A Geological History for the Alboran Sea Region

open access: yes, 2021
55 pages, 13 figures The Alboran Basin is a Neogene-Quaternary extensional basin located within the Betic-Rif alpine cordillera. The region where the current basin is located holds great oceanographic relevance, as it lies in the area of connection between the western (Atlantic Ocean basin) and eastern seas (ocean basins of the Ligurian Tethys and then

Two decades of mesoscale phenomena on either side of the Strait of Gibraltar

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2012
Mesoscale circulation patterns in the adjacent basins of the Strait of Gibraltar were investigated by means of altimetry data. In the Gulf of Cádiz, the pattern is relatively stable with two gyres: a cyclonic gyre close to the southern Iberian coast and ...

Incorporating Fossil Data Into Ecological Niche Models Enhances Predictions of the Past Distribution of Macaronesian‐Mediterranean Strawberry Trees

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We demonstrate that fossil‐informed SDMs not only improve spatial accuracy and ecological realism in past projections, but also provide an external form of validation that traditional hindcasts often lack. ABSTRACT Hindcasting is a widely used method to predict the past distribution of plant species. However, its reliability is often constrained by the
