Descrição
Resumo:Realiable paleomagnetie data from the emerged margins of the Valencia Trough include results from Triassic, Jurassic, Paleogene and Miocene rocks. From these data, a clockwise rotation of the Catalan Coastal relative to the western part of Iberia is apparent. In addition, a clockwise rotation is indicated by magnetic directions from the Balearics with respect to those of the Catalan margin. Major Neogene structures in the evolution of the Valencia Trough and thin skinned tectonics, rather than crustal-scale block motions, together play a major role in the evolution of the Balearic lslands, and probably even on a larger scale, of the External Zones of the Subbetic.
