Neotectonic rotations in the Calabrian Arc; implications for a Pliocene-Recent geodynamic scenario for the Central Mediterranean

JP Van Dijk, PJJ Scheepers - Earth-Science Reviews, 1995 - Elsevier
Recently, new data have been presented which imply that major block rotations took place
in the Central Mediterranean during the Pleistocene, between 1.0 and 0.7 Ma. Kinematic …
