The Tunisian domain is formed following the convergence between Nubia and Eurasia which is responsible for folding and still active faulting. We used 62 earthquake focal mechanisms to constrain the present stress field of the Tunisian domain. The...
We present a regional-residual separation procedure for potential field data (gravity or magnetic) based on the integration of least-squares polynomial, power density spectrum and Upward continuation techniques. The proposed procedure is composed by...
Gravity datawere analyzed to determine the structural development of the northern boundary of the Ghadames
Basin in southern Tunisia. The Ghadames Basin which also occurs in eastern Algeria and northwestern Libya is
one of the most prolific...
The present work tests the use of hypsometric integral (HI) in identifying
neotectonic and lithology signals in the Utica-Mateur basin (north-eastern
Tunisia), a region recognised by low deformation rates. We computed HI
values using three digital...
A procedure for a dip angle determination of a fault plane from gravity field data is presented to
constrain a seismic profile interpretation. This procedure is applied on Mahjouba normal fault at the
western border of Kalaa Khesba graben (Central...
An electrical resistivity tomography survey has
been conducted along the eastern coast of the Gulf of
Aqaba in order to assess the salinity of the coastal shallow
aquifer. The study area is extended from Ra’s Shikh Humayd
to the town of Maqnah,...
The Atlas orogeny in northern Algeria and Tunisia led to the destruction of Tethys oceanic lithosphere and
cumulated in a collision ofmicroplates rifted off the European marginwith the North African continental margin.
The location of the boundary...
We present a magnetic study of palaeohearths within Lazaret cave (Nice, France) that demonstrates how to recognize
fired structures in similar geological contexts. Using magnetic field and susceptibility mapping, excavated and
potentially still-...
The geodynamic evolution of the Southern
Tethyan Margin of Tunisia is investigated using geophysical
studies. Analysis of gravity and seismic reflection data
in the Maghrebian domain and Southern Tunisia reveals the
geodynamic role played by the...
