Abstract: Abstract We present a study on the mylonites exposed in the Cirella area along the Tyrrhenian coast of northern Calabria (southern Italy), in order to understand the role of ductile and brittle deformation on the… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Fold and thrust belts (FTBs) accommodate tectonic convergence through folding and faulting of crustal rocks during a collisional event between two continental plates. Although evidence of distributed deformation is common in FTBs that usually… read more here.
