Andrea Argnani (ISMAR - Bologna) awarded by the Italian Geological Society

Pisa, september 6-8, 2010. 85° Congress of the Italian Geological Society on the theme: The Appennine within the geology of central Mediterranean. 

Under the motivation:

"The work excels in the new interpretation presented by the author to reconstruct the evolutionary phases of the complex system
Corsica-Northern Apennines, which are still under open debate. The three-dimensional kinematic model, he proposes with a
clear and concise argument, helps a better understanding of the subduction process development between the two plates in
the area."

The Commission:  Giovanni BARROCU (President), Domenico COSENTINO, Angelo PECCERILLO, 
Cesare PEROTTI, Johannes PIGNATTI.
