The extension-driven break-up of the Pangean Supercontinent in the present-day Central
and North Atlantic domains commenced during Permo-Triassic times. Permian rift processes …

At the beginning of the Late Triassic, a period of increased precipitation occurred over large
tracts of Central Pangea, the “Carnian Pluvial Event”. It was a short-lived event (> 1 Ma) …

4.1 Background References: Since Michard (1976) synthesis, the Atlas system has been the
subject of a number of geological studies synthesized by Stets & Wurster (1982), Laville …

The Atlas Mountains are classically regarded as a failed Mesozoic rift arm subject to Alpine
inversion, folding and thrusting. Here, we present new integrated structural and …

Raw material and processed samples of a Triassic clay deposit, located at the valley of
Ourika (Morocco), were qualitatively and quantitatively investigated by means of X-ray …

Outcrop analogue studies provide key information for reservoir modelling which is difficult to
obtain from traditional subsurface datasets (ie seismic data, well data). Terrestrial laser …

The use of digital outcrop models in combination with traditional sedimentological field data
improves the accuracy and efficiency of qualitative and quantitative characterization of …

Abstract The High Atlas of Morocco is an aborted rift developed during the Triassic–Jurassic
and moderately inverted during the Cenozoic. The Marrakech High Atlas, with large …

Abstract The High Atlas intracontinental belt is an inverted rift formed along the Northwest
African Craton, between the Central Atlantic Ocean and the Africa-Eurasia plates' …

Abstract The Moroccan Atlas developed through a multiphase tectonic history including
Permian‐Jurassic continental rifting and Cretaceous‐Cenozoic intracontinental shortening …
