Synrift Stratigraphy

Synrift Stratigraphy is a stratigraphic framework that characterizes the deposition and architectural evolution of sedimentary sequences formed contemporaneously with active rifting, distinguished from other basin stratigraphies by its direct genetic linkage to extensional tectonic processes during the rifting phase of basin development.
