Extension and inversion of salt-bearing rift systems [PDF]
We used physical models to investigate the structural evolution of segmented extensional rifts containing syn-rift evaporites and their subsequent inversion. An early stage of extension generated structural topography consisting of a series of en-échelon

From shallow-water carbonate ramp to hemipelagic deep-marine carbonate deposition: Part 1. General characteristics, microfacies and depositional history of the Middle to Late Anisian Bulog sedimentary succession in the Inner Dinarides (SW Serbia) [PDF]
The opening of the Neo‐Tethys started in the Middle Anisian and is recorded in the drowning succession of the shallow‐water Ravni/Steinalm Carbonate Ramp and the subsequent deposition of deep‐marine limestones, e.g., the red nodular limestones of the ...

Cuban Archipelago geologic evolution reveals a W to E migration in Early Mezo–Cenozoic vulcanism and magmatism as well as an increased activity in neotectonics, seismicity, and recent secular endodynamics originating a conspicuous geomorphological ...

The island of Ischia, an active volcanic field emerging in the western sector of the Gulf of Naples (Southern Italy), represents an archetypal case of caldera that underwent a very large resurgence related to the intrusion of a shallow magma body.

Tectonic geomorphology of the Kemalpaşa Basin and surrounding horsts, southwestern part of the Gediz Graben, Western Anatolia [PDF]
The Kemalpaşa Basin is one of the Quaternary basins in Western Anatolia and represents the south-western branch of the Gediz Graben system in this extensional province. This basin has been formed under the NNE–SSW trending extensional tectonic regime.

The Dobi graben is a Quaternary, NW-trending continental rift found within the East-Central Block (ECB) of the Afar Depression (AD) in Ethiopia. The AD might be the only place where three active rifts meet on land.

Relevant aspects to the recognition of extensional environments in the field
The understanding of each geological-structural aspect in the field is fundamental to be able to reconstruct the geological history of a region and to give a geological meaning to the data acquired in the outcrop.
