Probabilistic Assessment of the Causes of Active Deformation in Greece, Western Anatolia, and the Balkans Using Finite Element Models

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract We constrain the contribution of driving and resistive regional forces to the observed surface deformation in the Nubia‐Eurasia plate boundary region. We use a viscoelastic mechanical model with fault zones representing regional active faults. Deformation is driven by velocities of surrounding plates and by lateral variations in gravitational ...

Fossil polychaetes of the Lower Carnian limestone at Lesno Brdo, central Slovenia

Geologija, 2018
Lower Carnian massive limestone, quarried at Lesno Brdo in central Slovenia, contains irregular lenses of limestone riddled with fossil agglutinated tubes of Terebellida (Polychaeta).

Deciphering Pleistocene Fault Activity in the Eastern Alps: Dating Fault Gouges With Electron Spin Resonance and Optically Stimulated Luminescence

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The Eastern Alps have been influenced by post‐collisional indentation tectonics since the Miocene. Currently, Adria‐Europe convergence, albeit slow, is accommodated and distributed across several faults. The seismogenic potential of some of these faults is unclear. We applied optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) and electron spin resonance (

Signs of crustal extension in Lower Jurassic carbonates from central Slovenia

Geologija
The Lower Jurassic Podbukovje Formation represents a succession of shallow marine carbonate rocks deposited on the former Southern Tethyan Megaplatform and one of its successors, the Adriatic Carbonate Platform.

Preservation of Primary Si Isotope Signatures in Devonian Lahn‐Dill‐Type Iron Ores as Revealed by Femtosecond Laser Ablation

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Silicon isotopic ratios (expressed as δ30Si) become established as a powerful tool to decipher the formation processes of quartz deposits throughout the Earth's history. In this study, we established a protocol for matrix‐independent in situ Si isotopic analysis using ultraviolet femtosecond laser ablation (UV fs LA) coupled to multi‐collector

Building Topography in a Continental Subduction Orogen: Insights From Geomorphic Analysis and 10Be Denudation Rates of the Albanides

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Understanding the relationship between surface and deep geological processes in tectonically active settings is crucial for unraveling the factors controlling landscape evolution and topographic growth. Here, we present the first basin‐averaged 10Be‐derived denudation rates for the Albanides, a subduction orogen in the Central Mediterranean ...

Sur un magmatisme jeune dans les Dinarides externes de Yougoslavie

Bulletin de la Société Géologique de France, 1960
Abstract Reports and describes occurrences of rhyolite in the top of the upper Cretaceous Flysch deposits of the Durmitor region in Montenegro, Yugoslavia. The field evidence suggests that the rhyolites and their tuffs are contemporaneous with the Flysch, and are Maestrichtian-Danian in age.

Kinematics and Age of the Orogen‐Perpendicular Shkoder‐Peja Normal Fault in North Albania Constrained by Fault‐Slip Data, Raman Spectroscopy and K‐Ar Fault‐Gouge Dating

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The Shkoder‐Peja Normal Fault (SPNF) is the largest orogen‐perpendicular fault on the Balkan Peninsula, separating the Dinarides fold‐and‐thrust belt in the north from the Hellenides in the south. It has accommodated orogen‐parallel extension during clockwise oroclinal bending of the Hellenic segment and juxtaposes Adriatic shelf successions ...

Upper Carnian Clastites from the Lesno Brdo Area (Dinarides, Central Slovenia)

Geologija, 2017
This paper presents a detailed study of the Tuvalian clastic member in the Lesno Brdo Area in Central Slovenia (External Dinarides). The member represents the uppermost part of the mixed siliciclastic – carbonate Carnian succesion that overlays the ...

The Tectonostratigraphic Expression of Slab Breakoff in Foreland Basins: Insights From 2D Forward Stratigraphic Modeling

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Changes in foreland basin architecture have been attributed to slab breakoff based on qualitative assessments of geological data. However, this cause‐effect relationship has not been evaluated quantitatively. In this contribution, we use a one‐way coupling approach between 2D thermomechanical models of slab breakoff and 2D stratigraphic ...
