- W4310506512 abstract "Documented opposite rotations of the Victoria and Rovuma Microplates in the East African Rift (EAR) are compared to opposite microplate rotations in backarc basins related to subduction rollback. Counter-clockwise rotation of the Victoria Microplate implies northward propagation should occur on the Lakes Rukwa/Tanganyika portion of the Western Branch of the EAR despite the orthodox view that southerly propagation occurs there. A compilation of evidence for propagation including volcanic isotopic ages, border fault throws, subsidence and sediment thickness and age shows northwestern younging of volcanics from 25.9 to 0 Ma at Rungwe southeast of Lake Rukwa to 5.8–2.6 Ma ages at Mwenga-Kamituga, northern end of Lake Tanganyika, and north propagation in Rusizi to Kivu, and Virunga to Toro Ankole segments. Predicted southerly propagation on the Lake Malawi Rift is supported by southerly decreasing border fault throws and sediment isopachs. Where the southern Victoria Microplate meets the northern Rovuma Microplate, rather than a simple strike slip interface as previously modelled, a triangular rift basin develops widening to the ENE and narrowing to the WSW. Seismicity, digital elevation models and a new geological map indicate this is represented by the combined Ruhuhu/Kilombero/Kilosa/Ruvu/Rufiji Rift complex." @default.
