Abstract The Northern Aegean region preserves a complex deformation pattern shaped by Miocene extension driven by retreat of the Hellenic subduction system, later overprinted by Plio–Pleistocene transtension linked to the westward propagation of the North Anatolian Fault (NAF). Although numerous structural, geophysical and geochronological studies have

Abstract Evaluating the state of activity of Deep‐Seated Gravitational Slope Deformation (DSGSD) is a challenge that requires multidisciplinary analytical approaches. This research focuses on the slope‐scale gravitational process, framing the role of the Quaternary morphodynamics of a river valley where multiple DSGSDs coexist, to reconstruct the ...

Evidence for Miocene subduction beneath the Alboran Sea (Western Mediterranean) from 40Ar/39Ar age dating and the geochemistry of volcanic rocks from holes 977A and 978A [PDF]
Volcanic pebbles in gravels from Sites 977 and 978 in the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean) were dated (using the 40Ar/ 39Ar single-crystal laser technique) and analyzed for their major- and trace-element compositions (determined by X-ray ...

Basin‐scale correlation of Messinian salinity crisis (MSC) deposits across the Apennine–Albanide foreland basin system integrating outcrop and subsurface data. ABSTRACT We reconstructed the geological evolution of the Albanides during the Messinian salinity crisis (MSC), based on the integration of outcrop and subsurface data from both onshore (peri ...

Integrated stratigraphy and astrochronology of the Messinian GSSP at Oued Akrech (Atlantic Morocco) [PDF]
A much improved high-resolution integrated stratigraphy (calcareous plankton biostratigraphy, magnetostratigraphy, cyclostratigraphy) is presented for the classic section of Oued Akrech (Atlantic Morocco) straddling the Tortonian^Messinian boundary ...

Seismic profile across the Guyana Basin showing the main tectonostratigraphic units and an order‐of‐magnitude increase in sedimentation rates since the Middle Miocene corresponding with the onset of sedimentation dominated by mass transport deposits. ABSTRACT The Guyana Basin developed in an evolving tectonic setting, but a lack of subsurface data has ...

ABSTRACT Aim Understanding the evolutionary history and demographic dynamics of narrow‐ranged endemics is essential for predicting their future under climate change. We investigated the origins, population trajectories, and conservation outlook of three endemic spurges (Euphorbia gayi, E. valliniana, E. variabilis) restricted to the south‐western Alps,

Incipient Continent-Continent Collision between the Eratosthenes Seamount and Cyprus / Eastern Mediterranean [PDF]
Earth processes related to incipient continent-continent collision have been studied via the example of Cyprus and the Eratosthenes Seamount in the eastern Mediterranean.

Messinian paleoenvironmental evolution in the lower Guadalquivir Basin (SW Spain) based on benthic foraminifera. [PDF]
Benthic foraminiferal assemblages of a drill core from the lower Guadalquivir Basin (northern Gulf of Cádiz, SW Spain) have been analyzed in order to reconstruct the paleoenvironmental evolution in the vicinity of the Betic seaways during the Messinian ...

ABSTRACT In this study, we explored the population genetic structure and its relation to environmental adaptations of the dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) in the western Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. Although previously two populations within the Mediterranean Sea were identified, recent evidence suggests more complex structuring.
