Abstract

The Rossano and Crotone basins in North Calabria represent key areas for the study of the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC) in the central Mediterranean. The integrated analysis of the outcropping successions coupled with well-borehole stratigraphies and seismic profiles permitted the stratigraphic and paleogeographic reconstruction of the MSC as follows:
