Description :
The Abruzzi Pliocene basin covers the outer part of the present central Apennines chain-foredeep-foreland system and records the last deformation phases associated with the migration of the Apenninic orogen. This basin is divided into four main sector characterized by successions with different stratigraphic evolution. This research shows the migrating behaviour of major and minor stratigraphic-structural elements ; that is realized through the progressive involvement of different sectors during the evolution and is locally controlled by the presence of pre-existing paleogeographic elements and by the transversal and longitudinal propagation of thrusts. - (NF)
