Figure 4

Uninterpreted (a) and interpreted (b) L_02 seismic reflection line, acquired on the distal part of Timpe Plateau (see Fig. 1 for location). The push-up is well imaged and characterized by imbricated thrusts merging into Aci Trezza Lineament (ATL). Faulting style affecting the Plio-Quaternary succession locally differs from that of the underlying substratum (Inset A). Acireale Lineament (AL) bounds the push-up to the north and locally shows evidence of positive tectonic inversion (inset B). Plio-Quaternary volcanic deposits and magmatic intrusions were detected as well (orange areas and arrows, respectively).
