting
Abstract Relative plate motions during continental rifting result from the interplay of local with far‐field forces. Here we study the dynamics of rifting and breakup using large‐scale numerical simulations of mantle convection with self‐consistent evolution of plate boundaries. We show that contine...
