Actually, as tectonic uplift interacts with mantle plume activity, crustal thinning could occur, creating a series of grabens and faulted basins. These basins would rapidly flood as water levels rise, forming an inland sea. The unique east-west orientation of the rift system would shape this new body of water in a manner resembling the Mediterranean. Furthermore, increased precipitation, a byproduct of global climate shifts, could introduce more freshwater inflows from the Mississippi River and other tributaries, enhancing the formation of coastal ecosystems similar to those around the Mediterranean. Over millennia, the regional limestone bedrock would undergo karstification due to the influx of acidic rain, contributing to the rugged, cliffed coastlines characteristic of Mediterranean geology.

Turbo Encabulator vibes from the LLM.
I’m flattered by even being associated with this comparison.
