This article presents an overview of regional extensional deformation across the north-facing
southern Tethyan continental passive margin of Tunisia during the Aptian and Albian syn-rift …

Surface and subsurface data together with balanced cross-sections are used to emphasize
the structural style and regional-scale deformation of the Southern Atlas Front in Tunisia and …

Abstract In northern Tunisia, the Cretaceous period is described as a spectacular episode of
soft-sediment deformations exposed for several kilometers. These gravity-driven …

Hercynian crustal consolidation of Laurussia and Western Gondwana in the late
Carboniferous was immediately followed by several Permian–Early Cretaceous rift events …

Surface and subsurface data are used to illustrate the halokinetic style, structural evolution
and kinematics of the Lansarine–Baouala salt structure in the Alpine domain of Tunisia. It …

Mass transport deposits (MTDs) contain deformation structures often that are used to
determine the kinematics of palaeo-mass flows and hence the orientation of the original …

New stratigraphic data, lithostratigraphic correlations, and fault kinematic analysis are used
to discuss the basin geometry and sedimentation patterns of the northeastern Tunisia during …

Abstract The Jebel Oust region (north-eastern Tunisia) recorded two levels of marine black
shale in the Lower Cretaceous marly series. Geodynamic evolution, biostratigraphic and …

Wide variety of salt structures–from typical diapirs to large allochthonous salt sheets–are
recognized in the Northern Tunisian Atlas. In this study, we present for the first time the …

This chapter provides an overview of data-compilation, recently published, as well as newly
collected data on the structure and evolution of Southern Atlas front in Tunisia. The Northern …
