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 …

We present a map that correlates tectonic units between Alps and western Turkey
accompanied by a text providing access to literature data, explaining the concepts used for …

A correlation of tectonic units of the Alpine-Carpathian-Dinaridic system of orogens,
including the substrate of the Pannonian and Transylvanian basins, is presented in the form …

Suprasubduction zone (SSZ) ophiolites in orogenic belts represent oceanic crust generation
in subduction rollback cycles during the closing stages of basins prior to terminal continental …

The Middle Jurassic Mirdita Ophiolite in northern Albania is part of an ophiolite belt
occurring between the Apulian and Pelagonian subcontinents in the Balkan Peninsula. The …

Neotethyan suprasubduction zone ophiolites represent anomalous oceanic crust developed
in older host basins during trench rollback cycles and later entrapped in orogenic belts as a …
