We present a map that correlates tectonic units between Alps and western Turkey
accompanied by a text providing access to literature data, explaining the concepts used for …

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 …

In W‐dip** subduction zones there is a general eastward progression of the back‐arc
basin‐accretionary wedge‐foredeep complex. With the forward progression, early stages of …

During the Neogene and Quaternary western Mediterranean geodynamics were dominated
by theeastward'migration of the Apenninic arc and associated back-arc basins. The …

This paper aims to provide a concise description of the geology of the Southern Apennines
especially useful for readers having scarce familiarity with this complex region. The text is …

An interpretation of Northern Apennine geology is presented which relates the temporal and
spatial occurrence of both compressional and extensional deformation features in terms of …

PROCESSES that control carbon uptake by marine phytoplankton are important in the
global carbon cycle11–3. Uptake of CO2 itself may be limited by diffusion4. Bicarbonate …

Quaternary tectonics and paleoseismologicalinvestigations have defined a reliable
framework ofactive faults in the southern Umbria and AbruzziApennines. Two sets of NW …

A compilation of the Marine Isotope Substage (MIS) 5.5 high stand (∼ 125Ka) sites
spanning the coastline of Italy allows a picture of the vertical displacement pattern affecting …
