Tertiary-Quaternary subduction processes and related magmatism in the Alpine-Mediterranean region [PDF]
, 2006 During Tertiary to Quaternary times, convergence between Eurasia and Africa resulted in a variety of collisional orogens and different styles of subduction in the Alpine-Mediterranean region.

Focal Mechanisms for Subcrustal Earthquakes Beneath the Gibraltar Arc
Geophysical Research Letters, 2019 AbstractIntermediate deep earthquakes are usually associated with active subduction, and show mostly dip‐slip faulting mechanisms aligned with the downgoing oceanic lithosphere. Forty‐two new focal mechanisms from 50‐ to 100‐km depth beneath the Gibraltar Arc and Alboran Sea show different characteristics.

Some geophysical constraints to dynamic processes in the Southwestern Mediterranean
Annals of Geophysics, 1996 The total tectonic subsidence, thermal state and seismotectonic regime have been analysed to better constrain the dynamic processes which originated the basins of the Southwestern Mediterranean.

Mediterranean Sea response to climate change in an ensemble of twenty first century scenarios [PDF]
, 2015 The Mediterranean climate is expected to become warmer and drier during the twenty-first century. Mediterranean Sea response to climate change could be modulated by the choice of the socio-economic scenario as well as the choice of the boundary ...

Finite-frequency Rayleigh wave tomography of the western Mediterranean: Mapping its lithospheric structure [PDF]
, 2016 We present a 3-D shear wave velocity model for the crust and upper mantle of the western Mediterranean from Rayleigh wave tomography. We analyzed the fundamental mode in the 20¿167 s period band (6.0¿50.0 mHz) from earthquakes recorded by a number of ...

Stratigraphy and paleoceanography of a topography-controlled contourite drift in the Pen Duick area, southern Gulf of Cadiz [PDF]
, 2014 The northern part of the Gulf of Cádiz has and still is receiving a lot of attention from the scientific community due to (amongst others) the recent IODP Expedition 339.
