RT Journal Article T1 Modelización numérica de la evolución geodinámica del surco de Valencia T1 Numerical modelling of the geodynamic evolution of the Valencia trough A1 Negredo, A. M. A1 Fernández, M. A1 Torné, M. AB A numerical kinematic model of extension has been used to study the geodynamic evolution of the Valencia Trough. The model allows for depth-dependent lithospheric extension and lateral accommodation of extension. The best fitting model of the geophysical observations is obtained by assuming a phase of synrift evolution lasting 15 Ma, with maximum lithospheric thinning in the trough duringd the Early Miocene (25-15 Ma) and reduced extension during the Serravallian (15-10 Ma). The lower crust and lithospheric mantle would be stretched by a higher amount than the upper crust The evolution of the Balearic Promontory would be characterised by a first stage o f crustal thickening during the Lower Miocene and a second stage of thinning related to the opening of the Algerian Basin during the Serravallian PB Sociedad Geológica de España YR 1996 FD 1996 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10272/12653 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10272/12653 LA spa DS Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Huelva RD 31 may 2026
