Late Palaeozoic tectonics in Central Mediterranean: a reappraisal
A revision of late Palaeozoic tectonics recorded in Tuscany, Calabria and Corsica is here

Constraining the timing of evolution of shear zones in two collisional orogens: fusing structural geology and geochronology
In recent decades, constraining the timing of shear activity has been one of the main topics
of research about the tectono-metamorphic evolution of orogenic belts. We present a review …

Three‐dimensional vorticity and time‐constrained evolution of the Main Central Thrust zone, Garhwal Himalaya (NW India)
Vorticity estimates based on porphyroclasts analysis are limited by the extrapolation to three
dimensions of two‐dimensional data. We describe a 3D approach based on the use of X‐ray …
