AbstractThe author1 discusses some questions on the transformation of Roman identity in the south-eastern Alps and the neighbouring regions, which in late Antiquity represented an area of constant transition. How people dealt with quickly changing powers is an important point of view in the identity discourse, not so much the identity of an individual, but of a population. In the discussed territory it seems Roman identity, such as it was, gradually became something we read as mostly Mediterranean and Christian. It probably goes beyond the kingdoms that followed Rome and most probably even beyond strict ‘Roman-ness’.

<p>The AlpArray programme "Mountain Building Processes in 4D" is an interdisciplinary project aimed to image the structure of the Alps and understand their formation. The goal is to be able to model the entire crust-mantle system in three dimensions, and investigate its evolution through time. Seismicity can reveal spatial and temporal patterns of faulting and thereby help to understand the current tectonic structure and motions in the Earth's crust. The south-eastern Alps are of special interest as they include the current plate boundary between Adria and Eurasia, but their undelying structure is poorly resolved and seismicity seems to be scarce. Being able to detect the smallest earthquakes is therefore of key importance.</p><p>Swath-D was an AlpArray complementary experiment in which approximately 150 broadband seismic stations were deployed in the Eastern Alps from late 2017 to late 2019. With a station spacing of around 15 km, it is much denser than the AlpArray Backbone network. In this work, data from these stations, combined with publicly available broadband data from the region, were used to detect, localize, and characterize microseismic events. A combination of energy-based detection and template matching was applied to both discover previously unidentified seismic activity and yield a high number of detections. An efficient GPU-based implementation was of critical importance to handle computationally demanding detection methods and the large data volume. Here, we present our methods and workflow, and a new map of seismicity in the south-eastern Alps.</p>

Abstract In the south-eastern Eastern Alps, the Reifnitz tonalite intruded into the Austroalpine metamorphic basement of the Wörthersee half-window exposed north of the Sarmatian–Pliocene flexural Klagenfurt basin. The Reifnitz tonalite is dated for the first time, and yields a laser ICP-MS U–Pb zircon age of 30.72±0.30 Ma. The (U–Th–Sm)/He apatite age of the tonalite is 27.6 ± 1.8 Ma implying rapid Late Oligocene cooling of the tonalite to ca. 60 °C. The Reifnitz tonalite intruded into a retrogressed amphibolite-grade metamorphic basement with a metamorphic overprint of Cretaceous age (40Ar/39Ar white mica plateau age of 90.7 ± 1.6 Ma). This fact indicates that pervasive Alpine metamorphism of Cretaceous age extends southwards almost up to the Periadriatic fault. Based on the exhumation and erosion history of the Reifnitz tonalite and the hosting Wörthersee half window formed by the Wörthersee anticline, the age of gentle folding of Austroalpine units in the south-eastern part of the Eastern Alps is likely of Oligocene age. North of the Wörthersee antiform, Upper Cretaceous–Eocene, Oligocene and Miocene sedimentary rocks of the Krappfeld basin are preserved in a gentle synform, suggesting that the top of the Krappfeld basin has always been near the Earth’s surface since the Late Cretaceous. The new data imply, therefore, that the Reifnitz tonalite is part of a post-30 Ma antiform, which was likely exhumed, uplifted and eroded in two steps. In the first step, which is dated to ca. 31–27 Ma, rapid cooling to ca. 60 °C and exhumation occurred in an E–W trending antiform, which formed as a result of a regional N–S compression. In the second step of the Sarmatian–Pliocene age a final exhumation occurred in the peripheral bulge in response to the lithospheric flexure in front of the overriding North Karawanken thrust sheet. The Klagenfurt basin developed as a flexural basin at the northern front of the North Karawanken, which represent a transpressive thrust sheet of a positive flower structure related to the final activity along the Periadriatic fault. In the Eastern Alps, on a large scale, the distribution of Periadriatic plutons and volcanics seems to monitor a northward or eastward shift of magmatic activity, with the main phase of intrusions ca. 30 Ma at the fault itself.
