Map of the Mediterranean Basin s.l. with a sketch of the paleogeographic context during the second (paroxysmal) step of the Messinian Crisis, with a focus on the evaporites in the central basins (Haq et al., 2020), the isolated (perched) basins (West Alboran: Booth-Rea et al., 2018; Apennine Foredeep: Pellen et al., 2017, 2021; Eastern Paratethys including the Aegean Basin: Popescu et al., 2015; Suc et al., 2015a), the fluvial canyons (Bache et al., 2012; Pellen et al., 2019; addition references in the Supplementary material), and the submarine canyons in the Southeastern Levantine Basin (Buchbinder and Zilberman, 1997; Moneron and Gvirtzman, 2022). The map is elaborated using GeoMapApp (Ryan et al., 2009).
