An integrated study of onshore and offshore geology the Ross Sea region (namely, Victoria Land, north Island, Sea, Antarctica) has revealed a complex, post‐Eocene tectonic framework. Regional NW‐SE right‐lateral, strike‐slip faults are outstanding feature this framework overprint an older Mesozoic extensional event, responsible for formation N‐S basins in Sea. The Cenozoic includes kinematic deformation reactivation along faults, including pull‐apart basins, both positive negative flower...
This study is mainly based on a wide Very High Resolution Seismic (VHRS) survey that utilized an ad hoc technique designed for investigations in very shallow waters (about 1 m depth). method allowed the acquisition of excellent images subsurface down to 15–20 b.s.l. with resolution about 10 cm. Buried geomorphological features, such as fluvial channel‐levee systems and tidal channels, were imaged first time shallows provided new insight into Holocene evolution southern lagoon basin....
Multichannel seismic data collected off Wilkes Land (East Antarctica) reveal four main units that represent distinct phases in the evolution of Cenozoic depositional environment. A Cretaceous synrift succession is overlain by hemipelagic and distal terrigenous sequences deposited during Phase 1. Sediment ridges debris-flow deposits mark transition to 2. Unit 3 records maximum sediment input from continent characterized predominance turbidite deposits. During 4 supply continental margin was...
The southernmost tip of South America is an active continental margin where oblique convergence between plates, transcurrent motion, and tectonic rotation on land make the geodynamic setting more complex than that central Andes. A multichannel seismic data set has been used in conjunction with multibeam altimetry to clarify regional architecture from 50°S 57°S. Despite thick sedimentary section trench slow plate rate peculiar typical accretionary margins, reflection profiles image widely...
Terra Nova, 22, 324–329, 2010 Abstract The contributions of eustasy and tectonics to the development stratigraphic sequences are commonly hard discern, this has been a controversial topic that is still being debated. New data therefore necessary improve our understanding factors govern sedimentary cyclicity. Data from subsiding Venice uplifting Crotone areas in Italy allow recognition different effects Late Quaternary glacio-eustatic changes regional on sequence architecture at temporal...
Abstract The Plio-Quaternary tectonic evolution of the central sector Sicilian Channel and resulting morphostructural setting have been analyzed using a large geophysical dataset consisting multichannel seismic profiles, which some them never published, available bathymetric data. This area hosts two regional-scale domains that registered complex pattern deformation occurred since Early Pliocene: (1) Rift Zone (SCRZ), can be divided into western formed by Pantelleria graben (PG) in eastern...
