摘要
During the early stages in the formation of divergent margins, the lithosphere experiences large changes in temperature that can determine its strength and influence magma generation. Heat-flow data from the Eastern Gulf of Aden indicate a thermal anomaly that has persisted after continental break-up. This anomaly may have been caused by small-scale convection that occurred during and after rifting.
