Many of these characteristics appear to be time-integrated, showing a decreasing subduction signature with time. In contrast to previous models, which suggest southward-dipping subduction of European lithosphere beneath the Alcapa microplate (along the Western Carpathians) is responsible for the chemical characteristics seen in middle Miocene volcanics, we propose that source enrichment occurred via the subduction of either the Budva-Pindos or Vardar Oceans. Recent seismic studies have revealed that the proposed southward-dipping subduction was not developed beneath the entire Western Carpathians or, even if it had, was overprinted by the collision of the European plate and the Alcapa unit at 16 Ma. This subduction is thought to have started 30 Ma ago, therefore the time between the onset of subduction and collision cannot account for extensive source enrichment in the overlying mantle wedge. It is also pertinent to note that the middle Miocene igneous rocks of the MHZ in their reconstructed positions are not parallel to the supposed suture expected for subduction-related arc volcanoes. Our review suggests an alternative hypothesis, whereby source enrichment is related to the subduction of either the Budva-Pindos or Vardar Ocean during the Mesozoic-Paleogene. In this model the Alcapa microplate was transferred to its present tectonic position via extrusion and rotations. Geophysical modeling and mantle xenoliths provide evidence that this process occurred at the scale of the lithospheric mantle, indicating that the subduction-modified lithospheric mantle was coupled to the crust. Melting in the lithospheric mantle of the Alcapa unit was triggered by the extension during the formation of the Pannonian Basin. The preserved subduction-related geochemical character of volcanics in intra-plate settings that are otherwise directly unaffected by subduction, can be attributed to tectonic transport of metasomatised mantle from a previous subduction-affected setting. This model provides an alternative approach to understanding the geochemical complexity seen among intra-plate calc-alkaline volcanics, where chemical characteristics can be explained without the involvement of plumes.

We attempt to reveal the geodynamic link between Paleogene-early Miocene igneous rocks of the Mid-Hungarian zone and those of the Alps and Dinarides. Our summary suggests that Paleogene-early Miocene igneous rocks of all these areas were formed along a single, subduction-related magmatic arc. The study also highlights orthopyroxene-rich websterite mantle xenoliths from west Hungary and east Serbia that were formed in the vicinity of a subducted slab. We discuss the location and polarity of all potential subduction zones of the area that may account for the igneous rocks and orthopyroxene-rich mantle rocks. However, results of seismic tomography on subducted slabs beneath the studied area combined with geological data demonstrate that igneous rocks and mantle rocks cannot be explained by the same subduction process. We propose that the Paleogene-early Miocene arc was mainly generated by the Budva-Pindos subduction zone, subordinately by Penninic subduction, whereas mantle rocks were possibly formed in the vicinity of the older Vardar subduction zone. Continental blocks possibly moved together with their mantle lithosphere.

Analysis of industrial seismic lines shows that the pre-Late Miocene substratum is deformed by several thrust faults and a transpressive flower structure. Basement is composed of slices of various Palaeo-Mesozoic rocks, overlain by sometimes preserved Paleogene, thick Early Miocene deposits. Middle Miocene, partly overlying a post-thrusting unconformity, partly affected by the thrusts, is also present. Late Miocene thick basin-fill forms onlapping strata above a gentle paleo-topography, and it is also folded into broad anticlines and synclines. These folds are thought to be born of blind fault reactivation of older thrusts. Topography follows the reactivated fold pattern, especially in the central-western part of the study area. The map pattern of basement structures shows an eastern area, where NE-SW striking thrusts, folds and steep normal faults dominate, and a western one, where E-W striking thrusts and folds dominate. Folds in Late Neogene are also parallel to these directions. A NE-SW striking linear normal fault and associated N-S faults cut the highest reflectors. The NE-SW fault is probably a left-lateral master fault acting during-after Late Miocene. Gravity anomaly and Pleistocene surface uplift maps show a very good correlation to the mapped structures. All these observations suggest that the main Early Miocene shortening was renewed during the Middle and Late Miocene, and may still persist. Two types of deformational pattern may explain the structural and topographic features. A NW-SE shortening creates right-lateral slip along E-W faults, and overthrusts on NE-SW striking ones. Another, NNE-SSW shortening creates thrusting and uplift along E-W striking faults and transtensive left-lateral slip along NE-SW striking ones. Traces of both deformation patterns can be found in Quaternary exposures and they seem to be consistent with the present day stress orientations of the Pannonian Basin, too. The alternation of stress fields and multiple reactivation of the older fault sets is thought to be caused by the northwards translation and counter-clockwise rotation of Adria and the continental extrusion generated by this convergence.

Typical structures are folds, blind reverse faults, and transpressional strike-slip faults, although normal or oblique-normal faults are also present.

These terranes are composed of different Mesozoic continental and oceanic fragments that were each assembled during a complex Late Jurassic-Cretaceous Palaeogene history. Palaeomagnetic and tectonic data suggest that the Carpathians are built up by two major oroclinal bends. The Alcapa bend has the Meliata oceanic unit, correlated with the Dinaric Vardar ophiolite, in its core. It is composed of the Western Carpathians, Eastern Alps and Southern Alcapa units (Transdanubian Range, Bukk). This terrane finds its continuation in the High Karst margin of the Dinarides. Further elements of the Alcapa terrane are thought to be derived from collided microcontinents: Czorsztyn in the N and a carbonate unit (Tisza?) in the SE. The Tisza-Dacia bend has the Vardar oceanic unit in its core. It is composed of the Bihor and Getic microcontinents. This terrane finds its continuation in the Serbo-Macedonian Massif of the Balkans. The Bihor-Getic microcontinent originally laid east of the Western Carpathians and filled the present Carpathian embayment in the Late Palaeozoic-Early Mesozoic. The Vardar ocean occupied an intermediate position between the Western Carpathian-Austroalpine-Transdanubian-High Karst margin and the Bihor-Getic-Serbo-Macedonian microcontinent. The Vardar and Pindos oceans were opened in the heart of the Mediterranean-Adriatic microcontinent in the Late Permian-Middle Triassic. Vardar subducted by the end of Jurassic, causing the Bihor-Getic-Serbo-Macedonian microcontinent to collide with the internal Dinaric-Western Carpathian margin. An external Penninic-Vahic ocean tract began opening in the Early Jurassic, separating the Austroalpine-Western Carpathian microcontinent (and its fauna) from the European shelf. Further east, the Severin-Ceahlau-Magura also began opening in the Early Jurassic, but final separation of the Bihor-Getic ribbon (and its fauna) from the European shelf did not take place until the late Middle Jurassic. The Alcapa and the Tisza-Dacia were bending during the Albian-Maastrichtian. The two oroclinal bends were finally opposed and pushed into the gates of the Carpathian embayment during the Palaeogene and Neogene. At that time, the main NS shortening in distant Alpine and Hellenic sectors was linked by a broader right-lateral shear zone along the former Vardar suture. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V.

First, Early Miocene extension was possibly characterised by ENE directed extension. It was partly synchronous with NW-SE shortening. Second, Middle Miocene extension was possibly characterised by NW-SE to WNW-ESE directed extension. Again, this event was followed by a new generation of thrusts related to end-Sarmatian shortening. The last, Late Miocene E-W to WNW-ESE directed extension was followed by a final shortening that created major, map-scale folds, basement pop-ups and inverted former basins. Geometry, onlap and thickness patterns of the youngest syn-tectonic basin fill indicate that this last, N-S to NW-SE directed shortening started in Late Pontian and continued up to the present time. When taking into account the wider surrounding area, it seems that the structures related to this latest shortening are arranged in often perpendicular directions, centred at the eastern end of the Periadriatic lineament.

The deep subbasins of the lake formed during the transgressive interval, in more basinward locations than the deep basins of the preceding Sarmatian age.

Although this tectonic line was known from borehole records, it has not been described in seismic sections. The study presents interpreted seismic lines crossing the supposed trace of the Mid-Hungarian line. These seismic sections show north-dipping normal faults and thrust faults as well as cross-cutting young strike-slip faults. A complex tectonic history is deduced, including intra-Oligocene-Early Miocene thrusting, Middle Miocene extension, local Late Miocene inversion and Late Miocene-Pliocene normal faulting and left-lateral wrenching. In the light of our seismic study we think that the best candidate for the Mid-Hungarian line is a north-dipping detachment fault beneath large masses of Neogene volcanics. The auxiliary structures to the north seen on seismic sections suggest that it moved as a south-vergent thrust fault during the Palaeogene-Early Miocene which later was reactivated as a set of normal faults. The northern Alcapa unit overrode the southern Tisza-Dacia unit along this fault zone. The same relative positions are observed in the northern termination of the line. Other structures along the supposed trace of the line are north-dipping normal-or strike-slip faults which frequently were reactivated as smaller thrust faults during the late Neogene. Palaeogene-Early Miocene thrusting along the line might be the result of the opposite Tertiary rotations of the two major units, as suggested by palaeomagnetic measurements and earlier models.

To explain this setting, based on various concepts, a number of models have been proposed in the last decade. Most of them agree in an eastward escape of the ''North Pannonian terrane'' from the Alpine domain towards the Pannonian during the Palaeogene-Early Miocene period. In the present paper a reconstruction of the pre-escape setting of the displaced terranes is presented based on facies zones in selected time-slices from the Late Permian to the Late Triassic. According to our reconstruction the Inner West Carpathian units were located east of the Austroalpine units forming the northern shelf of the ''Euhallstatt''-Meliatic basin of the Vardar oceanic branch. The Drauzug should have been located in a position much more external than its present-day setting. The Transdanubian Range was situated in the northern neighbourhood of the Southern Alps, whereas the Bukk may have been located adjacent to the NW Dinarides. The Mid-Transdanubian zone is a major shear-zone containing elements of the Julian Alps and Sava folds nappe system and the Inner Dinaric ophiolitic melange.

Refering to the non-continous core material this sequence is built up by rhythmic, turbidite-dominated sandstones and shales. Earlier, the flysch series was thought to have been continuously deposited during the Cretaceous and the Paleogene. The detailed study of the available drilling cores proved that only a few Late Cretaceous and Paleogene nannoplankton zones are present in the sequence and there is no positive evidence for the others. Evidence was found for the presence of Campanian-early Maastrichtian, latest Paleocene-Early Eocene, Middle Eocene (Bartonian) and early Priabonian, as well as for most Oligocene nannoplankton zones. The Szolnok unit is thrust and folded into imbricated structures. Micropaleontological investigations suggest evidence for post-Oligocene compressional deformation. This non-continuous stratigraphic built up of the Szolnok sedimentary sequence suggests that it can be correlated with some of the Central (''Inner'') Carpathian flysches and strata correlation with the Outer Carpathian flysch units can be excluded.

The early Miocene basin evolution is best understood in terms of ''molasse'' sedimentation in an overfilled flexural basin. During this time the gradual cessation of thrusting in the adjacent West Carpathian thrust-fold belt resulted in its uplift and subaerial exposure. Significant amounts of sediment were delivered to the flexural basin filling it up to sea level. During the late-stage uplift of the flexural basin a shallow-marine depositional environment developed, as a result of isostatic rebound, and signals of third-order eustatic sea-level changes can be revealed. Sedimentological studies of outcrops of the Lower Miocene succession proved marked changes in facies. Along the gently dipping distal (southeastern) flank of the basin a sudden inception of shallow-marine coarse clastics on top of siltstones, deposited in significantly deeper water, may have been the result of a third-order eustatic sea-level fall shortly before the Burdigalian (at the boundary of the NN1/NN2 nannofossil zones). During the resulting lowstand, various tide-dominated facies aggraded, which were subsequently flooded by the ''Burdigalian sea-level rise''. The highstand is represented by upwards shallowing progradational units due to accelerating sedimentation and/or tectonic uplift. The typically elongated and narrow flexural basin, characterized by small water depth, had dimensions which were particularly suitable for the amplification of tidal motions. This resulted in the deposition of tide-influenced sandy sediments. In contrast to examples where the evolution of a strong tidal influence is related to transgressions, here such conditions developed following a drop of sea level.}, keywords = {MODEL; SWITZERLAND; molasse; TIDE}, year = {1993}, eissn = {1879-3266}, pages = {485-502}, orcid-numbers = {Sztanó, Orsolya/0000-0003-0786-3653} } @article{MTMT:22049448, title = {Paleogene retroarc flexural basin beneath the Neogene Pannonian Basin: A geodynamic model}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/22049448}, author = {Tari, Gábor and Báldi, T and Báldi-Beke, M}, doi = {10.1016/0040-1951(93)90131-3}, journal-iso = {TECTONOPHYSICS}, journal = {TECTONOPHYSICS}, volume = {226}, unique-id = {22049448}, issn = {0040-1951}, year = {1993}, eissn = {1879-3266}, pages = {433-455} } @article{MTMT:21017, title = {Jurassic microplate movements and brachiopod migrations in the western part of the Tethys}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/21017}, author = {Vörös, Attila}, doi = {10.1016/0031-0182(93)90037-J}, journal-iso = {PALAEOGEOGR PALAEOCL}, journal = {PALAEOGEOGRAPHY PALAEOCLIMATOLOGY PALAEOECOLOGY}, volume = {100}, unique-id = {21017}, issn = {0031-0182}, abstract = {The paleobiogeography of the Jurassic brachiopods of the Alpine-Carpathian region and adjacent areas is discussed on the basis of the distribution of ''distinctive taxa''. The Jurassic microplates of the western part of Tethys and the present-day ''terranes'' of the Alpine-Carpathian region are outlined and their relationships are discussed. The migration possibilities of the brachiopods in the Jurassic Tethys were controlled mainly by plate/microplate movements and by changes in the oceanic current system. The Mediterranean microcontinent, isolated from the European and African shelves by oceanic/deep-sea belts, was the homeland of the Mediterranean brachiopod province. In the course of the Jurassic, the Mediterranean microcontinent moved, as part of the African plate, away from Europe, the widening Alboran-Ligurian-Penninic oceanic belt became a barrier preventing migration of brachiopods. By the end of the Middle Jurassic the Tisza microplate detached from Europe and formed a ''stepping stone'' for brachiopod dispersal. At about the same time, the ''Hesperian Strait'' opened between the basins of the Tethys and the Central Atlantic. The opening of this strait resulted in a reorganization of the Tethyan current system. The westward flowing equatorial currents which made a turn in the western corner of Tethys in the first half of the Mesozoic, now ran to the west through the Hesperian Strait via the Central Atlantic to the Pacific. This change produced a new pattern in brachiopod distribution: the Mediterranean fauna successfully invaded the European shelf, at the same time the Mediterranean province became impoverished.}, year = {1993}, eissn = {1872-616X}, pages = {125-145} } @article{MTMT:1255443, title = {TERTIARY EVOLUTION OF THE INTRA-CARPATHIAN AREA - A MODEL}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/1255443}, author = {CSONTOS, L and Nagymarosy, András and Horváth, Ferenc and KOVAC, M}, doi = {10.1016/0040-1951(92)90346-8}, journal-iso = {TECTONOPHYSICS}, journal = {TECTONOPHYSICS}, volume = {208}, unique-id = {1255443}, issn = {0040-1951}, abstract = {The Outer Carpathian flysch nappes encircle an Intra-Carpathian domain which can be divided into two megatectonic units (North Pannonian and Tisza) mostly on the basis of contrasting Mesozoic and Palaeogene facies development. We see two major kinematic problems to be solved: (1) The present distribution of the Mesozoic and Palaeogene facies is mosaic-like, and some belts form exotic bodies within realms of Austroalpine affinity. (2) Late Eocene palinspastic reconstruction of the Outer Carpathian flysch nappes suggest, that the entire Intra-Carpathian area must have been located several hundreds of kilometres to the south and to the west of its present position. Neogene extension can account for shortening in the external Carpathian nappes, but is unable to explain Mesozoic facies anomalies and offsets of Palaeogene formations. We suggest that evolution of the Intra-Carpathian area involved first Late Palaeogene-Early Miocene juxtaposition of the North-Pannonian and Tisza megatectonic units, accompanied by the closure of the external Carpathian flysch troughs; thereafter extension of this amalgamated unit occurred, which was compensated by thrusting of flysch nappes onto the European foreland and formation of molasse foredeeps. Eastward escape of the North-Pannonian unit from the Alpine collisional belt involved left lateral shear along the Pieniny Klippen belt and right lateral shear along the Mid-Hungarian zone. Parts of the Late Palaeogene basin and an Early Miocene volcanic edifice were dissected, offset and elongated by several 100 kms. The driving mechanism of the eastward escape of the Intra-Carpathian area can be related to the collision of Apulia and Europe and the subduction of the external Carpathian crust under the Pannonian units. The escape ceased gradually in the Early Miocene, when oblique collision between the North-Pannonian unit and European continent occurred. Neogene extension of the Pannonian region was an areal deformation. The extension at locally variable rate resulted in the break-up of the heterogenous floor of the Neogene basin. The driving mechanism of basin extension and contemporaneous compressional deformation of the external Carpathians is thought to be related to ongoing subduction, involving the marginal part of the attenuated European continental crust.

Gravitational collapse of the Intra-Carpathian domain, combined with subduction zone roll-back is thought to be the driving mechanism of the Neogene back-arc extension. The very heterogeneously distributed extension is accommodated by transfer faults, which bound regions characterized by different polarity, direction, or amount of extension. In cross section these transfer faults are characterized by flower structures, typical for strike-slip faults. Seismic stratigraphic interpretations indicate that the non-marine post-rift sedimentary fill of the Pannonian Basin can be described in terms of sequence stratigraphy.
