Alps to Apennines zircon roller coaster along the Adria microplate margin [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 We have traced the particle path of high-pressure metasedimentary rocks on Elba Island, Northern Apennines, with the help of a U-Pb-Hf detrital zircon study. One quarter of the analysed zircons are surprisingly young, 41-30 Ma, with a main age peak at ca.

Deriving a New Crustal Model of Northern Adria: The Northern Adria Crust (NAC) Model
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 We presented a new 3D model of the geophysical properties of the crust (namely depth of the Moho and VP, VS, density, Young’s modulus, and shear modulus) of the northern tip of the Adria microplate that we called NAC (Northern Adria Crust).

Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2022 Supported by evidence of deep crustal sources for the observed magnetic anomalies in Central Italy and by outcropping gabbros in the Croatian archipelago, we model the observed gravity and magnetic anomalies in the Central Adriatic Sea and surroundings.

The Dinaric fault system: Large‐scale structure, rates of slip, and Plio‐Pleistocene evolution of the transpressive northeastern boundary of the Adria microplate [PDF]
Tectonics, 2016 AbstractLocated at the northeastern corner of the Adria microplate, the Alps‐Dinarides junction represents a key region for understanding how the Adria microplate interacts with stable Europe. However, little is known on how the present‐day deformation imposed by the rotation of the Adria microplate is absorbed across the Dinarides.

The two-sided continental subduction of the Adria microplate (Mediterranean)
GeologyAbstract The recycling of the continental lithosphere back into the mantle significantly impacts the structure and dynamics of orogens, particularly in the central Mediterranean region. We demonstrate that variations in the rheological properties of the continental lithosphere, as revealed by high-resolution regional tomography ...

Tracking Adria indentation beneath the Alps by detrital zircon U-Pb geochronology: Implications for the Oligocene–Miocene dynamics of the Adriatic microplate [PDF]
Geology, 2016 The Adriatic microplate is a key player in the Western Mediterranean tectonic puzzle, but its Oligocene–Miocene dynamics are not yet fully understood. In fact, even though the timing and magnitude of Adriatic slab rollback and backarc extension in the Apennines have long been established, the timing of progressive Adria indentation beneath the Central ...

Reconsidering paleozoic differences between the Jadar block and the Drina-Ivanjica unit [PDF]
Geološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2020 The peculiar Jadar block has an intervening position separating the main Neotethyan West Vardar Zone (including ophiolites of Late Jurassic age) and a passive margin lithospheric segment of the Apulia/Adria microplate referred to as the Drina-Ivanjica ...

Adria microplate fragmentation: geophysical perspective
, 2021 Adriatic microplate (Adria) has been a major component of the central Mediterranean geodynamic history since at least Late Cretaceous time. Although Cenozoic motion of Adria is relatively well established, there remains several open questions regarding its dynamics.
