TL;DR: In this article, a set of almost linear and sub-par dextral strike-slip faults, the SWIM1 Faults, that form a narrow band of deformation over a length of 600 km coincident with a small circle centred on the pole of rotation of Africa with respect to Eurasia, was mapped using a new swath bathymetry compilation available in the area offshore SW Portugal.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the data from a recent magnetic compilation by Verhoefet et al. off west Africa were used in combination with data in the western Atlantic to review the Mesozoic plate kinematic evolution of the central North Atlantic.

TL;DR: The Gulf of Cadiz is characterized by widespread seismicity, compressional and strike-slip fault plane solutions and by a large, elongated positive free-air gravity anomaly.

TL;DR: Martins and Mendes Victor as discussed by the authors reported that the 1755 Lisbon earthquake was the most destructive cataclysm recorded in western Europe since the Roman Republic, with an estimated earthquake magnitude Mw ∼8.5 and estimated tsunami magnitude of Mt= Mw= 8.5.
