Dear Colleagues,
We would like to draw your attention to our session at the EGU 2020 general assembly in Vienna (3rd-8th May).
TS7.1 - Apennines tectonics, sedimentation and magmatism from Permian to Present
This session aims to favor a multidisciplinary and integrated approach, improving our capability to analyze the interconnection between structural heritage and the different processes defining the Apennines evolution.
Invited speakers:
Eline Le Breton: "Kinematic reconstructions of the Western Mediterranean area since Triassic time: possible scenarios and their implications for the Apennines", Freie Universität, Berlin
Alessandra Montanini: "Magmatism and mantle evolution in the Apennines: a tale of rifting, oceanization and subduction", University of Parma, Italy
Submit abstracts to https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2020/session/34708 by 15th January 2020, 1300 CET.
Please see below or follow the above indicated link for a full description of the session.
If you have any questions, please contact domenico.liotta@uniba.it and/or giancarlo.molli@unipi.it
Looking forward to seeing you in Vienna,
With best regards,
The Conveners
Domenico Liotta and Giancarlo Molli

TS7.1 - Apennines tectonics, sedimentation and magmatism from Permian to Present
The evolution of the Apennines is framed between the fragmentation of Pangea and the development of the Tyrrhenian Basin, thus carrying the memory from the Permian and Triassic rifting, to the Oligocene-Miocene collision, and finally to the Miocene-Present coexistence between extension and compression, in the western and eastern sector respectively.
In this session, we aim to discuss: (a) deformation and metamorphism developed in the different tectonic environments, from rifting to subduction, exhumation and late-orogenic stages; (b) the sedimentary evolution, from Permian to Present, and its relation with tectonics; (c) the Mesozoic carbonate platform evolution and its role in the Apennines; (d) magmatism in space and time and its connection with the geodynamic evolution, from the mountain chain to the Tyrrhenian Basin; (e) processes forming geological resources, from oil to ore deposits and geothermal fields; (f) recent tectonics, as reconstructed through seismological and paleo-seismological studies; (g) the crustal structure, as derived by geophysical methods and their interpretation.
The final goal is to have a thorough and fruitful discussion through a multidisciplinary and integrated approach, improving our capability to define the interconnection between structural heritage and the different processes defining the Apennines evolution.
