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 …

[HTML][HTML] Evolution of a low convergence collisional orogen: a review of Pyrenean orogenesis
The Pyrenees is a collisional orogen built by inversion of an immature rift system during
convergence of the Iberian and European plates from Late Cretaceous to late Cenozoic. The …

Evolution of the Alpine orogenic belts in the Western Mediterranean region as resolved by the kinematics of the Europe-Africa diffuse plate boundary
P Angrand, F Mouthereau - BSGF-Earth Sciences …, 2021 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Abstract The West European collisional Alpine belts are the result of the inversion, initiated

Detailed tectonic reconstructions of the Western Mediterranean region for the last 35 Ma, insights on driving mechanisms
Slab retreat, slab tearing and interactions of slabs are first-order drivers of the deformation of
the overriding lithosphere. An independent description of the tectonic evolution of the back …

Paleomagnetic Evidence for Pre‐21 Ma Independent Drift of South Sardinia From North Sardinia‐Corsica:“Greater Iberia” Versus Europe
It is unanimously acknowledged that the Corsica‐Sardinia microplate rotated
counterclockwise (CCW) by 40–50° between 21 and 15 Ma, synchronous with Liguro …

Post-orogenic exhumation in the western Pyrenees: evidence for extension driven by pre-orogenic inheritance
C Fillon, F Mouthereau, S Calassou, R Pik… - Journal of the …, 2021 - lyellcollection.org
We discuss the drivers of the Pyrenean post-orogenic exhumation, including drainage
migration, flexural rebound and tectonic reactivation. We provide new low-temperature …
