Kinematic Evolution of the Cephalonia‐Lefkada Transform Fault Zone: Strain Partitioning in Response to Subduction Margin Dynamics

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The eastern Adriatic margin is composed by an Ocean‐Continent Transition lithosphere (OCT), resulting in the southwards along‐strike variation from collision to subduction. The Cephalonia‐Lefkada Transform Fault zone (CTF) is a right‐lateral strike‐slip fault system located above the OCT and associated to this kinematic transition.

Petrogenetic and geochemical characteristics of some auriferous granitoids in the Kumasi Basin, Ghana: Implications for geodynamic settings and controls of orogenic gold mineralization in the Edikan Gold Mine

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 406-421, September 2025.
The Fobinso granitoids are granodiorites, while the Esuajah granitoids are granites based on their mineralogical composition. The granitoids are generally enriched in LILE and LREE than HFSE, MREE, and HREE, indicating mixing with crustal sources during their evolution.

Bimodal Slip Segmentation of the SW Hellenic Megathrust Revealed by the Mw 6.8 Methoni Earthquake Sequence and Tomography

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The influence of geological and structural heterogeneity on the megathrust slip behavior in subduction zones has been widely discussed for both the lower‐ and upper‐plates. In this work, we present OBS local earthquake tomography on the outer forearc domain of the SW Hellenic subduction zone performed with the aftershocks of the 2008 Mw 6.8 ...

Tectonostratigraphic terranes and zones juxtaposed along the Mid-Hungarian Line: their contrasting evolution and relationships [PDF]

, 2010
The Mid-Hungarian (or Zagreb-Zemplin) Line of WSW–ENE strike divides the Pannonian basement into two mega-units, the Tisia Composite Terrane in the SE and the ALCAPA Composite Terrane in the NW. They became juxtaposed no earlier than the Middle Miocene

Combining 3‐D Deep Electrical Resistivity Tomography With Magnetic Surveys to Investigate Complex Tectonic Basins: A Case Study From the Central Apennines Seismic Belt (Italy)

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract We use an innovative geophysical approach to reconstruct the deep structure of Campo Felice, an important extensional basin in the central Apennines (Italy) where active crustal extension is accommodated by normal faults capable of generating earthquakes of magnitude MW 6+.
