Evolution of the Bou Arada Trough in response to the various tectonic constraints during the Maastrichtian–middle Eocene. (a) Stereographic representation (Schmidt’s projection, lower hemisphere) of the populations of faults affecting the various layers in the study area (continuous lines); a strike rose diagram, showing orientation and value of principal stress axes (σ1, σ2 and σ3). (b) Interpretations of the stereograms showing the activities recorded on major faults. (c) Schematic block diagram showing the palaeostructure of the study area. (d) An evolutionary model of Bou Arada Trough in relation to the bordering system of faults. Open arrows, extensional regime; filled arrows, compression regime.
