Tracking lithospheric delamination and surface processes across the Messinian salinity crisis

Abstract Lithospheric delamination involves short-lived crustal and surface responses, alkaline magmatism, high heat flow and extension. In the Western Mediterranean, delamination is hypothesized to have triggered uplift at the origin of the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC). But delamination as the p...
