Actividad neotectónica de la Falla de Alentejo-Plasencia en Extremadura (Macizo Hespérico)

Signs of recent tectonic activity are found at the Extremadura sector of Alentejo-Plasencia fault. This fault was active during the alpine compressional period as a sinistral strike-slip fault at the foreland of a collisional zone and presents sorne activity from the Miocene to the Quaternary. Upper...
