Sismotettonica della Faglia di Tindari e delle aree adiacenti (Sicilia nord-orientale)

The Tindari Fault System (southern Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy) is a regional structure located at the transition between ongoing contractional and extensional crustal compartments above the western edge of the downgoing Ionian slab. Onshore structural data, an offshore seismic reflection profile, and earthquake data are here analyzed to constrain the present geometry of the Tindary Fault System and its tectonic evolution since Neogene, with particular regard to the present and recent activity.
