What land features are associated with the process of orogenesis at divergent boundaries?

What has the author Peter Eric Johnson written?
Peter Eric Johnson has written: 'The origin of the Chiwaukum graben, Chelan County, Washington' -- subject(s): Grabens (Geology)
What is a rift basin?
Rift basins are depressions within the crust and lithosphere that are associated with extensional tectonics. The presence of active normal faulting itself, creates the accomodation space for sedimentary infill within grabens and half graben structures.
What does the surface of the moon contain?
The surface of the moon contains mainly dust, rocks, and craters. There are also areas with mountains, valleys, and large plains called maria, which are formed from ancient volcanic activity. Additionally, the moon's surface has no atmosphere, water, or organic material.
How are horsts and grabens similar?
A Graben is the result of a block of land being downthrown producing a valley with a distinct scarp or "escarpment" on each side. An example would be a rift valley such as the Jordan valley (containing the dead sea) or the East African rift valley system or the Rio Grande Rift in New Mexico and west Texas.Grabens often occur side-by-side with Horsts. (see related link below).A Horst is the reverse of a Graben, it forms as a residual elevated block of land left between the formation of two parallel Graben. An example of a Horst would be the Black Forrest mountains, and the Ruwenzori Range.
Why do rocks move?
By plate tectonics. Continental collision compresses, folds, faults and lifts the land. Crustal tension stretches the basement rock, causing down-warping and faulting, grabens, etc.
