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.

DOI: 10.1002/jqs.2966
Abstract: Diversified deep-water corals and associated communities occur in early Pleistocene (early Calabrian; ∼1.7–1.6 Ma) calcareous crusts discovered on the south-western coast of Karpathos Island (eastern Greece). Apart from abundant and conspicuous solitary and colonial corals… read more here.

Assessing the origin of Sr and Nd isotopes and (REE+Y) in Middle-Upper Pleistocene travertines from the Acquasanta Terme area (Marche, central Italy) and implications for neotectonics

DOI: 10.1016/j.apgeochem.2020.104596
Abstract: Abstract Pleistocene (bedded) travertines from Acquasanta Terme display ranges of Sr and (REE + Y) contents (462–1576 mg/kg and 250–13,789 ng/g, respectively), which are consistent with an evaporitic rock source. PAAS-normalized (REE + Y) patterns may support the origin of travertine-bearing… read more here.
