Rheological inheritance controls the formation of segmented rifted margins in cratonic lithosphere

The evolution of rifts and rifted margins is controlled by the rheology of the lithosphere. Thus, pre-existing lateral rheological variations can dominate the rifting process and lead to margin segmentation, with along-strike changes in crustal structure and nature and timing of continental breakup.
