This final volume of the Geology of Iberia focuses on the active geological processes in Iberia including seismicity and active faulting as well as the modern landscapes in the Iberian Peninsula.
Sep 1, 2016 · We constructed a geological map, a 3D model and cross-sections, carried out a structural analysis, determined the stress fields and tectonic transport vectors, restored a cross section and performed a subsidence analysis to unravel the kinematic evolution of the NE emerged portion of the Asturian Basin (NW Iberian Peninsula), where Jurassic rocks crop out.
Cecilio Quesada, José Tomás Oliveira. Enriches readers’ understanding of the evolution of the Iberian microplate over the last 600 million years. Reviews in detail key recent advances on the geology of the Iberian Peninsula from a geodynamic perspective. Summarizes the latest studies on the record of the Cadomian, Variscan, and Alpine ...
