Повний текст джерелаVolcanic passive margins, that represent more than the three quarters of continental margins worldwide, are privileged witnesses of the lithospheric extension processes that form new oceanic basins. We explore the structural and temporal relationships that exist between the development of the major thinning and stretching structures and the magmatic production associated to them. To do so, we will focus our work on the Afar triple junction, Ethiopia, a nascent volcanic passive margin. The rationale of this work is threefold. First, we present fieldwork analysis with lavas geochronology to determine the timing and style of the rift formation, since the early syn-rift period to present days. Second, we determine how the melting regime evolved in response to the deformation of the crust, through a geochemical study of the pre- to syn-rift lavas. Third, we present a synthetic regional that describes the evolution of the volcanic margins in relationship with their segmentation. Central Afar deformed as a magmatic wide rift, associated with major detachment faults. Punctual tectonic phases alternate with protracted magmatic periods. Early syn-rift segmentation controls the structural style, magma emplacement and asymmetry of the margins. The break-up is reached when the initial crust is thinned and replaced by mafic material to form the first oceanic crust

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis focus in the identification of geochemical tracers and effects of fluid that interact with basement and sedimentary rocks in hyperextended systems. The investigation of such fluids is based on geological observation, geochemical analyses and geophysical data from fossil hyperextended rift systems exposed in the Alps and in the West Pyrenees, and the present-day distal margins of Iberia and Newfoundland. Two types of fluids were identified during this study. The first type, referred to as continental crust-related fluids, has a signature of Si and Ca. The second type, referred to as mantle-related fluids, has a signature of Si, Mg, Fe, Mn, Ca, Ni, Cr and V. The fluid percolation is strongly related to the formation of extensional detachment faults and the evolution of hyperextended systems. Fluid flow in these systems has major implications for the nature of sediments, rheological changes and chemical modifications of the Earth’s reservoirs throughout its evolution

Повний текст джерелаSeismic and drill hole data from deep-water distal rifted margins allow to understand the architecture and evolution of these yet little investigated domain. Nonetheless, the thermal evolution is poorly constrained even if hydrothermal systems play a key role in determining the heat fluxes. This Thesis aims to investigate breccias, cements, veins and replacement minerals within the pre- to post-rift sediments that could testify the space-time evolution of rock-fluid interactions. Two fossil analogues are studied: the Adriatic distal margin and the Pyrenean hyper-extended system. Field, petrography and geochemical analyses reveal a strong heterogeneity in the composition of the fluids as well as their hydrothermal features. Two main types of fluids occur: carbonate-rich fluids refer to early rifting phases dominated by high-angle normal faults; silica-rich fluids are related to the last rifting stages characterized by low-angle detachment faults exhuming upper crust and mantle-related rocks. The results of this Thesis highlight how specific changes in the chemistry of the fluid system are intimate lylinked to the tectonic evolution of rifted margins

Повний текст джерелаThe Rif belt (northern Morocco) is a mountain chain at the junction between the Mediterranean and Central Atlantic Domains, representing the western edge of the Maghrebides System. It belongs to a much larger orogeny, the Mediterranean Alpine belts extending from the Western Mediterranean up to the Himalayas. The Rif belt results from the collision between two continental domains initially separated by the Maghrebian Tethys.This belt is classically subdivided into: (1) Internal zones (or Internal Rif), is an allochthonous metamorphic domain. (2) Flysch zones (the original cover of the Maghrebian Tethys). (3) External zones (or External Rif) representing the North African margin remnants.Despite spectacular compressional events, the Rif represents a remarkable place for the understanding of rifting and oceanization mechanisms and their incorporation in mountain belts, because remnants of the Mesozoic North African rifted margin are especially well preserved in its external zones. Especially, the External Rif conserves characteristics of the distal margin. This thesis presents detailed field evidence and geochronological data from two subunits of the External Rif, the Mesorif, and the Intrarif.- The Mesorif preserves a major rifting phase during the Middle Jurassic, characterizing the formation of the Mesozoic North African margin. It presents particular lithostratigraphic associations of mafic intrusive rocks overlain by dismembered and discontinuous blocks of Lower Jurassic carbonates covered by Middle to Upper Jurassic sediments. U-Pb zircon dating of 4 samples from the intrusive has been done, showing ages close to the Triassic-Jurassic boundary (195-200 Ma). From a petrographic and chronologic point of view, the intrusive magmatism, corresponds to the CAMP (Central Atlantic Magmatic Province), known around the Central Atlantic.- The Intrarif displays the exhumed mantle domain, exposed in the Beni-Malek massif, consisting on highly serpentinized peridotites exhibiting ophicalcites with uppermost Jurassic limestones resting conformably on top. This suggests that the exhumation of the mantle occurred at the distal part of the North African Mesozoic margin at this time. Altogether, these observations enable us to discuss the architecture and evolution of the western part of the North African rifted margin.Moreover, the location of the Rif, in between the Central Atlantic and the Alpine/Maghrebian Tethys, enables to investigate the connection between these two oceanic domains during the Mesozoic. However, thanks to the new concepts and models developed since this period, we are able to propose a renewed scenario for the building of this margin. As we will see this scenario implies poly-phase rifting, magmatic activity and mantle exhumation.Later on, by the Late Cretaceous, the North African margin has suffered a complete different history, passing from a passive margin to a convergence setting, affecting the whole Tethys Realm. The External Rif presents several features that are unusual in the external zones of a mountain belt:-They record poly-phase deformation events with evidence for an early and initial (pre-Oligocene) contractional event occurring before the Miocene thrusting of the Internal Units over the External Units.-They include the presence of External Metamorphic Massifs (EMM) recording a HP-LT metamorphic gradient.-They exhibit large allochthonous thrust-sheets identified since a long time across the whole External Rif.The thesis is based on the onshore study of the geodynamic evolution of the Rif belt since the earliest stages of the North African Mesozoic margin formation, through the compressional stages of mountain building, up to its present day position

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis presents a combined analysis of continental and marine domains of the conjugate margins of the eastern Gulf of Aden along the last 20 Ma. The main objective of the research is to understand the evolution of the sedimentary architecture in the early stages of the formation of deep basins of stretched continental margins. The mechanisms monitoring the implementation of gravity-driven sedimentation during the early subsidence stages are specified. This integrated study, takes into account the tectono-sedimentary processes operating from the watershed to the continental slope and the deep basin. This study has allowed us to constrain the post-rift evolution of the sedimentation and related structures of these stretched continental margins, through multibeam data, seismic reflection, Chirp data, analysis of sedimentary cores and cosmogenic nuclides dating of Quaternary marine terraces. The interaction between external controlling factors (climate, eustasy) and the durability of the structural segmentation are responsible of the lateral variability of the sedimentary structures over short distance along the conjugate margin of the eastern Gulf of Aden. The main structures inherited from the rifting stage are reactiviated during a post-rift uplift of the margins. This study constitutes a model of the tectono-sedimentary evolution, which will enable to better constrain the sedimentary architecture of continental margins in more advanced stages of evolution

Повний текст джерелаPassive margins are intra-plate lithospheric structures located at the transition between continental and oceanic crust. Because of their location on the border of continents, passive margins record sediment transfer, produced by erosion of continental relief far from the margins, and complex and low intensity deformations produced by intrinsic processes (eg, flexural isostasy, thermal subsidence), intra-plate deformations, and plate boundary deformation. The sedimentary accumulation in basins and the continental denudation result in local, regional, and global processes with complex coupling. Up to the present, published studies on passive margins have generally been segmented between, unstretched and transitional domains and stretched domain of passive margin. To improve our understanding of post-rift deformation and recording of passive margin, we have done a new study incorporating the margin since unstretched domain to stretched domain. We used in this study, a new 3D numerical model coupling thermal processes, the flexural isostasy and surface processes

Повний текст джерелаThe Eastern Mediterranean owes its complex nature to the movement of Africa, Arabia and Eurasia. The recent gas discoveries in the Levant Basin (2009) provoked the necessity of necessity of conducting a combined (seismic and field) study to better understand the geological evolution of the Basin. The combination of geophysical and field data allows the conceptualization of onshore and, offshore 3D models in order to characterize the tectonostratigraphic evolution of this area and eventually trace the main sources and pathways that contributed to the infilling of the Levant Basin. The evolution of the Levant Basin is marked by the transition from a pure carbonate system to a mix system (carbonate /siliciclastic) during the Cenozoic. The Eratosthenes block corresponds to a fault block platform. Four major seismic sequences, characterized by periods of aggradation, retrogradation and progradation, punctuated by major unconformities and drowning surfaces have been recognized on the Eratosthenes Seamount. These periods are: the Late Jurassic; the Early Cretaceous, the Late Cretaceous and the Miocene. The initiation of the collision during the Miocene between the African and Eurasian plates coincides with the uplift of the Eratosthenes Seamount with a peak during the upper Miocene (pre-Messinian Salinity Crisis) followed by its northward tilting under Cyprus thrusting. We show that the collision of the two plates caused the formation of small basins in southern part of Cyprus; a piggyback basin (Polis), and a flexural basin (Limassol) that were controlled by the different substratum of the Mesozoic sediments

Повний текст джерелаSeismic reflection profiles of Volcanic Passive Margins show a two-domain reflective lower crust. The particular reflectors are interpreted as mafic intrusions associated to the margin evolution.From those geophysical observations it is not possible to understand the consequences of mafic magma emplacement on the rheology and effective deformation of volcanic margins lower crust. This thesis explores two geologic examples of outcropping lower crusts affected by important volumes of magma during their extensional story: the Ivrea Zone (Italian Alps) and Seiland (Finmarkian Caledonides). An important field study associated to geochemical and isotopic analyses, and to Patersonapparatus deformation experiences led to (1) define a synthetic structure of an extensional lower crust affected by one or more major magmatic events and to indentify a ductile middle crust in the Ivrea Zone where roots the upper crust faults, (2) show the rheologic and deformation evolution of the lower crust in relation to magma emplacement timing, (3) characterize, from Seiland observations, the crustmantle interface in an extensional System. The whole study shows the complexity of the temporal, spatial and structural relationships between mafic rocks (as magma and as crystallised rock) and extensional deformation in the lower crust

Повний текст джерелаLithosphere extension and consecutive breakup above a melting mantle lead to the formation of volcanic passive margins. All volcanic margins developed in continental areas subjected to long-term extension, leading to the formation of sedimentary basins. While these volcanic margins are usually offshore and are studied only by geophysical methods, the Greenland coasts offer an onshore proximal part of volcanic margins. The objective of this work is to the study of the spatio-temporal transition between a sedimentary basin to a volcanic-type passive margin. It considers the case of the geological example of the SE Baffin Bay area (the central west Greenland margin), especially its structural and thermal evolution. The study area is characterised by a rifted sedimentary basin which evolves to a volcanic margin associated with the Eocene lithosphere breakup between the Greenland plate and North America. All the structures can be observed in an outcropping area of about 200x 300 km: the rift border faults along the basement, the tectonized sedimentary pile, the overlapping and sealing of the sedimentary basin by Palaeocene volcanic traps and the Eocene inner SDR whose development is coeval with the lithosphere breakup. The development of the Cretaceous/Lower Paleocene sedimentary basin is characterized by two successive rifting episodes separated by a thermal subsidence period. The first rifting episode was initiated in the lower Cretaceous following ~N020E extension. This episode is poorly constrained and seems to be controlled by the inheritage structure of the Greenland Precambrian basement. The second rifting episode of Late Cretaceous presents an E-W to N060 extensional trend. This episode predates the extrusion of Paleocene hyalloclastites in a residual lacustrine basin. The transition from a sedimentary rifting 'stage' to a volcanic margin stage is characterized by the concentration of deformation to the west (i. E. Towards the oceanic crust). This syn-magmatic rifting episode is characterized by the oceanward flexure of the thick piles of Paleogene basalts and the onset formation of Seaward dipping reflectors (SDR) which establish the 3D structure. The development of the SDR is accommodated by arrays of continentward dipping detachment faults localized in the continent-ocean transition area. The syn-magmatic extensional trend is generally orthogonal to the margin flexure. This stage is followed by a more homogenous N-S syn-magmatic extension, which presents an Eocene (C24) age. This extension is the result of the probable earliest stage of oceanization in the Baffin Bay and then a global plate reorganisation in the North Atlantic area. A combined study of RockEval, vitrinite reflectance and magnetic mineralogy is performed from claystones samples collected in the area to assess the thermal evolution of sedimentary basin before and during magmatism. The RockEval and vitrinite reflectance indicated a predominance of type III organic matter and showed an oceanward increasing maturity, as a consequence of the increasing burial depth. The study of the isothermal remnant magnetization (IRM) at high and low temperatures and the study of magnetic susceptibility of claystones showed the existence of special magnetic assemblages with increasing burial. This indicator was used to constrain the thermal evolution combined to data from Rock-Eval and vitrinite reflectance. The results show that the sediments are immature to early mature, implying a moderate impact of local magmatic intrusions in the maturation of organic matter. A thermo-structural model of the west Greenland margin is also presented and completed by the structural study of the analogue Vøring margin

Повний текст джерелаThis PhD thesis presents the first source-to-sink study of the African Atlantic Equatorial margin. We established new Meso-Cenozoic paleogeographic and structural reconstructions, integrating the West African sub-continent and the Equatorial Atlantic Ocean, based on a new mapping method defining both erosion limits of preserved deposits and their minimum original extension. We show the evolution over 200 Myrs of the eroding (sources) and accumulating domains (sinks) at continental scale. We demonstrate in particular that during the Cretaceous, a large Saharan intracratonic basin was exporting sediments toward both the Tethys and the future Atlantic Equatorial Ocean. The fragmentation of this basin occurred in the Oligocene, by the growth of the Hoggar swell that isolated the present-day small residual depot-centers. The development of this specific "basin and swell" topography results from the superimposition of various deformation wavelength at continental scale combining a marginal upwarp along the equatorial margin and a hot spot swell. We then characterized, from the interpretation of seismic data and well logs, the segmentation of the Equatorial Atlantic passive margin and the stratigraphic architecture of the post-rift Upper Cretaceous sedimentary wedge. We show that the proximal parts of the Late Cretaceous sedimentary wedge are only preserved along divergent segments of the margin and not along transform segments. We interpret this differential preservation as the result of a greater uplift, during the early post-rift, in the proximal parts of the transform segments preventing the preservation of the proximal terms of the sedimentary systems. The transform segments are associated with narrow necking zone, resulting in greater flexural uplift than divergent segments showing wider necking zones, in particular during the early post-rift. The characterization of the stratigraphic architecture of the post-rift sedimentary wedge then allowed for the quantification of accumulation history in the passive margin basins. New low-temperature thermochronological data (AFTA and Apatite (U-Th-Sm)/He) acquired at the University of Glasgow on the samples of three regional transects perpendicular to the margin allowed for the quantification of the denudation history and eroded volume on the continental domain. These data shows that the major thermal event recorded by those samples is the cooling phase related to the erosion of a rift-related topography along the margin. Erosion and accumulation budgets fall within the same order of magnitude. During some given periods (Late Cretaceous and since the Late Miocene), excess in accumulation may be associated with the reworking of sediments previously stored within intracontinental basins or on the shelf of the margin

Vários trabalhos têm tentado abordar a evolução das margens conjugadas do Atlântico, incluindo o nordeste do Brasil e o oeste da África. Entretanto, o avanço de pesquisas anteriores tem sido dificultado em razão da falta de dados na região marginal da porção oriental do nordeste do Brasil, principalmente na área inserida entre a Zona de Cisalhamento de Pernambuco e o Alto de Touros. Este fato tem imposto limitações ao desenvolvimento de modelos regionais sobre a evolução geotectônica e paleogeográfica desta região, assim como na correlação com sua contraparte na África. Nesta dissertação é apresentada uma investigação realizada com base em dados gravimétricos, magnéticos e sísmicos regionais. Os resultados mostraram que esta região representa um alto do embasamento com a orientação regional das principais estruturas tectônicas (ENE-WSW), ortogonais as estruturas desenvolvidas durante o processo de abertura das bacias da Paraíba e da Plataforma de Natal (NNE-SSW e NNW-SSE). Sobre o embasamento continental formou-se uma plataforma estreita com uma cobertura sedimentar pouco espessa (0,8-2,5 km) e uma quebra abrupta da plataforma, criando uma vasta zona de bypass através do talude. A análise de uma seção sísmica profunda revelou que a crosta continental afinada (crosta transicional) representa uma estreita zona e que o limite crosta continental-oceânica (COB) está localizado a aproximadamente 100 km a leste da atual linha de costa, na Bacia da Paraíba, e a 70 km, na Bacia da Plataforma de Natal. A modelagem geofísica, integrada com a interpretação sísmica, indica que esta região é caracterizada por um afinamento abrupto da crosta continental, com a consequente ascensão súbita da Moho. Também há evidências da existência de uma zona de crosta continental extremamente afinada, a qual foi interpretada como crosta proto-oceânica. Estes novos dados demonstram que esta área apresenta fortes similaridades com margens rifteadas não vulcânicas ou pobres em magma.
Several studies have tried to address the evolution of the Atlantic conjugate margins, including Northeast Brazil and West Africa. However, past research advances has been hindered by a lack of data for the marginal region in the eastern portion of northeastern Brazil, extending from the Pernambuco Shear Zone to the Touros High. This situation has imposed serious limitations on the development of a regional view of the geotectonic and paleogeographic evolution of this area and on correlations with regional counterparts in Africa. Here, we present an investigation using regional gravimetric, magnetic and seismic data. The results show that this region represents a basement high with regional orientation of tectonic structures (ENE-WSW) orthogonal at structures developed during the open processes of the Paraíba and Natal Platform Basins (NNE-SSW and NNW-SSE). The continental basement forming a narrow platform with a thin sedimentary cover (0.8-2.5 km) and an abrupt shelf break, which created a large bypass zone towards the slope. The analysis of a deep seismic section revealed that thinned continental crust (transitional crust) occupies a narrow zone and that the continental-oceanic boundary (COB) is located approximately 100 km to the east of the present coastline, at Paraíba Basin, and 70 km, at Natal Platform Basin. Geophysical modeling integrated with interpretation of the seismic data suggests that this region is characterized by an abrupt thinning of continental crust, with an accompanying sudden rise of the Moho. There are also indications for the existence of a zone of extremely thinned continental crust, which was interpreted as protooceanic crust. Our findings suggest that the study area shows strong similarities to nonvolcanic or magma-poor rifted margins.

This thesis investigates three processes that control the evolution of oceanic margins. Chapter 2 presents seismic images of a ~2-km-thick evaporite body in Guaymas Basin, central Gulf of California. In rifts, evaporites form under conditions unique to the latest stages of continental rupture, and the presence, age, thickness, and shape place new constraints on the history of early rifting there. Chapter 3 presents numerical experiments that show that diapirs can form in sediments on the down-going plate in subduction zones and rise into the mantle wedge, delivering the sedimentary component widely observed in arc magmas. Chapter 4 presents measurements of seismic anisotropy from wide-angle, active-source data from the Middle America Trench that address the hypothesis that the upper mantle is hydrated by seawater flowing along outer-rise normal faults. These measurements indicate that the upper mantle is ~1.57 to 6.89% anisotropic, and this anisotropy can be attributed to bending-related faulting and an inherited mantle fabric. Accounting for anisotropy reduces previous estimates for the amount of water stored in the upper mantle of the down-going plate from ~2.5 to 1.5 wt%, a significant change in subduction zone water budgets.

Повний текст джерелаThis work is focused on basin formation and evolution in the Argentinean South Atlantic Margin and the Mesozoic breakup of SW Gondwana. Rifting evolution was studied in the Malvinas and Colorado/Salado basins. Three superimposed rifting events were identified in the latter. The first rifting event is associated with the Late Triassic extensional reactivation of Late Paleozoic thrusts of the Ventania-Cape fold belt. A second and main rifting stage (Early-Middle Jurassic) is related to faults forming the main depocenters and intersecting the older structures. Finally, Early Cretaceous extension linked to the opening of the South Atlantic Ocean focused on the outer continental fringe and produced emplacement of SDRs. The rifting evolution of the Malvinas basin was seismically characterized. New zircon U-Pb ages constrain rifting in the Jurassic. A new model for Gondwana breakup is presented with focus on the evolution of the Mesozoic peri-Atlantic basins. The post-breakup evolution of the Argentinean South Atlantic margin was also studied via seismic interpretation and stratigraphic characterization. Three stages of drift evolution were identified. After the Hauterivian/Barremian breakup, the Cretaceous drift unit is conditioned by the thermal subsidence over the main depocenters. Only after the Maastrichtian-Danian regional transgression, the margin becomes a single continental platform. The Paleogene drift stage is characterized by subsidence and sedimentary input centered in the Salado area, while the Neogene drift stage is characterized by a cylindrical behavior and the remarkable influence of contour currents

Повний текст джерелаThis study documents the succession of rifting phases that evolve along continental margins of longstanding history. This type of evolution, well admitted in the literature, remains poorly understood in terms of geological processes. Herein, the way rifts evolve through is specifically studied to highlight the fault reactivation processes and the formation of associated geological elements during the evolution of extensional basins. This study summarises some principal results of two research projects focussing on (1) the Porcupine Basin (offshore Ireland) that formed from the North-Atlantic rift propagation and (2) the Coral Sea region (Papua New Guinea) which the evolution within a supra-subduction context links to the convergence of the Pacific and Australian lithospheric plates. These two research projects specifically discuss the sedimentary record and the faulting evolution from seismic data correlated to wells, magnetism and gravimetry.Both basins evolved from the Late Palaeozoic on sides of orogens since the Late Palaeozoic. It is demonstrated that extension initiated along old structures that were reactivated during a general orogenic collapse evidenced by migration of depocentres. Then, extension discontinuously developed during several rifting events that are usually internally pulsed. The first rift events are usually very narrow and discreet, and evolve in a continental domain. Deformation progressively passes to localized normal faulting implying that major bounding faults progressively accommodate the extension. As long as extension progresses, the influence of continental structures tend to decrease and the deformation evolves oceanward prior continental tear. Extension generally stops once boundary conditions change, resulting in oceanic crust that may propagate transversally (oceanic propagators).Along classical Atlantic-type margins (e.g. Porcupine Basin), this links to the propagation of the oceanic crust but internal crosscutting oceanic basins (e.g. Bay of Biscay) stop the deformation prior to seafloor spreading that form the overall oceanic crust.In supra-subduction zones (e.g. Coral Sea), it is rather related to a change in the dynamics of the subduction which may control the overall direction of the spreading propagation.Thus, extension migrates progressively away from the initial deformation core by reactivating pre-existing structures, whatever geodynamic conditions are but with a general decrease in the influence of old continental fabrics. Herein, it is proposed herein that a deformation phase expresses as an extensional megacycle during which graben, basins or rift settings develop successively and overprint the ones another. Each extensional megacycle may be defined sedimentologically and tectonically. Their overlap generally shows an oceanward migration which reactivates specific pre-existing structures. The initiation of extension and the evolution from a megacycle another is generally linked associated to a variation of the boundary conditions

Повний текст джерелаThe Algerian margin is a complex domain, limited to the south by the Maghrebian internal zones (AlKaPeCa) that overthrust the external Tellian zones southward. The offshore part of this system constitutes a back-arc basin, where a mio-pliocene sedimentary series were deposited over a substratum of laterally variable origin and nature. The goal of the present work consisted in analyzing and modelling the petroleum system at work and calculating hydrocarbon volumes. Before proceeding to different numerical basin, stratigraphic and thermal modelling, a conceptual geological model is required and was performed based on field geological studies and stratigraphic and structural interpretations of the seismic profiles. The extension of the continental crust beyond the foot of the margin, allows determining a chronostratigraphic model by extrapolation of the outcroping oligo-miocene formations onshore to the acoustic pre-messinian units defined in the offshore basin. Besides, a tectonic analysis in both onshore and offshore domains gave rise to three main steps of evolution: (1) syn-rift phase where the basin was opened by transtension since Late Oligocene- Aquitanian, (2) post-rift phase in which intra-arc basins were developed, AlKaPeCa and Africa docked and magmatism activity took place, (3) inversion phase where the margin became active mainly since Quaternary times. After defining the different petroleum system elements taking into account variable uncertainties, the 2D/3D petroleum system model depicts possibilities of oil and gas accumulations mainly close to the margin, between 20 to 65 km from the coastline to the north with a maximum range of 70 km in the Bejaia Gulf

Повний текст джерелаDeformation modes of magma-poor hyper-extended rift systems evolve through time and space. Hence the observed structures and architectures vary along a depth section as well as on a map. This study aims to characterize the deformation modes of hyper-extended systems and their propagation using the examples of the southern North Atlantic. The architecture of the continental crust termination has been compared to the critical Coulomb wedge theory because it has a wedge shape, the final deformation is brittle/frictional and this wedge is gliding over a basal detachment. This theory highlights the distinct behavior of the two conjugate margins. Moreover it constrains crustal architecture of the continental crust termination, integrates continentward dipping faults and explains the formation of extensional allochthons in a sequential faulting model. The integration of deformation modes in an evolving 3D model necessitates a reliable kinematic context, which is not the case for the opening of the southern North Atlantic Ocean. This is linked to the interpretation of the J-magnetic anomaly as an oceanic isochron. Re-investigations of this anomaly revealed its polygenic and polyphased formation, which is inconsistent for an oceanic isochrons or a domain boundary making it unusable for plate reconstruction. The evolution of rift deformation has been analyzed with a new plate reconstruction of the southern North Atlantic. It appears that the continental crust deformation is segmented whereas oceanic crust propagates in a V-shape. The approach developed in this thesis also asks new geodynamical questions on the influence of inheritance and the effect of triple junction

Повний текст джерелаThe structural architecture of the Tunisian foreland consists in a mixed tectonic style with deep-seated basement faults, shallower décollements within sedimentary cover and salt diapirism. Structural geometry and orientation of the pre-existing Triassic-Turonian extensional structures controlled subsequent contractional deformation within the sedimentary cover. The rifting of the margin started in the late Permian–Triassic and continued up to the Turonian. From the inversion of the successive compressions, the development of ENE-trending thrust-related anticlines such as the Orbata and Chemsi structures are controlled by the reactivation of the inherited Mesozoic faults. Geologic data from this region indicate that the positive tectonic inversion occurred probably during Late Cretaceous period. The Cenozoic tectonic compressions in the southern Atlassic domain occurred during three periods: Late Eocene, Late Miocene and Plio-Quaternary. The Fault kinematic analysis reveals a temporal change in states of stress that occurred during the Late Cenozoic. A paleostress (Miocene-Pliocene) state is characterized by a regional compressional tectonic regime with a mean N134±09°E trending compressional axis (σ1). A modern (Quaternary to present-day) state of stress also corresponds to compressional tectonic regime with a regionally mean N05±10°E trending horizontal σ1. This study underlines the predominant role of inherited basement structures acquired during the evolution of the southern Tethyan margin, and their influence on the geometry of the Atlassic fold-and-thrust belt. At the southern Atlas of Tunisia our restoration shows a surface shortening of ~8.1 km (~7.3%)
