From rifting to mountain building: The Pyrenean Belt
Résumé
The Pyrenees are again under the spotlights! Today, an
increasing number of research groups are focusing on this
apparently simple double-verging orogeny. These recent
(and ongoing) studies using a broad range of disciplinary
approaches have greatly improved our understanding of
the geological structure and tectonostratigraphic evolution
of the Pyrenees and sometimes also challenged wellestablished
models.
