Evidence of Segmentation in the Iberia–Africa Plate Boundary: A Jurassic Heritage?

Evidence of Segmentation in the Iberia–Africa Plate Boundary: A Jurassic Heritage?

The present structure of the Iberia−Africa plate boundary between the Gorringe Bank and the Algerian Basin is characterized by a highly segmented geometry and diffused seismicity. Filtered Bouguer gravity data show conspicuous highs coinciding with the Gorringe Bank, the Guadalquivir&#...
