The distribution of the depositional systems that formed the Lower Unit was, to a large extent, controlled by the emplacement of the Altomira Range during the Late Oligocene and Early Miocene. The sedimentation that formed the Intermediate Unit during most of the Middle Miocene and part of the Late Miocene was mainly controlled by uplift of the Central System. Finally, the sedimentary features of the Upper Unit reveal clearly a drastic change in regional stress tensors affecting the area. The stress fields became extensional in the Late Miocene, in contrast to the compressional fields that existed during the deposition of the earlier units.engNeogene tectono-sedimentary review of the Madrid basinbook parthttps://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511524851.037restricted access551.782(460.27)GeodinámicaGeología estratigráfica2506.19 Estratigrafía2506.20 Geología Estructural
