Role of structural inheritance in the gravitational deformation of the Monviso meta-ophiolite Complex: the Pui-Orgiera serpentinite landslide (Varaita Valley, Western Alps)

Depending on its chemical and mineralogical composition, the serpentinite represents a peculiar rocky material, which plays a significant role in influencing pedogenetic weathering, vegetation ecology, geo-mechanical and tectonic processes, as well as gravitational slope failure. In serpentinite-bea...
