In this work we present a geophysical study of three Western Mediterranean basins: Valencia Trough, Gulf of Lions and Algero-Balearic Basin. The work aims to define the tectonic structure, nature of the basement, and to discuss the age, kinematics and mechanisms involved in basin formation. To study the basins we have gathered all deep penetrating seismic data available in the region consisting on several academic and industry data reprocessed and interpreted for this work. [...]
The author of this thesis has benefited from a four-year Formación de Personal Investigador (FPI) fellowship (reference CTM2011-30400-C02-01) from Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (MINECO) between 2012 and 2016. The author was also granted, within the framework of the FPI, with the following two stays: 2 months at the Laboratory of Research and Management of Natural Hazards of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (Athens-Greece) (reference EEBB-I-2014-08538), and 3 months at the Department of Marine Geodynamics of the GEOMAR Helmholtz-Centre for Ocean Research Kiel (Kiel-Germany) (reference EEBB-I-2015-10093). This work was carried out within the Grup de Recerca Consolidat de la Generalitat de Catalunya Barcelona Centre for Subsurface Imaging (B-CSI) (2014SGR940). The group computer and software facilities have been largely funded with the projects Kaleidoscope, CO-DOS, Geomargen-1, and CODOS-Phase2 funded by Repsol
