Campi Flegrei and SommaeVesuvius are active volcanic districts of the Campania coastal zone located along the Eastern Tyrrhenian Margin and among the best-known volcanic areas of the Mediterranean Region. The onset of Campania volcanism was associated with displacement on transtensive fault systems (Malinverno and Ryan, 1986; Lavecchia, 1988; Patacca and Scandone, 2007) and low-angle normal fault systems (Mariani and Prato, 1988; Ferranti et al., 1996) that accompanied the anticlockwise rotation of the Apennine belt and the stretching of the lithosphere at the boundary between the Tyrrhenian Basin and the Campania continental margin during the Plio-Quaternary (Fig. 16.1)

Abstract
Campi Flegrei and SommaeVesuvius are active volcanic districts of the Campania coastal zone located along the Eastern Tyrrhenian Margin and among the best-known volcanic areas of the Mediterranean Region. The onset of Campania volcanism was associated with displacement on transtensive fault systems (Malinverno and Ryan, 1986; Lavecchia, 1988; Patacca and Scandone, 2007) and low-angle normal fault systems (Mariani and Prato, 1988; Ferranti et al., 1996) that accompanied the anticlockwise rotation of the Apennine belt and the stretching of the lithosphere at the boundary between the Tyrrhenian Basin and the Campania continental margin during the Plio-Quaternary (Fig. 16.1)I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
