<p>Studying the structure and tectonic evolution of the margins of the Ligurian sea, a narrow oceanic basin opened while Europe and Africa were converging, using High Resolution Seismic reflection and in-situ observations by submersible (CYANA) with the following specific goals: a) nature of the basement before the opening and role of the Alpine structures in the mechanism of opening; b) spatial distribution and geodynamic significance of the Miocene volcanism ; c) nature and spatial distribution of the sediments of the Messinian event (5 to 6 MY ago); d)Plio-Quaternary sedimentation, uplifting of Corsica and reactivation of structures in the area of present seismic activity at the foot of the Northern Ligurian margin</p>
