- W2008078049 abstract "It is assumed that some major landforms not easily explained by surface geology could be controlled by deep crustal properties. The concept was first applied in the British Isles and then to the U.S. Atlantic provinces. Both regions were affected by similar orogenies in late Precambrian/Paleozoic times and presently belong to the passive margins of the North Atlantic Ocean. In both areas, the pattern of rifting was greatly influenced by preexisting tectonic fabric of the continental crust. In the British Isles, pre-Mesozoic structures are cut obliquely by the Atlantic margin, while in the U.S. border, the present margin is nearly parallel to the Paleozoic sutures. The British Isles were affected by differential block-tectonics during the Tertiary. Examples are given of regional-scale landforms linked with crustal hinges. Recent data confirm the great heterogeneity of the crust beneath the British Isles. Each crustal unit has its own isostatic response according to the state of stress and its own dynamic equilibrium between rock resistance, erosion processes and uplift rate. In the Atlantic provinces of the United States, the regional physiographic framework is simpler, but allochthonous terranes thrust westward over the Grenville basement and shelf-sediments have buried some major discontinuities in the deep crust. Reverse faults associated with the NW-SE compressional stressfield are numerous but cannot explain regional-scale landforms like the Blue Ridge escarpment above the Piedmont. Rock control is not the direct cause of the escarpment. The Blue Ridge from reaches its highest relief where discontinuities in the deep crust interfere with surficial geological features. Ocean to continent creep processes are suggested to explain the sustained uplift of the Appalachian highlands and the relatively stable position of the mountainous front since middle Mesozoic times." @default.
