..., sorting, and grain fabric from massive sandstones from two well exposed formations: the Numidian Flysch (northern Tunisia) and the Grès d'Annot (SE France). Given that manual measurement of grain parameters using petrographic thin-section analysis is time-consuming and inherently biased ( Johnson 1994...

... from selected stratigraphic successions, we reconstruct the foreland basin system that developed in the early Miocene in front of the growing Rif orogen. The successions analyzed are representative of (1) the classical “Numidian Facies” from the Intrarifian Tanger Unit and (2) the Numidian-like...

... connections. This rationale is applied to understand the tectonic evolution of the central Mediterranean in the early Miocene, using the African-sourced, hyper-mature Numidian sandstones and their immature, orogen-derived time-equivalents. In both Sicily and the southern Apennines, the Numidian sequence...
