Italy has been majorly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The government declared a full lockdown and limited human commercial activities to keep pandemic under control. activity reduced spread of virus cultural noise it created. effect is detected Italian strong motion network, which covers entire country with their stations mostly located in settlements. To assess lockdown, background information up 1 s from 2022 used as comparison. It found that levels dropped around 1.46 dB during...

Campi Flegrei is a nested caldera in Southern Italy well known to the geoscience community for its complex geology and recurrent bradyseismic events. Recently, interest region renewed as consequence of an ongoing crisis with particular focus on associated increment seismicity. Being one most densely populated volcanic areas world, population over 500K people, high social impact that strong seismic events could have makes monitoring area not only seismological but also priority Department...

Understanding earthquake source properties, such as the seismic moment (M&amp;#8320;), is vital in seismology due to its direct correlation with fault dimensions and slip. The objective of study which focuses on Northeastern Italy define an empirical relation between S-wave peak displacement specific region's attenuation characteristics. being obtained by fitting omega-squared Brune model low-frequency part spectrum achievable applying a spectral decomposition approach known Generalized...

Only the first level of seismic microzonation (SM1), performed in 2016, is available for city Trieste. A noise measurements campaign was conducted municipality during 2022 different homogeneous microzones perspective (MOPS), defined by SM1.&amp;#160;The main purpose to verify behaviour within each MOPS, and results have shown that hypothesis a homogenous microzone not always verified: many cases, high behavioural variability found same. Therefore, MOPS seem be good tool general first-level...

Abstract The goals of this work are to review the Northern-Italy ground-motion prediction equations (GMPEs) for amplitude parameters and propose new GMPEs frequency content duration parameters. Approximately 10,000 weak strong waveforms have been collected merging information from different neighboring regional seismic networks operating in last 30 yr throughout Northern Italy. New models, calibrated epicentral distances ≤100 km both local ( M L ) moment magnitude w ), developed starting a...

A strong motion monitoring network records data that provide an excellent way to study how source, path, and site effects influence the ground motion, specifically in near-source area. Such are essential for updating seismic hazard maps consequently building codes earthquake-resistant design. This paper aims present Italian Strong Motion Network (RAN), describing its current status, employment, further developments. It has 648 stations is result of a fruitful co-operation between government,...

Abstract Separation of seismic sources events such as earthquakes and quarry blasts is a complex task and, in most cases, require manual inspection. In this study, artificial neural network models are developed to automatically identify the that occurred North-East Italy, where may share same area. Due proximity locations active fault lines mining sites, many registered can contaminate earthquake catalogues. To be able differentiate various 11,821 records from 1463 detected by networks 9822...

Near fault ground motions may contain impulse behavior on velocity records. Such signals have a particular indicator which makes it possible to distinguish them from non-impulsive signals. These significant effects structures; therefore, they been investigated for more than 20 years. In this study, we used Ricker and Morlet wavelets in order analyze the wavelet power spectrum of strong motion investigate impulsiveness.
