Evaporites play a major role in the evolution of an orogenic wedge, modifying the shape and
the deformation kinematics inside the wedge. Salt tectonics can occur at various stages, but …

Abstract The Provence Chain incorporated preexisting halokinetic and basement features
which have played a key role in the structural evolution of the thrust systems. Field structural …

A 220-m thick carbonate-dominated succession has been deposited in shallow-water, saline
lake environments during the early to middle Priabonian (MP17A-MP18 mammal zones) in …

Abstract The Pyrenean-Provence fold-thrust belt is characterized by a geological complexity
arising from superimposed tectonic history and the propagation of the deformation through a …

The integrative analysis of a lacustrine carbonate succession from Butte Iouton hill
(Vistrenque basin, SE France) brings new insights into depositional models and stacking …

A 200-m thick carbonate succession has been deposited in shallow-water, saline lake
environments during the Priabonian-Rupelian in the Issirac Basin (South-East France). The …

It is often difficult to decipher past salt tectonics events in orogenic domains. The
southwestern Alpine foreland in France presents a long and extensive salt tectonics history …

Résumé Le Paléogène des Alpes Maritimes et de Haute-Provence représente une
séquence sédimentaire complète commençant par la Formation à Microcodium continentale …

Abstract Early Late Cretaceous uplift of Provence gave rise to the Durance Isthmus. In the
present study, U–Pb dating on calcite of compressional structures related to Pyrenean …

Evaporites have a strong impact on the structural and sedimentary evolution of sedimentary
basins and fold-and-thrust belts. They also have a thermal conductivity that can be more …
