The tectonic evolution of the central Mediterranean region has been traced through a quantitative kinematic model, based on: a) A new Pangaea fit for the late Ladinian (230 Ma), together with a plate motions model of the break-up of this supercontinent from the middle Triassic to Chron M25 (Schettino and Turco, in preparation); b) A recent kinematic model for the evolution of the Western Mediterranean region during the late Oligocene to early Miocene (33 Ma-19 Ma) interval (Schettino and Turco, 2006); c) A new set of tectonic reconstructions for the opening of the Tyrrhenian basin (Turco and Schettino, in press).
