POST-RIFT EXTENSIONAL TECTONICS AT THE EDGE OF A CARBONATE PLATFORM: INSIGHTS FROM THE MIDDLE JURASSIC-EARLY CRETACEOUS MONTE GIANO STRATIGRAPHIC RECORD (CENTRAL APENNINES, ITALY)

Post-rift extensional tectonics at the edge of a carbonate platform: insights from the Middle Jurassic-Early Cretaceous Monte Giano stratigraphic record (central Apennines, Italy)

A new interpretation of the Middle Jurassic-Early Cretaceous paleogeographic evolution of the NW sector of the Latium-Abruzzi carbonate platform facing the Umbria-Marche Basin is proposed, based on Monte Giano area (central Apennines, Italy).During Late Triassic-early Bajocian time, the area was characterized by shallow water sedimentation.Inner an
