Abstract The Apennines-Sicilian-Maghrebian fold-and-thrust belt originated from the
subduction of the Alpine Tethys and the later collision of drifted continental blocks against …

The geological structure of continental lithosphere shows complex variety that is inherited
into orogenic belts and influences the localization and amplification of contractional …

The structural evolution of cataclastic fault cores from nucleation to growth was studied for
the case of normal fault zones affecting high-porosity carbonates in the Hyblean Plateau …

The Gela Nappe of south central Sicily provides an example of a curved segment of an
orogenic front that can be examined both onshore and offshore for deformational style and …

We present a new post-processing methodology for the analysis of InSAR (Synthetic
Aperture Radar Interferometry) multi-temporal measures, based on the temporal under …

This paper proposes a new seismogenic interpretation of mainland and central-southern
Sicily, based on an integrated structural–kinematic–seismological approach. Through …

The present-day arcuate shape of the Calabrian Arc has been accomplished during
Neogene and Early Pleistocene by large and opposite vertical axis rotations along the two …

It has long been realised that the structure of orogenic belts is profoundly influenced by the
original architecture and composition of the continental crust that is involved. With the …

Tectonic and sedimentary mélanges, rocks with block‐in‐matrix fabric often referred to as
'chaotic', are widespread in the circum‐Mediterranean collisional orogenic belts as well as in …

Available multi-and single-channel seismic reflection profiles, calibrated by onshore
borehole data, have been used for defining the structural styles in the shelf and slope of the …
