The central Apennines are a fold-thrust belt currently affected by post-orogenic extensional seismicity. To constrain the influence that the inherited thrust-related structures exert on the …

The northern Calabrian ranges and the southern Apennines are part of a single orogenic segment of the Alpine chain system framing the central-western Mediterranean Sea. Three …
Abstract The Caledonian and Variscan orogens in northern Europe and the Alpine-age Apennine range in Italy are classic examples of thrust belts that were developed at the …
The active interaction of the foreland domain represented by the Adria Foreland Plate and the surrounding orogenic systems is discussed by taking a perspective from the Central …
Normal faults grow either by radial propagation and segment linkage or by accruing displacement without a proportional increase in fault length. To test these competing models …

In this study, we report how criteria inferred from structural and kinematic analysis of shear zone fabrics can be instrumental in deciphering events of positive or negative inversion …

Thrust sequences show a range of geometric and kinematic characteristics in cross-sections and in map view. Two types of thrust sequences are commonly observed in thrust systems …

The along-strike variation of fault-related inversion folds within curved thrust systems is documented by presenting cases from the Central-Northern Apennines of Italy. Fold …
Abstract The Central Andean Forearc (26° S) structure has been debated for decades. Extension, contraction, and strike-slip deformation are commonly proposed mechanisms to …
