Following Late Cretaceous and older orogenic phases, the South Carpathians \u2010 Moesian platform area underwent strike\u2010slip deformation with NE\u2010SW oriented compression and NW\u2010SE tension. In Paleogene to Early Burdigalian times, tensional deformation is recorded which led to the opening of WSW\u2010ENE to E\u2010W trending extensional basins. In the Late Burdigalian, NE\u2010SW oriented contraction took over causing the oblique inversion of preexisting extensional structures. During Sarmatian times, NW\u2010SE and slightly younger N\u2010S trending compression caused the activation of mainly NW\u2010SE dextral strike\u2010slip faults and, in the frontal areas, south directed thrusting. The NW\u2010SE direction of extension determined for Paleogene to Early Burdigalian times is hardly compatible with presently accepted models of substantially continuous dextral wrenching between the Intra\u2010Carpathians units to the north of the South Carpathians and the Moesian platform to the south. In contrast, we have demonstrated dextral transpressive to transtensional movements within an E\u2010W trending corridor from the Late Burdigalian to Late Sarmatian which are compatible with available models.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1029\/97tc01238","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,2,4]],"date-time":"2004-02-04T03:17:20Z","timestamp":1075864640000},"page":"896-911","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":67,"title":["Tertiary tectonic evolution of the external South Carpathians and the adjacent Moesian platform (Romania)"],"prefix":"10.1029","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"L.","family":"Ma\u0163enco","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"G.","family":"Bertotti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C.","family":"Dinu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Cloetingh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"13","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1997,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1029\/JB089iB07p05835"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0191-8141(89)90034-5"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_4_1","volume-title":"Guide to Excursions","author":"Balintoni I.","year":"1989"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1130\/0091-7613(1992)020<0423:TNEAAB>2.3.CO;2"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_6_1","first-page":"447","article-title":"D\u00e9formations cassantes et contraintes cr\u00e9tac\u00e9es \u00e0 actuelles dans la plate\u2010forme mo\u00ebsienne (Bulgarie)","author":"Bergerat F.","year":"1994","journal-title":"Bull.
