Adige River profile (black), and modelled paleo-river profiles with different properties (blue). Valley bedrock depths from drill wells and seismic interpretations are in black (continuous = drilled; dashed = partially drilled; dotted = seismic depth). The red depth corrects subsidence in the Po Plain and restores the paleo-elevation of the incision. The modelled river profiles are set so that they intersect today’s depth at Sinich, which is equivalent to assuming no uplift or subsidence since the incision event at Sinich
