Plate kinematic reconstructions available for the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous eastward drift and counterclockwise rotation of the Iberian plate imply a major left-lateral motion of …
Abstract The West European collisional Alpine belts are the result of the inversion, initiated in the middle Cretaceous, of the complex western Neotethys and the Atlantic continental rift …
Three crustal-scale sequentially restored cross-sections along the Central External Betic Cordillera enable us to pinpoint the role of extreme crustal thinning, tectonic inheritance and …
Reinterpretation of the Organyà Basin, based on new detailed field observations and subsurface data, emphasizes the key contribution of Upper Triassic evaporites in the tectono …
A high‐resolution carbonate C‐isotope stratigraphy for the Aptian is presented for the Cau core (Spain). The biostratigraphically calibrated C‐isotope stratigraphy of the core is used to …
Abstract Eustatic controls on Early Cretaceous (Aptian) sedimentation in the western Tethys are discerned in outcrops of carbonate platforms that developed in the Maestrat rift basin …
Deserts are stressful environments where the living beings must acquire different strategies to survive due to the water stress conditions. From the late Albian to the early Cenomanian …
Abstract In the northern Iberian Peninsula, the Pyrenean-Cantabrian orogenic belt extends EW for ca. 1000 km between the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. This orogen …
Abstract The Bay of Biscay-Pyrenean rift system is a world-class example of an inverted hyperextended rift. However, tectonic questions such as the linkage of the extensional …
