Recently, new data have been presented which imply that major block rotations took place
in the Central Mediterranean during the Pleistocene, between 1.0 and 0.7 Ma. Kinematic …

The Calabrian arc and eastern Sicily are areas of the central Mediterranean where the
effects of Quaternary tectonics are well preserved. The most impressive tectonic feature in …

Normal faulting which has developed since the Middle Pleistocene, with an overall ESE-
WNW extension, is the dominant mode of deformation which has characterized the …

In peninsular Italy, marine terraces and shorelines created during oxygen-isotope substage
5e, known historically as the Tyrrhenian highstand, provide a reliable and homogeneous …

ABSTRACT The North Tyrrhenian–Northern Apennines post‐collisional system (NTAS) has
been analysed on the basis of marine reflection profiles and bibliographic sources with the …

Soil‐gas (He, Rn, CO2, and CH4) surveys were performed to test their sensitivity for locating
fault or fracture systems when masked by unconsolidated lithologies and to investigate the …

The magnetic and gravimetric methods of investigation have been applied to the central
sector of the Eolian arc, combined with geovolcanological data, for the purpose of defining …

Abstract The Messina Strait is characterized by strong deformations in Pliocene and
Pleistocene times, but considering the historical seismicity, significant uncertainity exists as …

Balancing of structural cross sections is often hindered by a limited database or tectonic
complications. In such cases, kinematic constraints may help to better constrain the …

Southern Italy is dominated by extensional tectonics that in the Calabrian arc and Eastern
Sicily produced the development of the Siculo–Calabrian Rift Zone (SCRZ). This zone is …
