Abstract
The thermal and flexural evolution of passive margins are impacted by the (un)loading effects of erosion/sedimentation processes, which, in turn, affect their relief and sediment accumulation. This complex coupling is recorded by the stratigraphic trend of the associated sedimentary basins, which is controlled by the balance between sediment accumulation, subsidence and eustasy.
