The area bounded by the Alpine chain to the North and Mediterranean/Ionian sea to the South is characterized by a wide range of tectonic phenomena, such as the identation of the Adria block into the Eastern Alp, lateral extrusion of the Tauern Window, unbending of the Adriatic lithosphere, opening of the Thyrrenian sea and subduction of the Ionian lithosphere beneath the Calabrian arc. This ongoing tectonics is accompanied by a relatively intense volcanism and seismicity, which justify the expectation of small but measurable horizontal and vertical displacements.
