Aesthetically appealing thrust systems and related large-scale anticlines, in both active and
fossil foreland fold-and-thrust belts, and the economic potential associated with them, have …

Compressional inversion of former extensional sedimentary basins is a particularly common
phenomenon, given that passive margins share the same destiny of being subsequently …

There is growing concern about seismicity triggered by human activities, whereby small
increases in stress bring tectonically loaded faults to failure. Examples of such activities …

This paper furnishes a brief, but exhaustive, description of the tectonics and stratigraphy of
the Campania region (southern Italy). The attached geological map (Main Map) at 1 …

Temporal controls such as sedimentation ages, in foredeep and wedge-top basins,
combined with information about stratigraphic and metamorphic evolution, ages and …

This work focuses on the role played by depositional/diagenetic heterogeneities on the
vertical growth of sub-seismic, high-angle structural elements such as joints, sheared joints …

Based on a detailed structural study performed on a reservoir surface analogue, a fracture
permeability model for carbonate reservoirs is proposed. This involves four hierarchical …

Through-going joints cutting across beds are often invoked to match large-scale
permeability patterns in tight carbonate reservoirs. However, despite the importance of these …

This work focuses on the nature, relative timing, and multi-scale dimensional properties of
both background and fault-related fracture networks that crosscut the Lower Cretaceous …

In this study we performed a fracture analysis on a Cretaceous bedded carbonate
succession well exposed in the Sorrento Peninsula. The studied succession includes …
