Abstract

In this paper the tectonic behavior of Leukas and Meganisi islands (Ionian Sea) is examined through underwater research carried out in both islands. A possible Late Holocene correlation between coseismic subsidences is attempted and evidenced by submerged tidal notches in both islands. These subsidence events probably occurred after the uplift that affected the northernmost part of Leukas around 4 to 5ka BP. In conclusion, although the whole area was affected by a similar tectonic strain, certain coseismic events were only recorded in one of the two islands and in some cases they affected only part of the study area

伊奥尼亚海Leukas和Meganisi岛潮汐缺口的晚全新世构造意义。

本文通过在爱奥尼亚海的Leukas岛和Meganisi岛进行水下研究，考察了这两个岛的构造行为。在这两个岛屿上的淹没潮汐缺口证明了同震沉降之间可能的晚全新世相关性。这些沉降事件可能发生在约4 ~ 5ka BP左右的白垩系最北端隆升之后。总之，尽管整个地区都受到类似的构造应变的影响，但某些同震事件只在两个岛屿中的一个岛上记录下来，在某些情况下，它们只影响了部分研究区域
