Fig. 10

Model for the tectonic evolution of Austroalpine nappes from Early Cretaceous to Late Paleogene times. Representative LPOs are linked with distinct deformation stages. Sketches are not to scale. Upper box includes a paleogeographic sketch (left) with the relative positions of Austroalpine nappes during Late Jurassic–Mid Cretaceous times (modified after Kurz and Fritz 2003).
