Reconciling plate-tectonic reconstructions of Alpine Tethys with the geological–geophysical record of spreading and subduction in the Alps [PDF]

, 2010
accommodate this slab retreat in a very mobile fashion, while the continental core of the Adriatic microplate acted as a rigid indenter within the Alpine collisional zone.

Long‐Term Exposure of Bivalves to Ocean Acidification and Warming Under Ecologically‐Realistic Conditions Reveals Risks for Aquaculture by 2050 in the Mediterranean

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Bivalve mollusks are vital to coastal economies and food security, yet the impact of ocean warming and acidification on aquaculture remains unclear due to a lack of ground truth data on future production. Most experimental studies rely on short‐term, single‐factor experiments in stable and food‐unlimited environments, making it difficult to ...

Tsunamis scenarios in the Adriatic Sea [PDF]

, 2008
We calculated the expected impact on the Italian coast of the Adriatic Sea of a large set of tsunamis resulting from potential earthquakes generated by major fault zones.

Unravelling the tectonic evolution of the Dinarides—Alps—Pannonian Basin transition zone: insights from structural analysis and low-temperature thermochronology from Ivanščica Mt., NW Croatia

Swiss Journal of Geosciences
A comprehensive study, including geological mapping, structural and thermochronological analysis, has been carried out on Ivanščica Mountain (NW Croatia), with the aim to reconstruct the tectonic history of the Dinarides, Southern/Eastern Alps and ...

How Fluid Pressures and Viscous Rheologies Affect Slip Patterns on Low‐Angle Normal Faults: The Example of the Altotiberina Fault, Northern Apennines, Italy

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Low‐angle normal faults are a mechanical anomaly, hosting normal‐sense slip despite having a dip shallower than 30°, in contravention of Andersonian prediction. Slip on such faults has been attributed to overpressurized fluids or low‐friction minerals. An example of such a fault is the Altotiberina Fault (ATF) in central Italy. The ATF hanging

Kinematic Evolution of the Cephalonia‐Lefkada Transform Fault Zone: Strain Partitioning in Response to Subduction Margin Dynamics

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The eastern Adriatic margin is composed by an Ocean‐Continent Transition lithosphere (OCT), resulting in the southwards along‐strike variation from collision to subduction. The Cephalonia‐Lefkada Transform Fault zone (CTF) is a right‐lateral strike‐slip fault system located above the OCT and associated to this kinematic transition.

Lithospheric Structure of the Dinarides‐Adriatic Region From Ambient Noise Eikonal Tomography

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The Dinarides, a mountain range along the eastern edge of the Adria microplate, is the focus of the ongoing extensive geophysical research due to its complex tectonic features and importance in the evolution of the central Mediterranean. There are numerous open questions about the interaction and movement of Adria in the last 20 Ma with ...

Volcano-sedimentary-evaporitic rocks from an aborted Triassic rift and Cretaceous to Palaeogene Adriatic Carbonate Platform successions: OAEs, K–Pg boundary and the Palaeocene platform top (central Dalmatian islands, Croatia) [PDF]

, 2023
The central Adriatic Vis archipelago was in 2019 recognized as a UNESCO Global Geopark. The islands are characterized by the oldest and the youngest rocks in the Adriatic, owing to salt tectonics that characterize the area.

Crustal structure due to collisional and escape tectonics in the eastern Alps region based on profiles Alp01 and Alp02 from the ALP 2002 seismic experiment [PDF]

, 2007
Alp01 and Alp02 are the longest profiles recorded during ALP 2002, a large international seismic refraction and wide-angle reflection experiment undertaken in the Eastern Alps in 2002. Alp01 crosses the Alpine orogen from north to south, thus providing a
