INTERPRETATION OF AN AEROMAGNETIC SURVEY OF THE SPANISH MAINLAND [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
An aeromagnetic survey of the Spanish mainland was carried out in 1987. A first interpretation of this survey is given here, with particular reference to the structure and tectonic development of the Spanish part of the Iberian Peninsula. This involves the integration of the geophysical interpretation, where possible, with the current understanding of the tectonic framework as determined from previous geological and geophysical investigations. Of particular interest is the apparent structural symmetry and the possible manner in which this might be associated with the generally acknowledged structural units of Spain; this gross structural symmetry even seems to extend to the northern and southern coastlines where the magnetic responses are somewhat similar in character. From a magnetic point of view, the Spanish mainland appears to be dominated by a series of sub-circular structures about an ESE-WNW axis, centered on the Gredos Mountains and remaining open in the axial direction into Portugal.
