Backthrusts and passive roof duplexes in fold-and-thrust belts
2012
Abstract Seismic reflection profiles crossing the area bounded by the M. Kumeta Ridge and the M. Maranfusa-M. Galiello-Rocca Busambra morphostructural feature (central-western Sicily) were used to constrain the deep structural setting of the Sicilian–Maghrebian fold-and-thrust belt (FTB). By integrating seismic, field and well data, we attempted to correlate outcropping and deep-seated contractional structures, shedding light on the internal geometries of the thrust system. Results of the new seismostratigraphic analysis presented in this paper reveal structural variations along the tectonic edifice. This suggests dividing the study area into two sectors: the western sector is characterized…
Numerical investigation of deformation mechanics in fold-and-thrust belts: Influence of rheology of single and multiple décollements
2012
[1] Thin-skinned fold-and-thrust belts related to convergence tectonics develop by scraping off a rock sequence along a weaker basal decollement often formed by water-saturated shale layers or low-viscosity salt horizons. A two-dimensional finite element model with a viscoelastoplastic rheology is used to investigate the structural evolution of fold-and-thrust belts overlying different types of decollements. In addition, the influence of multiple weak layers in the stratigraphic column is studied. Model shale decollements are frictional, with lower friction angles as the cover sequence. Model salt layers behave linear viscous, due to a lower viscosity as the cover sequence, or with a power …

CONSTRUCTING, BOOTSTRAPPING, AND COMPARING MORPHOMETRIC AND PHYLOGENETIC TREES: A CASE STUDY OF NEW WORLD MONKEYS (PLATYRRHINI, PRIMATES)
2005
Morphometric data sets are often phenetically analyzed by using various kinds of spatial, metric, or nonmetric multivariate analyses. Such methods produce results that are difficult to compare directly with molecular or morphological phylogenetic hypotheses, which are usually expressed by using nonspatial tree representations. Therefore, it is useful in a comparative approach to analyze, and above all to visualize, morphometric pairwise relationships as tree structures. For this purpose, several additive or ultrametric methods exist, which often return different topologies for the same data set. Objective criteria are thus needed to identify the tree-building algorithm (or algorithm family)…
Feeding habits of the spotted flounder Citharus linguatula off the eastern coast of Spain
1994
The composition of the diet of Citharus linguatula (L.) off the coast of the Gulf of Valencia, Spain, was determined between October 1989 and October 1990. The percentage of empty stomachs remained constant throughout the year, except for the period August to September, when a maximum was recorded coinciding with the reproductive period. Crustaceans (Mysidacea and Decapoda) and teleosts constituted the main prey. The composition of the prey ingested varied with predator size; small specimens contained a greater number of mysids in their stomachs, while decapods and fishes were more abundant in the stomachs of larger specimens. Diets varied seasonally: mysids were more important during autum…
Diel vertical movements of zooplankton in lake La Cruz (Cuenca, Spain)
2000
The study of diel vertical movements of zooplankton in a small meromictic karstic lake (lake La Cruz), presenting highly stratified waters, was performed using two different methodologies: (i) samples were taken along the vertical profile and were compared at different hours in a diel cycle; (ii) some plankton traps were located at different depths, covering different periods of time, to catch organisms going upwards and downwards. The main subject of this study has been the vertical movements affecting rotifers since they were dominant in the zooplankton of this lake, but we have also included the results obtained for other zooplankton groups. The results indicate an almost general movemen…
Surface glycoproteins in copepods: potential signals for mate recognition
1994
The mechanism male copepods use to recognize mates is not well understood. Both chemical and mechanical cues have been implicated, but the relative importance of these is not known. This lack of knowledge is despite the belief that mate recognition has a critical role in maintaining reproductive isolation of many species and influences the direction of evolution. Glycoproteins are used as mating signals by a number of aquatic organisms including rotifers, ciliates, and algae. We have developed techniques for selectively probing surface glycoproteins in zooplankton using fluorescently labeled lectins. We examined surface glycoproteins on the urosomes of several species of marine and freshwat…
