This book presents a significant amount of structural, paleomagnetic and magnetic fabric data in the Central High Atlas (Morocco). The authors thoroughly described and analyzed the present-day structure of this intraplate chain through 22 of cross-sections, potential field data analysis and 3D reconstruction. In addition, the authors propose a palinspastic reconstruction of the structure of the basin at 100 Ma (i.e., post-extension and pre-compression) to finally evaluate its Mesozoic and Cenozoic geodynamic evolution. This books presents (1) a unique three-dimensional model at the chain scale, (2) an analysis of the ca. 100 Ma remagnetization, to perform palinspastic restorations of most representative structures, (3) as well as the interpretation of the magnetic fabrics in order to unravel the tectonic or deformation setting that the rocks underwent in different parts of the basin.
This book is of interest to structural geologists in Northern Africa, the Mediterranean and Iberia, as well as to those interested in inverted intraplate basins and paleomagnetists from around the planet. Also, this book is intended to help students to understand better the geological evolution of the Atlas and therefore Morocco and surrounding areas.

About the Author
Dr. Pablo Calvín is currently a post-doctoral researcher at the IGME-CSIC research center (Spain). His work is focused on the study of remagnetizations and their kinematics both in intraplate basins (Iberia and North Africa) and in fold and thrust belts (Pyrenees), a research line that began during his Ph.D. at the University of Burgos (2014-2018), and he has combined with geophysical prospecting (magnetic and gravimetric surveys) and structural and tectonic studies.
Prof. Dr. Antonio. M. Casas Sainz is a teacher/researcher at the Department of Earth Sciences of the University of Zaragoza. He has worked extensively on paleostresses, regional geology, basin analysis and basin inversion in the Iberian Chain and the Pyrenees, geometrical and analog modeling, and also in geophysical prospecting of the shallow subsurface and analysis of geological risks linked to large dams and seismicity.
Prof. Dr. Teresa Román Berdiel is a teacher and a researcher at the Department of Earth Sciences of the University of Zaragoza. She leads since 2006 one of the pioneering teams working in Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) in Spain. Her work is focused in the application of analog modeling and magnetic fabrics to the understanding of different geological processes, from the emplacement of granitic bodies in the upper crust to the geodynamic evolution of intraplate basins.
Prof. Dr. Juan J. Villalaín is currently a teacher and a researcher at the Department of Physics of the Universidad de Burgos (UBU) and responsible for the Paleomagnetic Group and the Laboratory of Paleomagnetism and Rock Magnetism of the UBU. His work is focused on the application of paleomagnetism and magnetism to solve different geological (magnetostratigraphy, tectonics) and archeological problems. His main interest is focused on the study of widespread remagnetizations and their application to perform palinspastic reconstructions of intraplate basins.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Books Puddle, New York, New York, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
