Kinematics of the western Mediterranean
Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 1989SummaryThe kinematic understanding of the relationship between relative plate motion and the structure of orogenic belts depends upon a knowledge of relative plate motion across the plate boundary system, the relative motion of small blocks and flakes within the system, an evaluation of orogenic body forces, and an understanding of the thermomechanical

This report explores the impact of the first five years of implementation of the western Mediterranean multiannual plan (also known as the ‘West Med MAP’, hereafter: ‘the MAP'), the first European Union fisheries management plan for the conservation and sustainable exploitation of a group of demersal stocks in the western Mediterranean Sea.

The Valencia trough (western Mediterranean): An overview
Tectonophysics, 1992Abstract The Valencia trough, located between the Spanish mainland and the Balearic islands, corresponds to a late Oligocene to recent sedimentary basin that is characterized by a highly attenuated continental crust. Its northwestern part evolved in response to a late Oligocene to early Miocene rifting phase that was followed by a period of post-rift

Western Mediterranean attitudes
AbstractGeneral attitudes to sodomy in these societies are hard to judge. Fierce disapproval coexisted with some apparent tolerance. The idea that this sin could blight a whole community, thereby provoking divine judgement, persisted. Attitudes to sodomy also interacted with assumptions about social hierarchy, though the modern idea that the desire foropenaire +1 more source
Honeybees of the Western Mediterranean
1988The great variety of mellifera subspecies found around the Mediterranean fully justifies consideration of this basin as the main gene center of the species. Out of 24 subspecies described in this overview, 13 are based in the coastal areas of the Mediterranean.

Evolution of the Western Mediterranean
2012The western Mediterranean is the younger part of the Mediterranean, being a basin formed during the period from late Oligocene to the present. The western Mediterranean consists of a series of sub-basins, such as the Alboran, Valencia, Provenc ̧al, Algerian and Tyrrhenian Seas (Figs. 12.1 and 12.2).

A Tomographic View on Western Mediterranean Geodynamics
2004During the Cenozoic, the Western Mediterranean region has experienced a complex subduction history which involved the destruction of the Late Triassic/Jurassic Ligurian ocean and the West Alpine-Tethys. Lithosphere remnants of this evolution have been detected in the upper mantle by seismic tomography imaging.

The Western Mediterranean lands
AbstractThe evidence does not permit a proper survey of the distribution of sodomy in these Christian Western Mediterranean territories. Many Europeans believed that Italy was the most sodomitical society. Prima facie support for this may be found in the Florentine evidence; but that was generated by an unusually lenient legal regime.openaire +1 more source
Subduction zones of the western Mediterranean.
2008Subduction zones of the western Mediterranean have been extensively studied during the last three decades, through their geologic, petrologic, geophysical, kinematic, and structural features. A synthesis of available data, along with their tectonic interpretation, has been published by FACCENNA et alii (2001).
