Complex examination of the Upper Paleozoic siliciclastic rocks from southern Transdanubia, SW Hungary—Mineralogical, petrographic, and geochemical study [PDF]
A vertical section of Upper Paleozoic sandstones from southern Transdanubia (Mecsek-Villány area, Tisza mega-unit, Hungary) has been analyzed for major and trace elements, including rare earth elements (REEs).

Radial anisotropy and S-wave velocity depict the internal to external zone transition within the Variscan orogen (NW Iberia) [PDF]
The cross-correlation of ambient noise records registered by seismic networks has proven to be a valuable tool to obtain new insights into the crustal structure at different scales.

Tertiary-Quaternary intra-plate magmatism in Europe and its relationship to mantle dynamics [PDF]
Anorogenic intra-plate magmatism was widespread in Europe from early Tertiary to Recent times, extending west to east from Spain to Bulgaria, and south to north from Sicily to northern Germany. Magmatism is spatially and temporally associated with Alpine-

A Clockwise P-T Path from the Variscan Basement of the Tisza Unit, Pannonian Basin, Hungary
The polymetamorphic basement of the Tisza Unit forms a detachedfragment of the Variscan European foreland of the Neotethyanrealm. A clockwise evolution path of a gneiss-amphibolite complexof the Tisza Unit was reconstructed, investigating the ...

Evidence for surface uplift of the Atlas Mountains and the surrounding peripheral plateaux: Combining apatite fission-track results and geomorphic indicators in the Western Moroccan Meseta (coastal Variscan Paleozoic basement) [PDF]
This work represents an initial attempt to link the evolution of the topography in relation to the general tectonic framework of western Morocco. For this purpose, in a section of the Western Moroccan Meseta different tools are combined in order to ...
