DEFMOD-LiMA Deformation Modelling of the Lithosphere in the Eastern Mediterranean-Anatolian Region

Coordinator: UNIVERSITA TA MALTA (MT)

The Eastern Mediterranean-Anatolian region presents a complex tectonic environment characterized by the interaction of the African, Arabian, and Eurasian plates. This area exhibits a unique interplay of subduction, continental collision, and backarc extension. The DEFMOD-LiMA project (Deformation Modelling of the Lithosphere in the Eastern Mediterranean-Anatolian Region) aims to elucidate mechanisms of lithospheric deformations in this intricate setting through a multidisciplinary approach that integrates geophysical and geodynamic methods. The project involves mapping high-resolution 3D isot…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

The project runs over approximately 2 years from 2026-03-02 to 2028-03-01.
