Abstract Starting from 24 August 2016, a long seismic sequence, including nine M w > 5.0 earthquakes, struck wide area of the Central Italy. A large amount geological, geodetic, and seismological data envisages complex system NNW‐SSE trending, seismogenic normal faults. These active tectonic structures are well known at surface consistent with previous seismotectonic studies. In order to improve comprehension framework this we provide novel reconstruction subsurface geology close Norcia...
In this paper, the CROP03-deep seismic reflection profile in Northern Apennines is described and re-considered light of new geophysical data interpretations made available last five years (particularly from heat flow measurements, aeromagnetics, tomography, active stress determination passive seismology). The crustal structure shown to be composed two distinct domains. To west Tyrrhenian domain east Adriatic domain. These domains have distinctive geological characteristics that exhibit...
Since 1963, the International Heat Flow Commission has been fostering compilation of Global Database to provide reliable heat-flow data. Over time, techniques and methodologies evolved, calling for a reorganization database structure reassessment stored Here, we results collaborative, community-driven approach set-up new, quality-approved global database. We present background information on how is determined this important thermal parameter could be systematically evaluated. The latter...
In March 2021, a compressional earthquake sequence (mainshock Mw 5.2) occurred in the Central Adriatic Sea, offshore Croatia. The struck area is characterized by complex tectonic settings due to interaction between and halokinetic structures. Former studies this region, mostly based on geophysical seismological data, do not provide comprehensive description of geological complexities area, caused presence different types active Following interpretation depth conversion set seismic reflection...
The activation of Late Quaternary faults in the Central Apennines (Italy) could generate earthquakes with magnitude about 6.5, and Monte Vettore fault system probably belongs to same category seismogenetic faults. Such structure has been defined 'silent', because its geological geomorphological evidences past activation, but absence historical records seismic catalogues be associated activation. 'Piano di Castelluccio' intramountain basin, resulting from activity normal faults, is...
We have integrated and analyzed a 3D ground-penetrating radar (GPR) volume with trenching exposure data set to evaluate the potential of these methods individually combined for study fault zone. chose test site across branch active Castrovillari in Northern Calabria (Southern Italy). This tectonic structure is one most area, it has generated strong earthquakes past. Based on analysis previously collected data, GPR survey was carried out 1.2 m from outcrop. The goal use guide optimize...
In this work, we present a 1:3,000,000-scale geologic map of the Raditladi quadrangle (H04) Mercury. The area covers nearly 7% entire planet and encompasses several features interest such as Caloris basin, hollow clusters volcanic features. mapping took advantage data produced during MESSENGER's orbital phase. mapped deposits include impact-related units observed at scales from basin to secondary crater chains. Smooth Plains unit majority area, mantling older Intercrater Bright units....
Abstract The recent 2016–2017 seismic sequence in Central Italy has prompted the investigation of several geological and geophysical data order to derive more accurate subsurface models. We present results combined gravity magnetic modeling performed along three sections crossing area evaluate parameters controlling or affecting thickness seismogenic layer this part Apennines. models are constructed using all available petrophysical constraints derived from previous studies. Resulting...
Abstract. In seismotectonic studies, seismic reflection data are a powerful tool to unravel the complex deep architecture of active faults. Such tectonic structures usually mapped at surface through traditional geological surveying, whilst may help trace their continuation from near down hypocentral depths. On data, attributes commonly used by oil and gas industry aid exploration. this study, we propose using in research for first time. The study area is geologically region central Italy,...
The 2016 Central Italy seismic sequence was characterized by two main events: 24 August, Mw 6, and 30 October, 6.5. We carried out high-resolution field sampling DInSAR analysis of the coseismic intra-sequence ground deformations along Mt Vettore-Mt Bove causative fault (VBF). found that during period (24 August–30 October), experienced some whose final patterns seemed to be retraced amplified following mainshock. interpreted (i) immediately after August earthquake, deformation observed in...
Mercury’s peculiar orbit around the Sun (3:2 spin–orbit resonance) and lack of atmosphere result in one widest temperature ranges experienced at surface a planetary body solar system. Temperature variations affect physical and, therefore, spectral properties minerals to varying degrees; thus, it is crucial study them context upcoming arrival BepiColombo spacecraft Mercury fall 2025. In this work, we heated cooled analog materials (plagioclase volcanic glasses) temperatures representative...
The Castrovillari scarps (Cfs) are located in northern Calabria (Italy) and consist of three main WSW-dipping fault resulting from multiple rupture events. At the surface, these defined by breaks slope. Despite its near-surface complexity, faults likely merge to form a single normal at about 200 m depth, which we refer as fault. We present results multidisciplinary multiscale study selected site Cfs with aim (i) characterize geometry surface depth (ii) obtain constraints on slip history....
