Mineral deposits associated with continental collision are abundant in many orogenic
systems. However, the metallogenesis of collisional orogens is often poorly understood, due …

Initial SE-dipping slow subduction of the Ligurian–Tethys lithosphere beneath Africa from
Late Cretaceous to middle Oligocene twisting to a later faster E-dipping subduction of the …

The Tethyside orogen, a direct consequence of the separation of the Gondwanaland and the
accretion of Eurasia, is a huge composite orogenic system that was generated during …

Background Leuciscinae is a subfamily belonging to the Cyprinidae fish family that is widely
distributed in Circum-Mediterranean region. Many efforts have been carried out to …

The Pyrenean Mountains represent the westernmost end of the long Alpine-Himalayan
collisional system. The excellent preservation of foreland basin deposits in conjunction with …

This paper discusses the differences in mechanical properties and kinematics between fold-
and-thrust belts detaching on evaporitic décollements and those detaching on stronger …

Geodynamical numerical modeling has been combined with crustal structural restoration of
the central Pyrenees in order to gain insight into fundamental processes that control the …

Three‐dimensional modeling that integrates fluvial sediment transport, crustal‐scale tectonic
deformation, and lithospheric flexural subsidence is carried out to simulate the landscape …

A new crustal-scale cross-section through the Eastern Pyrenees shows a minimum of 125
km of total shortening across the belt. Convergence rates of 6 mm/yr (during early and …

The Pyrenees are a collisional mountain belt formed by convergence between the Afro–
Iberian and European plates. Apatite fission track thermochronology from three vertical …
