Abstract The complex development of the northern Crotone Basin, a forearc basin Calabrian Arc (Southern Italy), has been documented by sedimentological, stratigraphic and structural analyses. This Mediterranean‐type fault bounded consists small depocentres commonly characterized mix facies that grades from continental to shallow marine. lower Pliocene infill Basin offshore marls (Cavalieri Marl) grade upwards into shallow‐marine succession up 850 m thick (Zinga Formation). is subdivided...
This work addresses the tectonic significance of a NW–SE-trending strike-slip fault zone in Calabrian Arc southern Italy, Rossano–San Nicola Fault Zone (RSFZ). High-quality seismic reflection and 1D forward models exploration boreholes pseudo-wells show that RSFZ experienced multiple Miocene phases contractional/transpressional tectonics. These were followed by crustal extension during Pliocene, which occurred association with oceanization Tyrrhenian Sea, Apennine orogenesis, collision...
The integration of high-resolution seismic profiles, core data and radiocarbon plus U-Th datings, allows to document the late Quaternary succession Trieste Gulf, which represents easternmost part northern Adriatic Sea. This consists an alternation shallow-marine continental deposits organized compose four transgressive-regressive sequences down ca. 90 m below present sea level. terminate landwards against a stepped surface bounding Eocene Flysch produced by alternating episodes wave erosion...
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....
Abstract The Cutro Terrace is a mixed marine to continental terrace, where deposits up 15 m thick discontinuously crop out in an area extending for ca 360 km 2 near Crotone (southern Italy). terrace represents the oldest and highest of area, it has been ascribed isotope stage 7 ( 200 kyr bp ). Detailed facies sequence‐stratigraphic analyses allow recognition suite depositional environments ranging from middle shelf fluvial, two stacked transgressive–regressive cycles (Cutro 1 2) bounded by...
