Present-day uplift of the European Alps: Evaluating mechanisms and models of their relative contributions
Recent measurements of surface vertical displacements of the European Alps show a
correlation between vertical velocities and topographic features, with widespread uplift at …

Denudation history and palaeogeography of the Pyrenees and their peripheral basins: an 84-million-year geomorphological perspective
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 …
