Climatic vs. tectonic signals in a continental extensional basin (Teruel, NE Spain) from stable isotope (δ18O) and sequence stratigraphical evolution

Alluvial fans and shallow carbonate lakes interfered in the Teruel half-graben during the Late Miocene–Pliocene. Tectonic influence is recorded in alluvial and lacustrine–palustrine successions, with long-term climate changes being recorded in detail in the isotopic signatures of carbonates. Episode...
