The Maira-Sampeyre and Val Grana Allochthons (south Western Alps): review and new data on the tectonometamorphic evolution of the Briançonnais distal margin
Here we describe the structure, the high-pressure, low-temperature (HP-LT) metamorphism
and tectonic evolution of the Briançonnais distal margin units from the south Western Alps …

Along-strike segmentation of the South China Sea margin imposed by inherited pre-rift basement structures
Multibeam bathymetric, seismic and borehole data are used to investigate a large-scale
strike-slip structure, the Baiyun-Liwan Fault Zone, in the northern South China Sea. This fault …

[HTML][HTML] Mélanges and chaotic rock units: Implications for exhumed subduction complexes and orogenic belts
Most of mélanges occurring in exhumed subduction complexes and orogenic belts are
commonly interpreted as the product of tectonic processes (eg, underplating and return flow) …

Structural architecture of the Western Alpine Ophiolites, and the Jurassic seafloor spreading tectonics of the Alpine Tethys
We present a regional synthesis of the structural architecture and tectonic evolution of the

Late Palaeozoic tectonics in Central Mediterranean: a reappraisal
A revision of late Palaeozoic tectonics recorded in Tuscany, Calabria and Corsica is here
presented. We propose that, in Tuscany, upper Carboniferous-Permian shallow-marine to …

Elusive Permian–Triassic Western Paleotethyan paleogeography: Towards the Early Cimmerian pre-Vardar configuration (Dinarides-Carpathian Balkan Belt)
D Spahić - Earth-Science Reviews, 2024 - Elsevier
Abstract The Dinarides and Carpathian-Balkans, the western Balkan Peninsula, form an
essential link between the Paleotethyan branches of the Adriatic Sea (Montenegro, Croatia) …

Petrogenesis of Mediterranean lamproites and associated rocks: The role of overprinted metasomatic events in the post-collisional lithospheric upper mantle
High-MgO lamproite and lamproite-like (ie lamprophyric) ultrapotassic rocks are recurrent in
the Mediterranean and surrounding regions. They are associated in space and time with …

Cross-propagation of the western Alpine orogen from early to late deformation stages: Evidence from the Internal Zones and implications for restoration
The internal zones of the Western Alps arc are derived from an oceanic and continental
subduction wedge developed beneath the Adria plate during its paleogene northward drift …
