abstract = {The Gibraltar Arc is a case study of an arcuate Alpine orogen where
compression in the external zones went hand by hand with back-arc extension in the
hinterland of the arc. Extensional tectonics controlled the formation of several basins in
the Alboran Domain and the deposition of Miocene to Recent sediments. Those basins
are nowadays partially emerged due to the tectonic inversion that affects the whole
Gibraltar Arc from Late Miocene onwards.
In this context, a great number of onshore and offshore studies have been carried
out for the last decades. Nevertheless, very little has been done to integrate both types of
studies in order to better understand the geodynamic evolution of this area. This PhD.
Thesis focuses on onshore-offshore correlations of the Miocene sedimentary infill
deposited over the metamorphic complexes of the Alboran Domain and its relationship
with the synchronous tectonic structures observed either in the basement or in the
sedimentary sequence. The study combines the analysis offshore of a comprehensive
dataset of multichannel seismic profiles with onshore field work. The studied area is
situated in the northern branch of the Arc. It comprises the western part of the Alboran
Domain of the Betic cordillera onshore, and the northern half of the Western Alboran
Basin, also known as the Malaga Basin.
The study has permitted to differentiated three main episodes that took place in
the studied area.},
