What is Western Mediterranean Geodynamics Insights about?
This document summarizes seismic tomography results from the BS2000 global mantle model regarding the geodynamics of the Western Mediterranean region. Key findings include: 1) Identification of remnants of the West Alpine-Tethys ocean (Piedmont ocean) in the upper mantle beneath the Alps and northern Apennines. 2) Reconstruction of the surface geometry of the Ligurian ocean from subduction remnants in the upper mantle below the Western Mediterranean. 3) Confirmation of earlier proposals about slab roll
