“…Recently, double subduction-collision systems have received quite a bit of attention, such as the Taiwan accretionary belt (e.g., Chen et al, 2017;Huang et al, 2015;Lee et al, 2015;Lin & Kuo, 2016;Van Avendonk et al, 2016), the Alps/Apennines orogen (e.g., Vignaroli et al, 2008;Zhao et al, 2016), the Western Himalaya collisional zone (e.g., Burg et al, 2006;Hall, 2012), and the Qinling-Dabie orogen (e.g., Wu & Zheng, 2013). Similar to the tectonics of Taiwan, the Alps (Corsica)/Apennines are also in a frame of double opposite dipping subductions including the eastward or southeastward Alps subduction and westward Apennines subduction suggested by geophysical studies (e.g., Giacomuzzi et al, 2011;Kissling et al, 2006;Lippitsch, 2003;Piromallo & Morelli, 2003;Solarino et al, 1996;Zhao et al, 2016;Figure 14).…”
