The outer Northern Apennines (ONA) are an arc-shaped fold-and-thrust belt, with northeastward convexity and vergence, that plunges northwestward, extending through Romagna and Umbria—Marche to northern Latium. From the SW to the NE, it is situated between the inner Northern Apennines and the Po Plain—Adriatic foreland.

Tertiary extensional tectonics in Tuscany (Northern Apennines, Italy)
Tectonophysics, 1994Abstract Two extensional events have been recognized in the Tertiary evolution of Tuscany. The first event occurred in the period between the Late Oligocene and Late Tortonian and caused a stretching of 120% or greater; the second event occurred between the Late Tortonian and Quaternary Periods and caused a stretching not greater than 10%.

Scree vegetation in the northern Apennines (N-Italy)
Phytocoenologia, 2021Aims: This paper presents the results of phytosociological research on scree vegetation in the northern Apennines with the aim of comparing vegetation types classified in different syntaxa. The specific objectives were: 1) to identify, classify and describe the vegetation units of scree communities; 2) to pinpoint the main ecological gradients ...

The northern apennines geosyncline and continental drift
Sedimentary Geology, 1970Abstract The history of the Northern Apennines is difficult to be accounted for without recurring to relative horizontal displacement of crust masses. The ophiolitic stage of the eugeosyncline might be considered as the product of divergent drift, with disruption of the sialic crust, and formation of an “oceanic” crack. The subsequent closure of the

The geosyncline concept and the northern apennines
Sedimentary Geology, 1970Abstract The area of the Northern Appennines is considered a geosyncline on account of strong subsidence followed by an Alpine-type deformation. The Northern Apennines are now regarded mainly as a structural unit, characterized by an arched system of folds with overthrusts and decollement nappes and an eastward polarity.

Multidisciplinary Study of the Torrio Landslide (Northern Apennines, Italy)
2013The multidisciplinary approach (geological and geomorphological studies, structural analysis, geoelectrical and seismic surveys, borehole data) utilized in this research allowed the definition of a reliable geological model of the Torrio landslide, one of the largest mass movements of the whole Northern Apennines occurring in the Aveto valley (Emilia ...

Anatomy of late orogenic extension: The Northern Apennines case
Tectonophysics, 1994Abstract Late orogenic extensional structures overprint the compressional structures of the Northern Apennines fold and thrust belt. The Tyrrhenian Sea is the result of major continental extension and rifting which started in the thickened zone of the Apulian/ Corso-Sardinian collision.

Miocene chemoherms of the northern Apennines, Italy
Geology, 1999In the Miocene of the northern Apennines, methane-derived limestones from various geologic settings represent important examples of fossil chemoherms and provide a basis for more accurate interpretations of seepage systems. The systematic study of fossil chemoherms has allowed the definition of new field and compositional criteria for the recognition ...

The vegetation of wetlands in the northern Apennines (Italy)
Phytocoenologia, 1993The vegetation of wetlands in the northern Apennines includes eighteen plant communities, as defined by cluster analyses of phytosociological releves. Most of the present wetlands represent successional stages in the terrestrialization process of ancient lakes originated in glacial times.

Heat-flow measurements on the Northern Apennine arc
Tectonophysics, 1977Abstract Temperature and thermal-conductivity measurements have been carried out for six boreholes along a profile crossing the Northern Apennine chain. The heat flow varies from 95 mWm −2 in Tuscany to 23 mWm −2 in Romagna. In the light of global tectonics these values support the hypothesis that the Northern Apennine chain is a continental arc ...
