Abstract: | The Venetian Alps are part of the fold and thrust belt of the Southern Alps. The chain is SSE-vergent with a sigma 1 N20°-30°W oriented, and mainly formed during Neogene time. The paper illustrates a few examples of the belt and underlines the influence of the inherited Mesozoic features in controlling the structural evolution of the thrust belt. Faultbend folding and fault-propagation folding are typical deformation mechanisms in the Venetian Alps. The front of the chain is marked by a triangle structure which migrated through time toward the foreland. |
