“…Of these features, the most notable are the numerous active and ancient faults that have altered the elevation and orientation of the sedimentary strata in the basin (Rossetti et al, 2011;Gandini et al, 2014;Souza et al, 2022). The reactivation of basement-seated faults created current structures, such as river valleys and fluvial terraces in the coastal zone, which can be observed from fault scarps formed by displacement along the fault line (Peulvast et al, 2006;Bezerra et al, 2014;Peulvast and Bétard, 2015;Correia Filho et al, 2019;Bezerra, 2020a, 2020b;Matos et al, 2021).…”
