An international team of researchers has discovered that the Earth's crust beneath Italy's Apennine Mountains is gradually delaminating, causing simultaneous stretching and compression. This process, known as delamination, occurs when the lower crust and part of the lithosphere separate and descend towards the Earth's mantle. The study, published in Nature, provides a unified explanation for the previously puzzling geological activity in the region.
