The Basin and Range Province of the US is undergoing extension, especially in the west. This extension thins the crust and creates down dropped valleys (basins) flanked on either side by mountains (ranges). We can measure this extension using GPS instruments.

In the Basin and Range Province, GPS measurements reveal prolonged extension—from infinitesimal motion in eastern Utah to rates of about 6.5 mm per year in western Nevada. Compared to the rapid ~45 mm per yr movement along the California coast, this may seem minor. However, the effects of this slow, steady stretching can be observed in the presence of nearly parallel mountain ranges and valleys in the landscape of Nevada and Utah. Precise GPS observations show that ongoing extension can be monit

How do the valleys form in a basin-range province? As extension and uplift occur, erosion and sedimentation happen simultaneously, but at slower rates. As extension slows down, erosion and sedimentation can overcome mountain building. | EarthScope Consortium
