Un escarpement sous-marin permanent du Lias à l'Eocène, dans la dorsale calcaire Péloritaine (Sicile, Italie)
1999
The schistosity of the Palaeozoic basement of the Capo San Andrea unit (Peloritan Dorsale) is cut by Liassic to Eocene neptunian dykes which developed along a pelagic fault scarp exposed on the sea bottom for 140 My. The Mesozoic structures determined the location of the Alpine deformation.
Integrated stratigraphy of the potential candidate Oxfordian GSSP at Thuoux and Saint-Pierre d'Argençon (France).
2013
5 pages; International audience; The Thuoux and Saint-Pierre d'Argençon sections (Subalpine Basin, southeastern France) are proposed as a potential GSSP candidate for the Callovian-Oxfordian boundary. Several aspects of stratigraphy that have recently been applied in the two selected sections are discussed, including ammonite and nannofossil biostratigraphy, palynology, physical stratigraphy, and cyclostratigraphy.
La " Dalle à ammonites de Digne " (Réserve Naturelle Géologique de Haute-Provence, France). Étude d'un site fossilifère d'importance patrimoniale.
2011
33 pages; International audience; La " Dalle à ammonites de Digne " est une localité fossilifère très spectaculaire, d'importance tant scientifique que patrimoniale. Ce site exceptionnel est protégé par la Réserve Naturelle Géologique de Haute-Provence (RNGHP). La dalle d'environ 320 m2, qui constitue l'élément essentiel du site, porte plus de 1550 céphalopodes (surtout des ammonites, mais aussi quelques nautiles) et une faune benthique discrète, mais assez diversifiée, principalement constituée de bivalves épibenthiques. La faune d'ammonites, très évidente et spectaculaire, est assez monotone. Elle comprend de très nombreux Arietitidae (Coroniceras) et quelques Schlotheimiidae (Angulaticer…
The Jura glaciers: palaeogeography in the Würmian circum-Alpine zone
2008
Since the first studies on the glacial formations of the Jura mountains there have been two concepts concerning type of glaciation and ice origin during the Wurmian glaciation. Some authors believed that the Jura was totally inundated by ice of Alpine origin, while others believed that the Jura had its own glaciers, originating from a single ice-cap. Several recent studies on both the NW and SE slopes of the range define the problem more accurately. This paper presents a synthesis of the new results from mapping the moraine systems and studying the stratigraphic relationships between Alpine and Jura tills. It is concluded that even the highest level of Alpine glaciers could not lead to a pe…
Distribution, floristic structure and habitat requirements of the riparian forest community Populetum talassicae ass. nova in the Central Pamir-Alai …
2013
This paper discusses the floristic structure, distribution and habitat requirements of a new forest syntaxon, <em>Populetum talassicae </em>ass. nova. The potential range of the <em>Populetum talassicae </em>association comprises the central Pamir-Alai and Tian-Shan Mountains in Middle Asia. The biotope of this community comprises high mountain river valleys and shore zones of mountain lakes situ- ated at elevations between 2200 and 2750 m. Phytocoenoses of the <em>Populetum talassicae </em>association are characterized by a clear predominance in the tree layer of a characteristic species of the association ‒ <em>Populus talassica</em>. Shrubs…
How to resist subduction: evidence for large-scale out-of-sequence thrusting during Eocene collision in western Turkey
2001
Significant along-strike variations have locked large parts of the Alpine subduction complex in the Eastern Mediterranean in the Eocene, and defined the end of high-pressure accretion in western Turkey. Structural analysis reveals that the Anatolide belt in western Turkey formed under greenschist facies metamorphic conditions in the Eocene when a high-pressure metamorphic fragment of the Adriatic plate (the Cycladic blueschist unit) was thrust onto the imbricated mid-crustal units of the Anatolian microcontinent (the Menderes nappes). The contact between the Cycladic blueschist unit and the Menderes nappes, the Cyclades–Menderes thrust, represents an out-of-sequence ramp which cuts up-sect…
Horizontal contraction or horizontal extension? Heterogeneous Late Eocene and early Oligocene general shearing during blueschist and greenschist faci…
1995
Mylonitic structures related to two orogenic events are described from the upper and lower contacts of the Combin zone and the immediately overlying upper Austroalpine Dent Blanche nappe/Mont Mary klippe and the directly underlying lower Austroalpine Etirol-Levaz slice. The first event, Late Eocene in age, commenced during blueschist facies P-T conditions, but pre-dated the peak of subsequent greenschist facies overprint. The second event, Early Oligocene in age, took place during retrograde greenschist facies conditions. Most sense of shear indicators associated with the retrograde mylonites indicate top SE shearing, but subordinate top NW displacing shear sense indicators have also been m…
A case of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy without ventricular arrhythmias
2014
Abstract We submit a case report of a 21-year-old man admitted to our emergency room for acute right heart failure. Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) was diagnosed but ventricular arrhythmias have never been detected. On the basis of the diagnosis of ARVC and for the frequent episodes of symptomatic bradycardia, the patient underwent implantation of a biventricular defibrillator (CRT-D). In ARVC symptoms usually appear between the ages of 30–50. Especially in young patients the most common clinical presentation of ARVC are palpitations and syncope due to ventricular tachycardia with left bundle branch morphology. In cases of older patients in whom the disease has been d…
