Abstract The European Variscan belt is a unique orogen that is covered by comprehensive
sets of seismic and potential field data from the Iberian Peninsula in the west to the Polish …

This paper provides a synthesis of current data and interpretations on the crustal structure of
the Pyrenean-Cantabrian orogenic belt, and presents new tectonic models for …

We explore the connections between crustal shortening, volcanism, and mantle dynamics in
the Atlas of Morocco. In response to compressional forces and strain localization, this …

Mediterranean tectonics since the Lower Cretaceous has been characterized by a
multiphase subduction and collision history with temporally and spatially variable, small …

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 …

A new method for modeling the thermal structure of the lithosphere, termed thermal isostasy,
is presented and used to calculate the lithosphere thickness and to predict geothermal heat …

Abstract The Pyrenean Belt ends against the Gulf of Lion passive margin. The mechanism
responsible for dismantling the mountain belt during Oligocene rifting has not yet found a …

We compile an extensive catalog comprising geochemistry and ages of Cenozoic volcanic
provinces in the Mediterranean region, distinguishing between three groups according to …

Abstract The 2020–2021 Santa Fe seismic sequence is the first well‐instrumented and
widely felt seismic series occurred in the Granada basin during the Spanish instrumental …

Abstract The High Atlas belt of Morocco is a doubly vergent intracontinental belt formed
during Cenozoic convergence between the African and Eurasian plates. This belt is …
