    Description: The International Bathymetric Chart of the Southern Ocean Version 2 (IBCSO v2) is a digital bathymetric model (DBM) for the area south of 50° S with special emphasis on the bathymetry of the Southern Ocean. IBCSO v2 has a resolution of 500 m × 500 m in a Polar Stereographic projection (EPSG: 9354). The total data coverage of the seafloor is 23.79% with a multibeam-only data coverage of 22.32%. The remaining 1.47% include singlebeam and other data. IBCSO v2 is the most authoritative seafloor map of the area south of 50°S. IBCSO is a regional mapping project of the General Bathymetric Chart of the Ocean (GEBCO) supported by the Nippon Foundation – GEBCO Seabed 2030 Project. GEBCO is a project under the auspices of the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) and the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) with the goal to produce the authoritative map of the world's oceans. The IBCSO Project is also an integral part of the Antarctic research community and an expert group of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR).

    Description: The response of continental forelands to subduction and oblique collision is a widely investigated topic in geodynamics. The deformation occurring within a foreland shared by two opposite-verging chains, however, is not very common and poorly understood. The Apulia block, at the southern end of the Adria microplate, Central Mediterranean, represents one of these latter cases, being the common foreland of the Dinarides and Apennines orogens. In its southern part, the Apulian foreland has preserved the Mesozoic paleomargin at the transition with the old oceanic Ionian crust that conversely underwent subduction under the Calabrian and Hellenic arcs. For these reasons, Apulia represents an interesting and rare case of study where double orogens and subduction have interacted with the foreland block. As described by various authors, the almost symmetrical bending of the Apulia foreland due the opposite load of the adjacent chains, produced a system of NW-SE trending normal faults. The precise age and the role of these faults have not been yet determined due to the lack of available information. In this contribution we investigated the internal deformation of the Apulia foreland using geophysical data at various resolutions and scales over a wide area. We used multichannel seismic profiles, part of which are provided in the collaborative framework between Spectrum Geo and INGV, recorded up to 12 s and provide a consistent imaging of the upper crustal setting of the Apulia foreland. High-resolution multichannel seismic profiles, multibeam high-resolution bathymetry and CHIRP profiles recently acquired by R/V OGS Explora provide constraints on the recent activity of the major fault systems identified. The analysis of this multiscale dataset highlights the presence and the role of a major NW-SE oriented active fault system which obliquely cuts the Apulia foreland. The presence of this fault system has already been hypothesized based on sparse seismic profiles, but its lateral continuity has never been documented. From the seismic viewpoint, this structure lies in a relatively silent area. Nonetheless, it hosts the 1743 Southern Apulia Mw 6.8 earthquake which widely damaged the Salento (S-Italy) and Ionian Islands (Greece) regions and whose source is still a matter of debate. This new geophysical dataset allowed us to reconstruct the 3D geometry of this fault system, whose architecture suggests a transtensive kinematics, and to analyse the syn-tectonic basins associated with the major faults which recorded the Late Quaternary to Holocene deformation. This work is being developed in the frame of the project “FASTMIT”, funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research.

    Description: The response of continental forelands to subduction and collision is a widely investigated topic in geodynamics. The deformation occurring within a foreland shared by two opposite‐verging chains, however, is uncommon and poorly understood. The Apulia Swell in the southern end of the Adria microplate (Africa‐Europe plate boundary, central Mediterranean Sea) represents one of these cases, as it is the common foreland of the SW verging Albanides‐Hellenides and the NE verging Southern Apennines merging into the SSE verging Calabrian Arc. We investigated the internal deformation of the Apulia Swell using multiscale geophysical data: multichannel seismic profiles recording up to 12‐s two‐way time (TWT) for a consistent image of the upper crust; high‐resolution multichannel seismic profiles, high‐resolution multibeam bathymetry, and CHIRP profiles acquired by R/V OGS Explora to constrain the Quaternary geological record. The results of our analyses characterize the geometry of the South Apulia Fault System (SAFS), a 100‐km‐long and 12‐km‐wide structure attesting an extensional (and possibly transtensional) response of the foreland to the two contractional fronts. The SAFS consists of two NW‐SE right‐stepping master faults and several secondary structures. The SAFS activity spans from the Early Pleistocene through the Holocene, as testified by the bathymetric and high‐resolution seismic data, with long‐term slip rates in the range of 0.2–0.4 mm/yr. Considering the position within an area with few or none other active faults in the surroundings, the dimension, and the activity rates, the SAFS can be a candidate causative fault of the 20 February 1743, M 6.7, earthquake.
