Imaging the Alpine Collision With Seismic Radial Anisotropy

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Alpine region and the adjacent Northern Apennines (NA) and Northern Dinarides record the complex tectonic evolution associated with the collision between the Eurasian and Adriatic plates. We combine Rayleigh and Love surface waves from ambient noise and earthquake data recorded at over 3,300 seismic stations to construct a high‐resolution ...

A brief insight into the Upper Triassic to Miocene sedimentary succession of the External Dinarides, SE of Dubrovnik (southern Croatia)

open access: yes, 2023
The Konavle area located in the very southeast of the Republic of Croatia encompasses a large part of the entire External Dinarides sedimentary sequence, almost 5 km in thickness.

The Helicoidal Fault Systems of Vinodol (Croatia) and Their Genesis

open access: yesGeologia Croatica, 2010
The basic geological features of the helicoidal fault systems of the Vinodol area are outlined. Its genesis is explained by a model proposing collisional stress implied on previollsly formed en echelon folds.

Present‐Day Kinematics of Continental Greece and Balkans Revealed by Sentinel‐1 InSAR Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Balkan Peninsula hosts the highest seismic activity in Europe, marked by numerous Mw6+ earthquakes in diverse tectonic settings. Assessing tectonic surface deformation is crucial to understand the forces controlling kinematics and, ultimately, constraining geodynamic models. However, because measuring slow velocity rates (a few mm/yr) with

The Two Stages of Structural Formation of the Coastal Belt of the External Dinarides

open access: yesGeologia Croatica, 2010
Two successive stages of tectonism have been responsible for the formation of structures in the coastal part of the External Dinarides. As a result, Dinaride- and Hvar-striking structures formed, showing NW-SE and E-W strike orientation, respectively.

High-Resolution Crustal S-wave Velocity Model and Moho Geometry Beneath the Southeastern Alps: New Insights From the SWATH-D Experiment

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
We compiled a dataset of continuous recordings from the temporary and permanent seismic networks to compute the high-resolution 3D S-wave velocity model of the Southeastern Alps, the western part of the external Dinarides, and the Friuli and Venetian ...

Active Tectonics of the Eastern and Southern Alps ‐ Crustal Response to Deep Processes? A Review

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Owing to the low N‐S convergence rates between Adria and Europe, crustal deformation rates in the Alps and its forelands are low. Active tectonics are, therefore, difficult to study, especially as non‐tectonic landscape forming processes can erase or modify the tectonic surface imprint. Large‐scale and dense seismological data recently offered

Principles of the tectonic subdivision of Slovenia

open access: yesGeologija, 2008
New tectonic subdivision of the junction region between Alps and Dinarides which incorporates Eastern Alps, Southern Alps, Dinarides, Pannonian basin and Adriatic-Apulia foreland is described in this article.

Triassic evolution of the Adriatic-Dinaridic platform’s continental margins—insights from rare dolerite subvolcanic intrusions in External Dinarides, Croatia

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2023
This contribution reports new findings on petrogenesis and possible geotectonic setting of rare subvolcanic Triassic(?) dolerite cropping out in External Dinarides with a goal to contribute to the debate on the geodynamic evolution of the continental ...

Probabilistic Assessment of Variable Slip Rates of Offshore Buried Thrusts in the Central Adriatic Sea (Italy) Since the Pliocene Time

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Understanding the recent tectonic activity of buried faults represents a challenge for scientists. In the offshore portion of the Northern and Central Apennines foredeep basin in the Central Adriatic Sea, Italy, high sedimentation rates, exceeding tectonic uplift since the Pliocene, and the offshore location are hampering the detection of ...
