| Sommario/riassunto: | This book offers an in-depth examination of the geodynamics of the Alps, focusing on the processes and structures that have shaped the region's continental lithosphere. Coordinated by Claudio L. Rosenberg and Nicolas Bellahsen, it explores topics such as the Paleozoic evolution, Variscan inheritance, and the architecture of the Alpine Tethys margins. The book aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the geological history and tectonic activities in the Alps, making it a valuable resource for geoscientists, researchers, and students interested in geology and tectonics. |
