Axial sedimentation of the Red Sea Transitional Region (22°-25° N): pelagic gravity flow and sapropel deposition during the late Quaternary M Taviani ABSTRACT The Red Sea is an under-supplied marine rift basin Study of sediments based on core and dredge samples from the Transitional Region (22°~25° N) show that offshore
The Red Sea is a *300 km wide nascent ocean centred on a well-de?ned active divergent boundary between the formerly continuous Neoproterozoic rocks of the Arabian Shield and Nubian Shield (ANS) (Fig 1) that are now parts of the Arabian and Nubian (or African) plates The Red Sea is Earth’s best example of an active incipient ocean basin that
THE evolution of the Red Sea depression and the extent within it of oceanic crust have been widely discussed'-' It is generally accepted that the axial trough is floored by oceanic

The Red Sea is a long narrow basin separating Africa from Asia extending from NNW to SSE between latitudes 30oN to 12o30ÕN in an almost straight line Its total length is 1932km and average
