More than 100 years after the devasting Messina-Reggio Calabria earthquake (M= 7.1), the
largest seismic event ever recorded in southern Europe in the instrumental epoch, its …

Published and new data exist for relative sea-level change for 105 locations (127 samples)
during the late Holocene, along the Italian (and Istrian) coasts. These data, compared with …

A combination of published and new radiometric dates on uplifted Holocene fossil beaches
from northeastern Sicily and southern Calabria (southern Italy) is compared with the altitude …

Abstract The 3-km-wide Messina Strait divides Sicily from the Italian peninsula, representing
one of the most impressive examples of tide-dominated marine passageway of the central …

A new volcano-tectonic map of Etna volcano has been compiled through a morphotectonic
analysis performed with detailed field map**, high-resolution DEM and orthoimages …

In order to characterize and quantify the Middle–Late Quaternary and ongoing deformation
within the Southern Aegean forearc, we analyse the major tectonic structures affecting the …

Well-preserved MIS 5.5 terraces in Sicily are identified primarily by the index fossil Strombus
bubonius, and dated by amino acid racemization (AAR), electron spin resonance (ESR) …

Southern Italy is dominated by extensional tectonics that in the Calabrian arc and Eastern
Sicily produced the development of the Siculo–Calabrian Rift Zone (SCRZ). This zone is …

We have mapped and constrained the timing of tectonically deformed uplifted Late
Quaternary palaeoshorelines in the Messina Strait, southern Italy, an area above a …

The submerged sill in the Strait of Messina, which is located today at a minimum depth of 81
m below sea level (bsl), represents the only land connection between Sicily and mainland …
