Instituto Oceanográfico, Universidade de São Paulo, Brasil. Corresponding email: chiara.dambrogi@isprambiente.it Keywords: Po basin, 3D modeling, tectonic control, geopotentials. A new seismic interpretation, performed in the framework of the EU funded GeoMol Project, allows to detail the evolution of a wide area (3,800 km 2 ) in the central part of the Po basin. The area runs along a NW-SE direction from Brescia to Mirandola, enclosing the Southern Alps thrust front, which evolves in the Lake Garda area from a E-W strike to the NNE-trending Giudicarie belt, and the external front of the Northern Apennines, the Ferrara arc. Between the two thrust fronts is the south-dipping Mantova Monocline. The variability of the stratigraphic units, in terms of environment facies and thickness, is known, but the impressive dense seismic dataset (12,000 km, kindly provided by ENI S.p.A) analyzed for the GeoMol Project enables, through a 3D model and derived elaborations (restoration and thickness maps), to describe the steps of the sedimentary evolution and to detect the role of the tectonic structures on the basin architecture during the Paleogene-Quaternary time interval. We recognized and modeled 10 main seismic horizons younger than the top Scaglia (late Cretaceous-Paleogene) and the main thrust systems. Chronological data from recent literature are used to better constrain the age of the younger five horizons, Pleistocene in age. The core of our basin analysis is a 3D model time-depth converted and constrained using 136 well stratigraphies. The thickness maps derived from the 3D model describe the basin configuration as foreland of the Alps and then of the Apennines, and more in detail the changes in the architecture of the Apennine foredeep, where local depocentres have been detected. These depocentres are controlled by thrust activity up to the Pleistocene, which influenced the sedimentation history of the whole basin from the marine to continental environment. Due to the large number of geometrical and chronological constraints, the thrust activity is particularly well documented during the Pleistocene. The resulting effects do not only exercises a control on the morphology of the basin, but also affect the drainage pattern of the Po River and its tributaries during the shelf progradation. The result is a detailed 3D imagery of the central portion of the Po basin that points out the tectonic control on the different steps of the basin evolution. Moreover the 3D model will be the base for the assessment of the geothermal potential in the area, according to the common modeling and potential assessment workflows defined with the European partners and applied in the other pilot areas of the GeoMol Project. The project GeoMol is co-funded by the Alpine Space Program as part of the European Territorial Cooperation 2007-2013. The project integrates partners from Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Slovenia and Switzerland and runs from September 2012 to June 2015. Further information on www.geomol.eu. 158
