The southernmost margin of the Tethys realm during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic: Initial geometry and timing of the inversion processes

TL;DR: The existence of synchronous geodynamic events from one end of the system to the other, although they do not have the same meaning, is emphasized in this article, where two of them are particularly important: the Campanian-Santonian (C-S) event corresponds to obduction and exhumation of high pressure-low-temperature metamorphic rocks around the Arabian promontory, inversion along the margins of the East Mediterranean basins, and lithosphere buckling in the Atlas system (Maghreb and adjacent Sahara platform).
Journal ArticleDOI

Deep structures and breakup along volcanic rifted margins: insights from integrated studies along the outer Vøring Basin (Norway)

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-velocity lower crustal dome marked by a strong amplitude reflection (T Reflection) is described below the north Gjallar Ridge (NGR) near the volcanic plateau formed during the late Paleocene-Early Eocene breakup.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rifted margins: Ductile deformation, boudinage, continentward-dipping normal faults and the role of the weak lower crust

TL;DR: A series of so far unreleased profiles that allow the identification of various rift-related geological processes such as crustal boudinage, ductile shear and low-angle detachment faulting, and a rifting history that differs from the classical models of oceanward-dipping normal faults is presented in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-temperature metamorphism during extreme thinning of the continental crust: a reappraisal of the North Pyrenean passive paleomargin

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a map of HT-LP metamorphism based on a data set of more than 100 peak-temperature estimates obtained using Raman spectroscopy of the carbona-ceous material (RSCM).
Journal ArticleDOI

Extension, crustal structure and magmatism at the outer Vøring Basin, Norwegian margin

TL;DR: In this article, a 2D and 3D multichannel seismic data has improved interpretation of the crustal configuration and structural style along the Norwegian margin, showing that the shallow structure in that basin is directly controlled by a deep-seated, strong, high-amplitude reflection (the T reflection), marking the top of a high-velocity body (V p >7 km s −1 ).
