Résumé
Project No. 369 (''Comparative Evolution of PeriTethyan Rift
Basins'') of the International Geological Correlation Program produced
a new palaeotectonic-palaeo-geographic atlas of the western PeriTethyan
domain. The atlas contains more than two hundred new maps and documents
grouped in nine regional sets (Iberia, Polish Trough, Eastern European
and Scythian Platforms, Moesian Platform, Levant, Arabian Platform,,
Northern Africa, NE Africa-NW Arabia, Libya-Pelagian Shelf plus a set of
reconstructions for the whole western Tethys. The area, considered in
the atlas stretches. from west to east, from the eastern Atlantic shores
to the Urals and, from north to south, from the Baltic shield to
equatorial Africa; the time span covered extends from the Late.
Carboniferous to the Present.
The dataset, resulting from an extensive cooperation between industrial
and academic sources, is accessible interactively on a CD-ROM (Stampfli
et al., 2001a) and includes legend, timetable, short explanatory notes,
full references and additional supporting data. This dataset provides
information on the development of the Tethyan realm in space and time.
In particular, the relation between the Variscan and Cimmerian cycles in
the Mediterranean realm is illustrated by numerous palaeogeographic and
palaeotectonic maps.
