Abstract
The present-day physiographic-tectonic features of the Central Mediterranean region are the product of the geodynamic evolution in which a fundamental role is played by the distribution of crustal components. The orogenic belt is located between an old oceanic crust, the Ionian basin, which has been partially consumed, and a new oceanic crust, the abyssal plane of the Tyrrhenian basin. Moreover, the CROP-Mare project recognized a continental crust in the circum-Tyrrhenian margins associated with migrated tectonic stacks that were colliding with the continental blocks of the Africa and Adria plates.File in questo prodotto:
