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 aim of this paper is to describe some aspects of the Northern Apennine/Corsica
orogenic system, a classical and still-debated subject in the geology of the central …

The concept of turbidite has evolved so much since its original definition by Kuenen and
Migliorini in 1950–ie the deposit of turbidity currents exemplified by the sandy flysch …

During the Late Miocene–Pleistocene interval, a complex system of elongate foredeeps, the
Po Plain-Adriatic Foredeep (PPAF), developed in the eastern sector of the Po Plain and in …

An outline of the geology of the Italian Northern Apennines, to accompany a geological map
at 1: 250,000 scale covering the Emilia-Romagna, Marche, Tuscany and Umbria regions, is …

Much of our understanding of submarine sediment‐laden density flows that transport very
large volumes (ca 1 to 100 km3) of sediment into the deep ocean comes from careful …

A new kinematic reconstruction that incorporates estimates of post‐20 Ma shortening and
extension in the Apennines, Alps, Dinarides, and Sicily Channel Rift Zone (SCRZ) reveals …

The Casaglia Monte della Colonna (CMC) body, from the middle Miocene Marnoso-
arenacea Formation of the Northern Apennines, covering more than 350 square kilometers …

This study analyses the role played by the mechanical proprieties of the rocks involved in a
thrust system, focusing on the problem of multiple décollements and of related …

Abstract We calculate Plio-Pleistocene slip rates on the blind thrusts of the outer Northern
Apennines fronts, that are the potential sources of highly damaging earthquakes, as shown …
