DOI: 10.1007/s12517-020-05666-3
Abstract: The gulf of Hammamet (GH) area, located in northeastern offshore Tunisia, experienced several tectonic deformations during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic eras. These deformations generated discontinuities, hiatuses, and thickness variations of sedimentary successions during the late… read more here.
