Zusammenfassung
Earth Science integrates recent and new refined techniques (laser ablation, FT analyses, applied geophysics methods, etc). However, the most conventional methodologies still continue being relevant on the interpretation concerning both internal and external geodynamic processes that shape the landscape. Analogue Modelling was born in the beginning of the 19th Century and constitutes one of the main resources of geologic knowledge. We applied this technique to gain insight into the observable mountain building processes like those of the Iberian Peninsula and the connection with mountains that shapes the Moroccan Atlas. The process of mountain building might be linked to folding of the entire lithosphere.
