Pb and Hf isotope evidence for mantle enrichment processes and melt interactions in the lower crust and lithospheric mantle in Miocene orogenic volcanic rocks from Monte Arcuentu (Sardinia, Italy) [PDF]
, 2018 Miocene (ca. 18 Ma) subduction-related basalts and basaltic andesites from Monte Arcuentu, southern Sardinia, Italy, show a remarkable correlation between 87Sr/86Sr (from ~0.705 to ~0.711) over a small range of SiO2 (~51–58 wt%) that contrasts with most ...

Tectono-metamorphic evolution of the continental units along the edge between Alpine and Hercynian Corsica [PDF]
, 2022 In this work the central area of Corsica island was studied in order to reconstruct the tectono-metamorphic history of the continental and oceanic high pressure units that occupy the structurally deeper levels of the tectonic stacking of Alpine Corsica ...

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract The paleomagnetism of Miocene calc‐alkaline volcanics and sediments from Sardinia has firmly showed that the Corsica‐Sardinia microplate rotated 50°–60° counterclockwise (CCW) with respect to Europe between 21 and 15 Ma, during its drift from the Provencal margin. However, Permian to Eocene rocks from central‐south Sardinia revealed higher (up

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract The tectonic evolution of the Eastern Pyrenees from the orogenic mountain building to the post‐orogenic dismantling is still debated. Since the Oligocene, the Gulf of Lion rifting in the Western Mediterranean superimposed crustal extension in this eastern part of the Pyrenean belt, while compressional tectonics persisted in the Central ...

Pan‐European Landslide Risk Assessment: From Theory to Practice
Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 1, March 2025.Abstract Assessing landslide risk is a fundamental requirement to plan suitable prevention actions. To date, most risk studies focus on individual slopes or catchments. Whereas regional, national or continental scale assessments are hardly available because of methodological and/or data limitations.
