The onshore sector of the West Iberian Margin (WIM) was the locus of several cycles of magmatic activity during the Mesozoic, the most voluminous of which was of alkaline nature and occurred between 70 and 100 Ma. This cycle took place in a post-rift environment, during the 35° counter-clockwise rotation of Iberia and initiation of the alpine compression. It includes the subvolcanic complexes of Sintra, Sines, and Monchique, the volcanic complex of Lisbon and several other minor intrusions, covering ...

The Alpine orogeny is well recorded onshore and offshore by tectonic inversion of the Mesozoic rift basins. Large scale linear seamounts (more than 250 km long and with up to 5 km of uplift) involving oceanic and continental lithosphere were carried on top of thrusts, such as the Gorringe seamount and the Estremadura Spur in the SouthWest and West Iberia Margin, respectively. The SouthWest Iberia Margin also recorded the westward migration of the Gibraltar Oceanic slab as the westwards propagation ...

Accordingly, the development of an agronomic itinerary for Ca biofortification of Rocha pears and the assessment of physicochemical deviations prompted this study.

A global view of the Mesozoic-Cenozoic geodynamic evolution of the Iberian microplate is necessary to determine the role of inherited Variscan structures in the configuration of the Alpine Cycle. Furthermore, it is important to reconstruct the extensional Mesozoic geometries of the Iberian margins, presently inverted during the Cenozoic compression. We discuss briefly in this chapter, thanks to a large number of innovative scientific studies, the evolution of the Iberian microplate and of its margins, ...

Positive tectonic inversion of sedimentary basins has been recognized as one of the primary mechanisms of mountain building and intraplate deformation. Reconstructing the tectonic history of basins is relatively easy for the inversion stage but becomes more difficult for the basinal stage, especially when strong deformation involving cleavage development is associated with the subsequent compressional tectonics. Since tectonic markers for the extensional episodes are not commonly well developed, ...

Magnetic fabrics in the Lusitanian basin show extreme variability in the orientation of strain axes during part of its Mesozoic extensional stage. A detailed study of Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) was done in Triassic and Upper Jurassic units in the onshore part of the basin. In the Triassic samples, the magnetic lineation shows a dominant NW–SE orientation, perpendicular to the main normal fault set and also to the extension directions inferred from the analysis of brittle mesostructures. ...

Abstract At the beginning of the Alpine cycle, the breakup of Pangea lead to the early stages of the North Atlantic opening. In the western Iberian sector of the European margin, the Lusitanian basin starts to evolve bordered eastwards by inherited reliefs from the late episodes of the Variscan orogeny. The base unit, the Silves Group, considered not earlier than the Carnian, is mainly siliciclastic and predominantly formed by arcosarenites to feldspar litarenites, coarse to very coarse-grained ( ...

The West and SouthWest Margins of Iberia started their formation as intra-continental rifts during initial break up of Pangea in Triassic times. The tectono-stratigraphic record of the Algarve, Alentejo and Lusitanian basins and their offshore prolongation documents the syn-rift, post-rift and passive margin phases of the rifting process as well as three magmatic cycles of tholeiite to alkaline affinities. Although the Ocean-Continent Transition has been investigated using deep ocean drilling, seismics, ...
