Domain-specific¶
- Rift Zone
- The McKenzie (1978) uniform-stretching model quantifies this as a β-factor — the ratio of initial to final crustal thickness — from which syn-rift subsidence, post-rift thermal-sag history, and heat-flow anomaly can be predicted
This sourceThat uniform stretching quantified as a crustal-thinning beta factor predicts syn-rift subsidence, post-rift thermal-sag history and the heat-flow anomaly.

- Subsidence Basin
- The lowering mechanism determines basin geometry, subsidence rate history, and the architecture of the resulting stratigraphic fill: fault-controlled stretching or strike-slip motion produces fault-bounded rift and pull-apart basins; thermal contraction of stretched lithosphere (post-rift sag, following the McKenzie β-factor model) produces broad, elliptical basins with exponentially decaying subsidence
This sourceThe stretching model in which thinned lithosphere cools after rifting, producing slow, fault-free subsidence set by the amount of stretching. The two-stage model: rapid fault-controlled stretching and thinning with immediate subsidence, followed by slow thermal subsidence as the lithosphere cools.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This work's DOI is recorded above but has not been resolved against an external catalogue, so nothing here confirms the work exists.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 2 citations: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
