Rheological behaviour in continental and oceanic subduction: inferences for the seismotectonics of the Aegean Region

Abstract: We reconstructed several rheological transects across the Aegean Region, comparing the behaviour in collisional versus subducting settings. We interpolated closely spaced 1D strength envelopes, realized through a dedicated MATLAB script, for determining the shallow lithospheric distribution of brittle and ductile layers. We mainly used literature data and geodynamic considerations to fix the parameters for the rheological modelling and took particular care in reproducing reliable thermal models. The results of… Show more

“…noa.gr/) whose causative fault is still under investigation and should correspond to the Durresi thrust (ALCS315; Figure 2). In central Albania, in a more internal sector of the orogen, the crustal rheological conditions allow the formation of a sufficiently thick, weak, and ductile layer between the upper and lower plates (Maggini and Caputo, 2020). Here, the measured GNSS velocities are more consistent with the overall kinematics of this sector of the southern Balkan peninsula, reflecting a nearly south-southwest direction of motion (GNSS stations MUSH, LIXH, DAMG, and M124 in Figure 2).…”
