The northern Apennines as a collisional orogen

Puntos clave

• This research aims to investigate the geological processes associated with collisional orogens in the northern Apennines through the study of turbidity currents.
• Examined sedimentological records from the Pliocene age in the Cellino Basin, Central Italy.
• Analyzed turbidity currents to understand their role in shaping the geological features of the foredeep.
• Identified significant evidence of turbidity currents during the Pliocene in the Cellino Basin.
• Reported insights into the dynamics of collisional orogens based on sedimentary features observed.
