The southern part of Tyrrhenian back-arc basin (NW Sicily), formed due to the rifting and spreading processes in setting, is currently undergoing contractional tectonics. analysis seismic reflection profiles integrated with bathymetry, magnetic data seismicity allowed us map a widespread tectonics structures, such as positive flower anticlines inverted normal faults, which deform sedimentary se...

Subsurface geological cross sections of 0 200 m depth were constructed using a dense drilling database of the Osaka Plain in the intra-arc Osaka Basin of the Japan island arc, an active plate margin. The cross sections revealed the subsurface geological structures and the geometry of folding and faulting in the basin. The comparison between the constructed subsurface cross sections and the seis...
