Magmatic lithospheric heating and weakening during continental rifting: A simple scaling law, a 2‐D thermomechanical rifting model and the East African Rift System
Continental rifting is accompanied by lithospheric thinning and decompressional melting. After extraction, melt is intruded at shallower depth thereby heating and weakening the lithosphere. In a feedback mechanism this weakening may assist rifting and melt production. A one‐dimensional kinematic lit...
