The Mesozoic Iberia-Eurasia diffuse plate boundary: A wide domain of distributed transtensional deformation progressively focusing along the North Pyrenean Zone

چکیده

Plate kinematic reconstructions available for the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous eastward drift and counterclockwise rotation of Iberian plate imply a major left-lateral motion Iberia with respect to Eurasia. According most authors, this displacement has been accommodated along transform North Pyrenean Zone. However, no relevant field evidence exists proposed >400 km horizontal Fault. Several Permian-Mesozoic basins are distributed around Iberia/Eurasia boundary have more or less inverted during Cenozoic Orogeny (i.e. Chain basins, South Basque-Cantabrian Basin, Parentis Bay Biscay/Asturian margins). All these experienced complex history shared same tectono-stratigraphic evolution, two successive rifting stages: (i) Permian-Triassic following dismantling Variscan belt recording early breakup Pangea (ii) developing after Jurassic post-rift thermal cooling stage. Depending on different techniques investigation interpretation controversial datasets, authors either opening by orthogonal transtensional/pull-apart tectonics basins. In work, we propose reappraisal processes responsible Mesozoic compartmentalization reviewing tectono-sedimentary evolution sedimentary involved in domain.

Lithospheric deformation in the Africa-Iberia plate boundary: Improved neotectonic modeling testing a basal-driven Alboran plate

We present an improved neotectonic numerical model of the complex NW Africa-SW Eurasia plate boundary segment that runs from west to east along the Gloria Fault up to the northern Algerian margin. We model the surface velocity field and the ongoing lithospheric deformation using the most recent version of the thin-shell code SHELLS and updated lithospheric model and fault map of the region. To ...

Plate boundary deformation between the Pacific and North America in the Explorer region

One of the consequences of plate tectonics is that a spreading ridge will eventually approach a subduction zone. The problem whether the possible break-up of the approaching ridge will lead to the development of independent micro-plates, or not, is still unresolved. Some 4 million years ago the interaction between the Juan de Fuca Ridge and the Cascadia subduction zone resulted in ridge fragmen...
