We present a 1:25,000 scale map of the coseismic surface ruptures following 30 October 2016 Mw 6.5 Norcia normal-faulting earthquake, central Italy. Detailed rupture mapping is based on almost 11,000 oblique photographs taken from helicopter flights, that has been verified and integrated with field data (>7000 measurements). Thanks to common efforts Open EMERGEO Working Group (130 people, 25 research institutions universities Europe), we were able document complex faulting pattern dominant...
We provide a database of the coseismic geological surface effects following Mw 6.5 Norcia earthquake that hit central Italy on 30 October 2016. This was one strongest seismic events to occur in Europe past thirty years, causing complex ruptures over an area >400 km2. The originated from collaboration several European teams (Open EMERGEO Working Group; about 130 researchers) coordinated by Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia. observations were collected performing detailed field...
<p>Since the beginning of ongoing Amatrice seismic sequence on August 24, 2016, initiated by a Mw 6.0 normal faulting earthquake, EMERGEO Working Group (an INGV team devoted to earthquake aftermath geological survey) set off investigate any coseismic effects natural environment. Up now, we surveyed about 750 km2 and collected more than 3200 observations as differently oriented tectonic fractures together with intermediate- small- sized landslides, that were mapped in whole area. The...
Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard Analysis (PTHA) quantifies the probability of exceeding a specified inundation intensity at given location within time interval. PTHA provides scientific guidance for tsunami risk analysis and management, including coastal planning early warning. Explicit computation site-specific PTHA, with an adequate discretization source scenarios combined high-resolution numerical modelling, has been out reach existing models computing capabilities, tens to hundreds...
The EU Center of Excellence for Exascale in Solid Earth (ChEESE) develops exascale transition capabilities the domain Earth, an area geophysics rich computational challenges embracing different approaches to (capability, capacity, and urgent computing). first implementation phase project (ChEESE-1P; 2018–2022) addressed scientific technical seismology, tsunami science, volcanology, magnetohydrodynamics, order understand phenomena, anticipate impact natural disasters, contribute risk...
Abstract We integrate paleoseismic data sets along the Mt. Vettore‐Mt. Bove normal fault system rupturing at surface in 30 October 2016 Norcia earthquake. Through analysis of new trenches from this work and a review preexisting data, we correlate events among trench sites antithetic synthetic splays. recognize seven M 6.5, Norcia‐type (or larger) surface‐faulting last ~22 kyr, including 2016. Before 2016, one event occurred past two millennia (260–575 CE) possibly corresponds to damaging...
Inundation maps are a fundamental tool for coastal risk management and in particular designing evacuation planning. These turn necessary component of the tsunami warning systems’ last-mile. In Italy inundation informed by probabilistic hazard model. Based on given level acceptable risk, Italian authorities charge this task recommended to consider, as design intensity, average return period 2500 years 84th percentile model uncertainty. An available, regional-scale was used that covers entire...
We present a 1:10,000 scale map of the coseismic surface ruptures following 26 December 2018 Mw 4.9 earthquake that struck eastern flank Mt. Etna volcano (southern Italy). Detailed rupture mapping is based on extensive field surveys in epicentral region. Despite small size event, we were able to document faulting for about 8 km along trace NNW-trending active Fiandaca Fault, belonging Timpe tectonic system volcano. The mapped are characterized most cases by perceivable opening and dominant...
In July and August 2019, two paroxysmal eruptions dramatically changed the morphology of crater terrace that hosts active vents Stromboli volcano (Italy). Here, we document these morphological changes, by using 2259 UAS-derived photographs from eight surveys Structure-from-Motion (SfM) photogrammetric techniques, resulting in 3D point clouds, orthomosaics, digital surface models (DSMs) with resolution ranging 8.1 to 12.4 cm/pixel. We focus on evolution volcanic features volume changes upper...
&lt;p&gt;The global sea-level rise (SLR) projections for the next decades are basis developing flooding maps that depict expected hazard scenarios. However, spatially variable land subsidence has generally not been considered in current projections. In this study, we use geodetic data from navigation satellite system (GNSS), synthetic aperture radar interferometric measurements (InSAR) and tidal stations to show rates SLR along coast between Catania Marzamemi, south-eastern Sicily...
Sea level rise is one of the main risk factors for preservation cultural heritage sites located along coasts Mediterranean basin. Coastal retreat, erosion, and storm surges are posing serious threats to archaeological historical structures built coastal zones this region. In order assess changes by end 2100 under expected sea about 1 m, we need a detailed determination current coastline position based on high resolution Digital Surface Models (DSM). This paper focuses use very...
We provide a database of the surface ruptures produced by 26 December 2018 Mw 4.9 earthquake that struck eastern flank Mt. Etna volcano in Sicily (southern Italy). Despite its relatively small magnitude, this shallow caused about 8 km faulting, along trace NNW-trending active Fiandaca Fault. Detailed field surveys have been performed epicentral area to map and characterize their kinematics. The show dominant right-oblique sense displacement with an average slip 0.09 m maximum value 0.35 m....
Abstract We provide the first 3‐D resistivity image of Pian Grande di Castelluccio basin, main Quaternary depocenter in hangingwall Mt.Vettore–Mt. Bove normal fault system (VBFS), responsible for October 30, 2016 M w 6.5 Norcia earthquake (central Italy). The subsurface structure basin is poorly known, and its relation with VBFS remains debated. Using recent Fullwaver technology, we carried out a high‐resolution 2‐D transect crossing coseismic ruptures coupled an extensive survey aim of: (a)...
This work focuses on the study of land subsidence processes by means multi-temporal and multi-frequency InSAR techniques. Specifically, we retrieve long-term evolution (2003–2018) creeping phenomenon producing ground fissuring in Ciudad Guzmán (Jalisco state, Mexico) urban area. The city is located northern side Volcan de Colima area, one most active Mexican volcanoes. On September 21 2012, was struck fissures about 1.5 km length, causing deformation roads propagation adjacent buildings....
