Abstract
Located in NW Morocco, Gharb Basin (GB) is a part of the foreland basin that was formed at the front of the Rif cordillera. It stands as a transition zone between the Maamora Plateau, to the South, and the Rif Belt, to the North. The first features of this basin began to appear in the Middle Miocene due to the compression caused by the convergence of Eurasia and Africa. The correlation of drilling data with gravity and aeromagnetic data, as well as the use of seismic data, has made it possible to reconstruct the architecture of this basin and to identify new structures responsible for the Neogene evolution of this region.
期刊介绍：
The prime focus of Tectonophysics will be high-impact original research and reviews in the fields of kinematics, structure, composition, and dynamics of the solid arth at all scales. Tectonophysics particularly encourages submission of papers based on the integration of a multitude of geophysical, geological, geochemical, geodynamic, and geotectonic methods
