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 southern Apennines thrust system developed in Late Cretaceous to Quaternary times in
response to deformation processes induced by the convergence between the African and …

Slab edges are a relatively common feature in plate tectonics. Two prominent examples are
the northern end of the Tonga subduction zone and the southern end of the New Hebrides …

A SW–NE-oriented structural crustal section of northern Calabria (Southern Italy) extending
from back-arc (SW 'internal') up to foreland (NE.'external') areas illustrates the tectonic …

A Middle Miocene-Middle Pleistocene regional NW-SE left-lateral strike-slip fault system
profoundly conditioned the evolution of central Calabria, during the late tectonic phases …

We have built a complete catalog of three-dimensional (3D) hypocenter locations of
earthquakes recorded in Italy from 1981 to 2018. Our catalog includes more than 420,000 …

Temporal controls such as sedimentation ages, in foredeep and wedge-top basins,
combined with information about stratigraphic and metamorphic evolution, ages and …

The Apulian Platform Carbonates form the reservoir unit in several major oil fields in the Val
d'Agri area of southern Italy. Traps are formed by compressional fold structures developed in …

Abstract The Bradanic Trough (southern Italy) is the Pliocene-present-day south Apennines
foredeep. It is a foreland basin as subsidence due to westward subduction of the Adria Plate …
