Hydrothermal dolomitisation of a deep‐water bioherm isolated in a non‐dolomitised intraplatform basin within the Norian Dolomia Principale (Southern Alps, northern Italy)

The Depositional Record
The Norian Dolomia Principale in the Southern Alps, northern Italy, is composed of fully dolomitised carbonate platforms, locally interrupted by intraplatform basins that are only partially or not affected by dolomitisation.

Identification of a Quaternary rock avalanche deposit (Central Apennines, Italy): Significance for recognition of fossil catastrophic mass-wasting. [PDF]

Sedimentology, 2022
Abstract Whereas deposits of extremely‐rapid, ‘catastrophic’ mass wastings >105 m3 in volume (for example, the Marocche di Dro rock avalanche in the Southern Alps and the Flims rockslide in the Western Alps) are easily recognized by their sheer mass and blocky surface, the identification of fossil catastrophic mass wastings partly removed by erosion ...

Buried Alive: Imaging the 9 November 2022, Mw 5.5 Earthquake Source on the Offshore Adriatic Blind Thrust Front of the Northern Apennines (Italy)

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 50, Issue 11, 16 June 2023., 2023
Abstract The prompt identification of faults responsible for moderate‐to‐large earthquakes is fundamental for understanding the likelihood of further, potentially damaging events. This is increasingly challenging when the activated fault is an offshore buried thrust, where neither coseismic surface ruptures nor GPS/InSAR deformation data are available ...

Scattering Attenuation Images of the Control of Thrusts and Fluid Overpressure on the 2016–2017 Central Italy Seismic Sequence

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 50, Issue 8, 28 April 2023., 2023
Abstract Deep fluid circulation likely triggered the large extensional events of the 2016–2017 Central Italy seismic sequence. Nevertheless, the connection between fault mechanisms, main crustal‐scale thrusts, and the circulation and interaction of fluids with tectonic structures controlling the sequence is still debated.

Geoarchaeological characterisation of a Younger Dryas site in the Alpine uplands: Cornafessa rock shelter (Italy)

Geoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 35-56, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract The effects of the Younger Dryas (YD) fluctuation on Late Pleistocene hunter‐gatherers' settlement and subsistence systems in the southern Alps are poorly known. This is primarily due to the scarcity of archaeological sites dating from the YD, in contrast with the extensive evidence available from the lateglacial interstadial and the early ...

The Montello Thrust and the Active Mountain Front of the Eastern Southern Alps (Northeast Italy)

Tectonics, Volume 41, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract New field and subsurface data are combined to define the geometry and evolution of the mountain front of the eastern Southern Alps. The Montello thrust (MT), the southernmost frontal structure, is reconstructed by recently published well‐located microseismicity and is connected at depth with the larger Bassano‐Valdobbiadene (BV) thrust.

Non‐classical crystallization of very high magnesium calcite and magnesite in the Coorong Lakes, Australia

Sedimentology, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page 2246-2266, August 2022., 2022
Abstract The Coorong Lakes, South Australia, are one of the models for unravelling the ‘Dolomite Problem’. Critically, today only a few modern environments remain where large quantities of very high magnesium calcite (VHMC; Ca0.5Mg0.5CO3; also described as protodolomite or disordered dolomite) and magnesite (MgCO3) precipitate.

A LATE TRIASSIC OSTRACOD ASSEMBLAGE FROM THE QUATTERVALS NAPPE (AUSTROALPINE, NORTHERN ITALY)

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2000
The up to 1200 m thick Norian succession of the Quattervals Nappe (Central Austroalpine, Italy) documents a tectonically-driven passage from intertidal facies (Dolomia Principale-Hauptdolomit), represented by early-dolomitized bedded to massive gray ...
