Physical stratigraphy and facies analysis of an outer carbonate ramp to basinal floor fan turbidite system: the Tertiary "Scaglia Toscana" Fm of the Chianti Mts. (Northern Apennines, Italy)
Geology of the ‘Coltre della Val Marecchia’ (Romagna-Marche Northern Apennines, Italy)
A detailed geological map at 1:50,000 scale of the Marecchia Valley and adjoining areas
(Northern Apennines, NA, Italy) is presented here. The Marecchia Valley represents a
geological ‘unicum’ for the NA and it has been the focus of scientific debate for a long time,
due to the occurrence in the area of the ‘Coltre della Val Marecchia (CVM)’, a complex stack
of allochthonous and semi-allochthonous units emplaced in a foredeep basin during the Late
Miocene to Early Pliocene. In order to clarify the geological evolution for this area, the
lithostratigraphic relationships and the tectonic framework have been studied, allowing
better understanding of the complex relationships between tectonics and sedimentation.
The main result has been a new evolutionary framework for this sector of the orogen during
the Late Miocene-Early Pliocene. Several new findings about the geological-structural setting
and stratigraphy, result from the geological map presented here. These are overall supported
by stratigraphic and tectonic evidence, which suggest time and modes of the CVM
allochthonous emplacement within the Messinian-early Pliocene foredeep successions.
Relationships between the allochthonous and autochthonous formations allowed recognition
of two different bodies in the CVM, gravitationally emplaced following different trajectories
and timing
Ivan Žuvela Šabo and His Etnographic Record from 1892
U ovom tekstu otkriva se identitet autora jednog starijeg etnografskog zapisa nastalog na otoku Korčuli. Riječ je o rukopisu „Narodne pjesme junačke i žetelačke“ iz 1892., a koji se čuva u Arhivu Odsjeka za etnologiju Hrvatske akademije znanosti i umjetnosti u Zagrebu. Iako je u tom rukopisu autor potpisan kao „Ivan Žuvela, pravnik“, dosada ga se nije moglo točnije identificirati, iznesena je kriva pretpostavka, a čak se i spekuliralo da je riječ o pseudonimu. Istraživanjem dostupnih izvora i novinskih zapisa ipak se utvrdilo kako je zaista riječ o Velolučaninu Ivanu Žuveli iz grane Šabo, studentu prava koji je umro u svojoj 23-oj godini života, samo godinu dana po nastanku ovog rukopisa. Uz autora, u tekstu se detaljno progovara o rukopisu i njegovom iznimnom značaju za proučavanje nekadašnje svakodnevice, a posebno žetelačkih običaja na zapadnom dijelu otoka Korčule.This text reveals the identity of the hitherto unknown author one of the oldest known ethnographic record from the island of Korčula. The manuscript titled “Narodne pjesme junačke i žetelačke” (Folk Songs of Heroes and Harvesters) dates back to 1892 and is preserved in the Archive of the Ethnology Division at the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Zagreb. Although the author of the manuscript is signed as “Ivan Žuvela, legal scholar,” his precise identification has remained elusive, with incorrect assumptions and even speculation about a possible pseudonym. Through research of available sources and newspaper records, it has now been conclusively determined that the author is indeed Ivan Žuvela from Vela Luka, a member of the Šabo family, and a law student who passed away at the age of 23, just a year after creating this manuscript. In addition to introducing the author, this text provides a detailed exploration of the manuscript and its exceptional significance for studying the everyday life of the past, particularly the harvesting customs on the western part of the island of Korčula

Neogene post-collisional evolution of the inner Northern Apennines: inferences from the upper Fiora and Albegna valleys, (Mt. Amiata geothermal area, southern Tuscany)
The southern Tuscany represents the internal portion of the
Northern Apennines. Its geological setting is particularly complicated
due to two main tectonic phases: a first compressional syn-collisional
phase (Late Cretaceous-Early Miocene) that led to nappe
building and km-scale tectonic features; a later extensional post-collisional
phase (Early Miocene-Pleistocene) led to uplift and unroofing
of the thickened crust is linked to the anticlockwise Apennine rotation
and Tyrrhenian Sea opening.
The upper valleys of the Fiora and Albegna rivers in southern
Tuscany represent a key area to reconstruct the post-collisional tectonic
and sedimentary evolution of this sector of the Apennine
chain. This area is characterized by a tectonic nappe stack built during
the syn-collisional phase, unconformably overlain by Miocene-
Pliocene depositional units, referable to a few sedimentary cycles.
The sedimentary-tectonic evolution for the study area, as recognizable
by field data, is the result of a sequence of different deformative
and depositional events. The compressive event (Early Miocene) led
to crust thickening and emplacement of the Ligurian units onto the
Tuscan Nappe. Later on, a first extensional event (Early-Middle
Miocene) developed low-angle normal faults. This event was responsible
of a strong tectonic elision and crustal thinning, forming the
«serie ridotta», characterized by a megaboudinage tectonic setting
and developing structural-morphological depressions, probably seat
of shallow-marine deposition. A second extensional event (Late
Miocene) developed west-dipping listric normal faults, increasing
the megaboudinage depressions. In the study area, the activity of
west-dipping normal faults caused the deformation of the tectonic
nappe stack with the development of regions with steep east-dipping
attitude of bedding. In these regions east-dipping normal faults
affected the steep dipping bedding, so to form structural depressions
in which tectonic delaminated slices, usually Ligurian units, were
emplaced. Moreover, such structural depressions represented also
the basins of the Late Miocene continental-marine sedimentation. A
third extensional episode (Pliocene) developed with high-angle normal
faults which dissected all the previous structures. During this
extensional event graben and half-graben basins formed, and the
Early Pliocene marine transgression with filling of deep elongated
basins parallel to the chain, developed
Triple folded surface morphology of Neoproterozoic rocks (Jabal Akhdar Dome, Oman Mountains) – Insights into buttressing effects and regional tectonics
Northern Oman was obducted by allochthonous rocks, including the Semail Ophiolite, during the Cretaceous, which generally hampers field investigations on autochthonous rocks. However, central parts of the Jabal Akhdar Dome provide insights into sub-allochthonous deformation patterns from northern Oman because autochthonous Arabian rocks are exposed. Field survey and satellite image analysis reveal triple-folded autochthonous Neoproterozoic rocks. In the Neoproterozoic succession, carbonates are more resistant to erosion than the under- and overlaying siliciclastics and shape present-day morphology in the superbly exposed surface of the Hat Plateau, where anticlines and synclines coincide with ridges and troughs, respectively.
Previously unrecognized F1 folds are NNE-verging, overturned and tight with amplitudes of 10–100 s of meters, have ESE-oriented fold axes, and display a gently to moderately SSW-dipping penetrative axial-plane cleavage. F1 structures are re-folded by open-tight upright kilometric F2 folds, with NE/NNE-oriented fold axes and a penetrative NE/NNE-striking sub-vertical axial-plane cleavage. A younger ∼WNW-trending broad anticline (F3) exhibits a widely spaced sub-vertical ESE-striking axial-plane cleavage.
The F2 deformation style is heterogeneous. In the West, the NE/ENE-oriented F2 folds are ∼3 km in amplitude and gently plunging. In the East, the NNE-oriented folds are <1 km in amplitude and non-plunging. The change ensues abruptly along a NNE-oriented zone at the western end of the Hat Plateau. The pre-existing NNE-oriented western flank of the Makarem-Mabrouk High/Horst in the subsurface controlled this change, exerting a buttressing effect with less deformation in the East
Towards an Augmented Reality Game for Learning about Ivan Vazov's Literary Works
This paper presents a concept for a serious game based on an augmented reality representation of a mural artwork located in the National Library
“Ivan Vazov” in Plovdiv, Bulgaria. The mural features the renowned Bulgarian author Ivan Vazov in the center, surrounded by characters from his literary works.
By using a head-mounted display in front of the mural, the players would see movement of the characters and will be able to interact with them in a gamified augmented reality environment. The serious game proposed in this paper offers a solution to the engagement of players with literature and textual heritage within a broader cultural context
