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 …

Initial SE-dip** slow subduction of the Ligurian–Tethys lithosphere beneath Africa from
Late Cretaceous to middle Oligocene twisting to a later faster E-dip** subduction of the …

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 …

We propose a review to discuss the large number of studies dealing with the fluid history in
extensional and compressional sedimentary basins that evolved along the Iberian-Eurasian …

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 …

Although the stratigraphy of sedimentary basins depends on the balance between the
magnitude and grain‐size characteristics of the sediment supply (Qs) and the spatial …

Seismic interpretation of the MARCONI deep seismic survey enables recognition of the
upper crustal structure of the eastern part of the Bay of Biscay and the main features of its …

The extent to which heat recorded in orogens reflects thermal conditions inherited from
previous rift-related processes is still debated and poorly documented. As a case study, we …

In natural doubly vergent orogens, the relationship between the pro‐and retro‐wedges is, as
yet, poorly constrained. We present a detailed tectonostratigraphic study of the retro‐wedge …

This review provides a synthesis of the evolution of the Pyrenees since~ 84 Ma and is
uniquely focused on analysing jointly and comparatively its peripheral pro-foreland, retro …
