The SW Alps result from the inversion of the European continental margin during the oblique convergence between Europe and Adria since the Cretaceous. The orogenic deformation is controlled by two factors: the inherited sedimentary and structural record and the geodynamic interaction between the two plates. In this paper we present a stratigraphic and structural analysis of the external SW Alps (Ventimiglia–Menton...
The Ligurian Alps are the southernmost segment of the Alpine orogenic belt. Their formation is the result of a multistage process that comprises two orogenic cycles: the Variscan and the Alpine one. Since the Late Paleozoic onwards, superposed sedimentary successions deposited in this area, as a response to the changing tectonic setting in the frame of the Western Mediterranean evolution. The transition...
