A comprehensive dataset of the geophilid centipedes of the south-eastern Alps (Chilopoda, Geophilomorpha, Geophilidae s.l.) [PDF]
Biodiversity Data JournalCentipedes of the family Geophilidae s.l. are widespread in the Holarctic, with the south-eastern part of the European Alps standing out as one of the most investigated regions.

Orogenic structure and topography track subduction singularities during slab delamination and detachment [PDF]
Scientific ReportsA new model of Alpine mountain-building based on state-of-the-art seismic imaging explains how slab delamination and detachment facilitated indentation and led to along-strike changes in orogenic structure, denudation and basin dynamics.

Slab Load Controls Beneath the Alps on the Source-to-Sink Sedimentary Pathways in the Molasse Basin
Geosciences, 2022 The stratigraphic development of foreland basins has mainly been related to surface loading in the adjacent orogens, whereas the control of slab loads on these basins has received much less attention.

Two subduction-related heterogeneities beneath the Eastern Alps and the Bohemian Massif imaged by high-resolution P-wave tomography [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2022 We present high-resolution tomographic images of the upper mantle beneath the Eastern Alps and the adjacent Bohemian Massif (BM) in the north based on recordings from the AlpArray-EASI and AlpArray seismic networks. The tomography locates the Alpine high-

The molecular population structure of Swertia perennis (Gentianaceae) in Central Europe
Scientific Reports, 2023 Phylogeographic analysis of Swertia perennis, a typical European subalpine springtime species, revealed the existence of at least five major phylogenetic lineages. A large phylogeographic separation exists among these geographical regions, which confirms

Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Many convergent orogens, such as the eastern European Alps, display an asymmetric doubly vergent wedge geometry. In doubly vergent orogens, deepest exhumation occurs above the retro‐wedge.

Pliensbachian, Early Jurassic radiolarians from Mount Rettenstein in the Northern Calcareous Alps, Austria [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2020 One of the best preserved Early Pliensbachian radiolarian assemblages from the Western Tethys is described from the grey marly limestone exposed at Mount Rettenstein in the Northern Calcareous Alps, south of the Dachstein Massif.

Regional centroid moment tensor inversion of small to moderate earthquakes in the Alps using the dense AlpArray seismic network: challenges and seismotectonic insights [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2021 The Alpine mountains in central Europe are characterized by a heterogeneous crust accumulating different tectonic units and blocks in close proximity to sedimentary foreland basins.
