The Ionian and Alfeo–Etna fault zones: New segments of an evolving plate boundary in the central Mediterranean Sea?
Abstract The Calabrian Arc is a narrow subduction–rollback system resulting from

Isostasy, dynamic topography, and the elevation of the Apennines of Italy
The elevation of an orogenic belt is commonly related to crustal/lithosphere thickening.
Here, we discuss the Apennines as an example to show that topography at a plate margin …
