In this study, we present the results of an integrated subsurface structural-geological characterization and three-dimensional modelling within the 1:50 000 CARG 379-Capracotta geological sheet. The studied area is located at the transition zone between the Central and the Southern Apennines fold-and-thrust belt. This sector of the Apennines is characterized by the complex superposition of different paleogeographic domains that developed during the Mesozoic along the passive southern margin of Adria. Given the structural complexity, different and strongly contrasting interpretations on the origin of the various stacked units and tectonic style (thin-skinned vs wrench tectonics vs combined thin-/thick-skinned) were proposed by many authors over time.

Abstract
In this study, we present the results of an integrated subsurface structural-geological characterization and three-dimensional modelling within the 1:50 000 CARG 379-Capracotta geological sheet. The studied area is located at the transition zone between the Central and the Southern Apennines fold-and-thrust belt. This sector of the Apennines is characterized by the complex superposition of different paleogeographic domains that developed during the Mesozoic along the passive southern margin of Adria. Given the structural complexity, different and strongly contrasting interpretations on the origin of the various stacked units and tectonic style (thin-skinned vs wrench tectonics vs combined thin-/thick-skinned) were proposed by many authors over time.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
