The Tell-Rif (Tell in Algeria and Tunisia; Rif in Morocco) is the orogenic system fringing to
the south the West Mediterranean basins. This system comprises three major tectonic …

The Iberian microcontinent stands out because of its intense Alpine intraplate deformation.
This is reflected in a large number of Cenozoic basins of very different sizes. Most of the …

We present a geodynamic reconstruction of the Central–Western Mediterranean and
neighboring areas during the last 50Myr, including magmatological and tectonic …

The western Mediterranean recorded subduction rollback, slab segmentation and
separation. Here we address the questions of what caused Oligocene rollback initiation, and …

Estimating shortening in collision belts is critical to reconstruct past plate motions. Balanced
cross‐section techniques are efficient in external domains but lack resolution in the …

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 …

Abstract During the Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous, Iberia experienced extensional and
transtensional stresses leading to a complex rifting time interval. Africa–America–Europe …

In the interior of the Iberian Peninsula, the main geomorphic features, mountain ranges and
basins, seems to be arranged in several directions whose origin can be related to the N–S …

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 …

The study of fluvial network rearrangement provides a key to understand past and future
landscape evolution. Large perturbations of hydrographic basins such as the change from …
