Triggering mechanisms of tsunamis in the Gulf of Cadiz and the Alboran Sea: an overview
Abstract The Gulf of Cadiz and the Alboran Sea are characterized by tectonic activity due to
oblique convergence at the boundary between the Eurasian and Nubian plates. This activity …

Hydrochemical and isotopic characterization of groundwater in the Ghis-Nekor plain (northern Morocco)
The coastal aquifer of Ghis-Nekor (Morocco) was studied to identify the major processes
causing salinization of groundwater. In fact, a geochemical approach multi tracer (general …

Earthquake crisis unveils the growth of an incipient continental fault system
Large continental faults extend for thousands of kilometres to form boundaries between rigid
tectonic blocks. These faults are associated with prominent topographic features and can …

Active tectonics of the Northern Rif (Morocco) from geomorphic and geochronological data
We present results of a geomorphological and morphotectonic analysis of the northeastern
part of the Rif. We show that the present day kinematics of the Rif is characterized by active …

Seismic risk in the city of Al Hoceima (north of Morocco) using the vulnerability index method, applied in Risk-UE project
Al Hoceima is one of the most seismic active regions in north of Morocco. It is demonstrated
by the large seismic episodes reported in seismic catalogs and research studies. However …
