Magnetic ellipsoids show a sedimentary fabric in 42% of sites and a weak and well-defined magnetic lineation in 47% and 11% of sites. The magnetic lineation is roughly oriented around the east-west direction, compatible with a very weak deformation occurring there and related to the north-south compression linked to the convergence between Europe, Iberia and Africa during the Early-Middle Miocene. A slight variation of the magnetic parameters Km, Pj, and T exists through time, probably due to changes in the sedimentary conditions in the basin.11 p.application/pdfeng(c) Elsevier Masson SAS, 2016MagnetismeMiocèEbre, Conca de l'Deformació de les roquesMagnetismMioceneEbro River WatersheadRock deformationEarly-Middle Miocene subtle compressional deformation in the Ebro foreland basin (northern Spain); insights from magnetic fabricsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6590042020-06-04info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
