Architecture and kinematics of forearc basins and intra-caldera resurgences: new insight from the Paola Basin (western offshore Calabria region) and …

This thesis deals with the patterns of tectonic deformation at different time and spatial scales ranging from tens to millions of years and from one to tens of kilometers, respectively. The study areas are the Campi Flegrei (Campania region, Italy) and Paola Basin (western offshore Calabria region, Italy). The Campi Flegrei and its offshore prolongation, the Pozzuoli Bay, are a laboratory for investigating volcano-tectonic deformations at 1yr-1kyr timescale and 1km spatial scale related to the dynamics of the Neapolitan Yellow Tuff (NYT) caldera and its intra-caldera resurgence. Resurgence is the late stage, long-term uplift of a collapse caldera floor to form a dome-like structure. The com…
