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 role of tectonics in the Neogene-Quaternary evolution of the forearc basin, between the
Serre and Aspromonte Massifs, located in the southern Calabria, is widely documented in …

Abstract The Calabria-Peloritani Orogen is an arcuate segment of the peri-Mediterranean
orogenic Alpine nappe system that comprises the whole Calabria and the north-eastern …

Understanding the fracture influence on the P-wave velocity and physical–mechanical
properties of brittle rocks is very useful for geotechnical characterization in a number of …

This paper presents a multidisciplinary study about the instability of a rock slope on
Peloritani Chain, northeastern Sicily. Several rockfalls affected the studied slope in the last …

A rockfall analysis at one of the most relevant cultural heritage sites of northeastern Sicily
(Italy) is presented herein with the aim of assessing the hazard arising from the unstable …

The application of zircon dating to the reconstruction of orogenic systems is invaluable since
time constraints of the geological evolution of orogens are crucial for the proposal of …

A multidisciplinary approach adopting new geological, hydro-geochemical and isotopic data
has been used to assess the genesis of hot and cold waters of the Galatro and Antonimina …

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, present a cost-effective
solution for the swift collection of data from vast and remote areas that are otherwise difficult …
