The basins and orogens of the Mediterranean region ultimately result from the opening of
oceans during the early break-up of Pangea since the Triassic, and their subsequent …

The Mediterranean offers a unique opportunity to study the driving forces of tectonic
deformation within a complex mobile belt. Lithospheric dynamics are affected by slab …

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 …

The application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, in
geological, geomorphological, and geotechnical studies has gained significant attention due …

High-MgO ultrapotassic rocks are found in four different areas of the Western Mediterranean
basin associated in space and time with shoshonitic and calc-alkaline rocks. They represent …

Abstract The Middle East region represents a key site within the Tethyan domain where
continental break-up, collision, backarc extension and escape tectonics are kinematically …

The Aegean region (Greece, western Turkey) is one of the best studied continental
extensional provinces. Here, we provide the first detailed kinematic restoration of the …

Actualistic plate‐tectonic models are the best framework within which to understand the
tectonics of sedimentary basins. Sedimentary basins develop in divergent, intraplate …

We analyzed the structure and evolution of the external Calabrian Arc (CA) subduction
complex through an integrated geophysical approach involving multichannel and single …

The origin of forces driving the deformation of the continental crust near subduction zones
and especially in backarc regions is debated. This work is based on a compilation of SKS …
