Engrosamiento de la corteza y relieve intraplaca en el centro de Iberia

Abstract

A moderate thickening of the crust beneath the Spanish Central System has been determined by means of a wide angle seismic experiment. The value of this thickeníng - 5 km in form of 3 km of the Moho topography, 2 km of surface relief is coherent with the surface model of intracontinental distributed deformatíon already descríbed. In addition, the present model is in agreement with the intraplate uplíft, the reverse faults that bound the relief and to sorne extent with the intraplate shortening of Iberia.
