Abstract

Geodynamic processes, like slab break-off are suggested to affect overlying sedimentary basin architecture. In this setting, rebound and associated surface uplift following slab-break-off are suggested to lead to a decrease in accommodation and an increase in sediment supply, following source rejuvenation due to uplift. This eventually results in basin shallowing. Although the sediment supply intensity is generally attributed to the tectonic and/or climatic effect, several recent studies emphasize the importance of the source area erodibility as an important factor that can delay tectonic and/or climatic signals.
