Strength of the Iberian intraplate lithosphere: Cenozoic deformations and seismicity

Abstract: Previous studies about the strength of the lithosphere in the center of Iberia fail to resolve the depth of earthquakes because of the rheological uncertainties. Therefore, new contributions are considered (the crustal structure from a density model) and several parameters (tectonic regime, mantle rheology, strain rate) are checked in this paper to properly examine the role of lithospheric strength in the intraplate seismicity and the Cenozoic evolution. The strength distribution with depth, the integrated str… Show more

“…A duplicação do valor da taxa de incisão fluvial nos últimos ca. 155 ka deverá resultar do aumento da taxa de soerguimento litosférico regional que se vem evidenciando por intensificação do contexto de compressão horizontal resultante da convergência, segundo NW-SE e a ~4 mm/a, entre as placas Euroasiática e Africana (DEMETS et al 1994(DEMETS et al , 2010RIBEIRO et al 1996;MARTÍN-VELÁZQUEZ et al 2016).…”
