Zircon dissolution in a ductile shear zone, Monte Rosa granite gneiss, northern Italy [PDF]

, 2008
The sizes, distributions and shapes of zircon grains within variably deformed granite gneiss from the western Alps have been studied. Zircon shows numerous indicators of a metamorphic response in both the host gneiss and a 5 cm wide continuous ductile ...

Summer Mistral at the Exit of the Rhone Valley [PDF]

, 2004
The paper examines the three-dimensional structure and dynamics of the mistral at the Rhône valley exit on 28 June 2001. The mistral refers to a severe wind that develops along the Rhône valley in southern France. This summer mistral event was documented

Geology of the southern Gran Paradiso Massif and Lower Piedmont Zone contact area (middle Ala Valley, Western Alps, Italy)

Journal of Maps, 2021
This work presents the structural evolution of a poorly studied key-area in the middle Ala Valley, Western Alps, where two tectono-metamorphic units are exposed.

Post-collisional tectonics in the Northern Cottian Alps (Italian Western Alps) [PDF]

International Journal of Earth Sciences, 2010
ield mapping and structural analysis have allowed us to characterise the fault geometry and the post-metamorphic tectonics of an area located in the Northern Cottian Alps (inner Western Alps). Two main faulting stages were distinguished here. The first (Oligocene?-Early Miocene) is related to the development of an E-W-striking left-normal shear zone ...

Seismotectonics of a low-deformation area: the central Western Alps (Italy) [PDF]

, 2011
This work is based on the integration of detailed field mapping, structural analysis and updated seismological data for the central Western Alps. In this area, three regional, steeply-dipping fault systems seem to be connected to the current seismic ...

Highlights on mantle deformation beneath the Western Alps with seismic anisotropy using CIFALPS2 data [PDF]

Solid Earth
There are still open questions about the deep structure beneath the Western Alps. Seismic velocity tomographies show the European slab subducting beneath the Adria plate, but all these images did not clarify completely the possible presence of tears ...

Status and distribution of the lynx in the Swiss Alps 2000–2004

Acta Biologica Slovenica, 2006
To evaluate the 2000–2004 status of lynx in the Swiss Alps, we outlined the trend within the large carnivore management compartments and estimated the number of lynx present. Throughout Switzerland all reports of lynx signs of presence were collected and

Present status and distribution of the Lynx in the Swiss Alps

Hystrix, the Italian Journal of Mammalogy, 2001
<strong>Abstract</strong> To evaluate the population trend of lynx in the Swiss Alps, we analysed the spatial and numerical development of signs of presence found from 1995 to 1999 and compared them with previous years.
