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 …

The Mediterranean offers a unique opportunity to study the driving forces of tectonic
deformation within a complex mobile belt. Lithospheric dynamics are affected by slab …

To investigate the kinematics of the Adriatic region, we integrate continuous and episodic
GPS measurements with Mw> 4.5 earthquake slip vectors selected from the Regional …

High-MgO ultrapotassic rocks are found in four different areas of the Western Mediterranean
basin associated in space and time with shoshonitic and calc-alkaline rocks. They represent …

Abstract The Middle East region represents a key site within the Tethyan domain where
continental break-up, collision, backarc extension and escape tectonics are kinematically …

The Miocene rotation of Sardinia (Western Mediterranean) remains poorly constrained
despite a wealth of paleomagnetic data, primarily due to poor chronostratigraphic control …

This global study of 31 off-shore back-arc basins and subbasins (BABs) identifies their
principal characteristics based on a broad spectrum of geophysical and subduction-related …

This paper aims at summarizing the current extent and architecture of the former Mesozoic
passive margin of North Africa from North Algeria in the west up to the Ionian‐Calabrian arc …

We report on a high-resolution Vp, Vp/Vs and Qp model of the southern Tyrrhenian
subduction zone, obtained by the inversion of P-and S-wave arrival times and t∗ values from …
