Across the entire mantle we interpret 94 positive seismic wave-speed anomalies as
subducted lithosphere and associate these slabs with their geological record. We document …

Seismic tomography models of the three-dimensional upper mantle velocity structure of the
Mediterranean-Carpathian region provide a better understanding of the lithospheric …

The western Mediterranean subduction zone (WMSZ) extends from the northern Apennine
to southern Spain and turns around forming the narrow and tight Calabrian and Gibraltar …

Geological and geophysical constraints to reconstruct the evolution of the Central
Mediterranean subduction zone are presented. Geological observations such as upper plate …

We study the upper mantle P wave velocity structure below the Euro‐Mediterranean area,
down to 1000 km depth, by seismic travel time tomography. We invert summary residuals …

Italian Plio-Quaternary magmatism exhibits a very wide petrological, geochemical and
radiogenic-isotope variability, which makes magma genesis and geodynamic significance …

We present a tectonic synthesis and an animation of the tectonics of the western
Mediterranean since the Oligocene. This work is based on data derived from different …

Abstract During the Cenozoic, the Western Mediterranean region has experienced a
complex subduction history which involved the destruction of the Late Triassic/Jurassic …

In this paper, we show the seismicity of the past 20 years that occurred in Italy and
surrounding regions. Hypocentral locations have been obtained by using P-and S-wave …

Tectonic activity in convergent plate boundaries commonly involves backward migration
(rollback) of narrow subducting slabs and segmentation of subduction zones through slab …
