We investigated the kinematics of coupled Helminthoid Flysch–Marguareis Unit outcropping in High Tanaro Valley order to constraint tectonic evolution Western Ligurian Alps. Field mapping highlights a pile composed of, from top bottom: Marguareis (Briançonnais Domain); Flysch (Ligurian Domain) and several continental-derived slices (Chambeuil Slices) showing affinity Briançonnais Domain. Each un...

The Makran coast is extremely vulnerable to tsunamis and earthquakes due to the presence of three very active tectonic plates namely, the Arabian, Eurasian and Indian plates. On 28 November 1945 at 21:56 UTC, a massive Makran earthquake generated a destructive tsunami in the Northern Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean. The tsunami was responsible for loss of life and great destruction along the c...

The Makran Coast (Iranian Coastline of the Oman Sea on the Northern Indian Ocean) plays an important role in country’s future navigation and trade due to its accessibility. In 2014, the Iranian Makran coastline was selected by the PMO to be studied as the Phase 6 in the series of Monitoring and Modelling Studies of Iranian Coasts with all disciplines being in investigated including currents. Al...

The Grajcarek Unit of the Pieniny Klippen Belt (PKB), at boundary between Central (Inner) and Outer Carpathians, resulted from convergence ALCAPA (the Alps–Carpathians–Pannonia) block European plate. strongly deformed slices consist Jurassic–Cretaceous sedimentary rocks associated with Late Cretaceous–Middle Palaeocene synorogenic wild-flysch, breccias olistoliths. Maximum burial temperatures d...
