Pliocene-Quaternary orogenic systems in Central Mediterranean: the Apulia-Southern Apennines-Tyrrhenian Sea example
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Tectonics"
DOI: 10.1002/2017tc004571
Abstract: In the Central Mediterranean the Africa-Eurasia convergence led to the development of complex orogenic systems and backarc basins. Throughout Pliocene-Quaternary times the Southern Apennines accretionary prism migrated towards the Apulia foreland and, contemporaneously, the Tyrrhenian… read more here.

Predictive distribution models of European hake in the south-central Mediterranean Sea
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Hydrobiologia"
DOI: 10.1007/s10750-017-3338-5
Abstract: The effective management and conservation of fishery resources requires knowledge of their spatial distribution and notably of their critical life history stages. Predictive modelling of the European hake (Merluccius merluccius L., 1758) distribution was developed… read more here.
