Pliocene to Present-day stress field along the western Gibraltar
... Basin. Recent seismic tomography reveals a high velocity slab dipping to the East from the Gibraltar Strait up to 600 km depth bellow the Alboran Sea that could be interpreted as subducted oceanic lithosphere. Although most of the authors agree that the eastward subduction and the back-arc extension ...

The north Pyrenean Front and related foreland basin along the Bay
... In the western, Cantabrian, sector, the North Pyrenean front is shifted to the north and its geometry clearly differs from that to the east. It is a 60 km wide northward-directed blind thrust imbricate stack that previous studies have interpreted as an accretionary prism (fig. 2B). This thrust syst ...
