In the Gulf of Cadiz key segment of the Africa–Iberia plate boundary (North-East Atlantic ocean), three main different modes of tectonic interference between a recently identified wrench system (SWIM) and the Gulf of Cadiz Accretionary Wedge (GCAW) were tested through analog sand-box modeling: a) An active accretionary wedge on top of a pre-existent inactive basement fault; b) An active strike-slip...
Sandbox experiments of accretionary wedges were performed incorporating a thin weak layer of micro glass beads. The impact of heterogeneous sedimentary input on wedge mechanics, evolution and mass transfer was investigated. We report the first experimentally documented growth of basal duplexes. These occurred for high basal friction conditions, with restricted output of the lower section. The upper...
