Topographic evolution of the East African Plateau : a combined study on lava-flow modeling and paleo-topography

Autor: Wichura, Henry

The East African Plateau provides a spectacular example of geodynamic plateau uplift, active continental rifting, and associated climatic forcing. It is an integral part of the East African Rift System and has an average elevation of approximately 1,

International audience; Away from active plate boundaries the relationships between spatiotemporal variations in density and geothermal gradient are important for understanding the evolution of topography in continental interiors. In this context the
