Plot of Te as a function of elapsed time between rifting and load emplacement (for discrete loads) on rifted continental margin lithosphere. Blue lines are the predictions of Burov & Poliakov (2001) based on numerical modelling. Estimates for NE Brazil/Amazon and NE Brazil/Amazon 2 from Rodger et al. (2006), for East India/Bengal from Krishna et al. (2000), for Tethys/Oman from Ali & Watts (in press), Western Platform New Zealand from Holt & Stern (1991) and for South China Sea/Taiwan from Lin & Watts (2002).
