A Bacia Algarvia (BA) situa-se no sul de Portugale apresenta uma direção principal E - O estando a sua parte emersa representada ao longo da costa, desde o Cabo de São Vicente até ao rio Guadiana, estendendo-se também para o offshore.
The Mesozoic Algarve Basin (AB) corresponds to the southernmost geological province of mainland Portugal. The Carrapateira Outlier (CO) is a small outcrop of Mesozoic rocks located 20 km north of the AB. In this study we investigated the palynology of the Jurassic (Upper Bajocian to Lower Kimmeridgian) of the AB and CO.
The Algarve Basin is an important Mesozoic sedimentary basin located in southern Portugal. Its onshore part consists largely of marine carbonate sediments with more than 2000 m in thickness. The basin extends offshore where its geology is recognized seismically and a few hydrocarbon exploration wells were drilled in the mid 70’s and early 80’s. The palynostratigraphical study of two of these wells, Ruivo- 1...
The Algarve Basin is an important Mesozoic depocentre located in southern Portugal which formed during the succesive phases of the North Atlantic rifting following the break-up of Pangea [1]. Several unconformities related to compressive episodes are observed in the stratigraphic record of the Algarve Basin. One of these episodes ocurred in the transition from Middle to Upper Jurassic times and is marked ...
