    Description: This study presents and discusses horizontal and vertical geodetic velocities for a low strain rate region of the south Alpine thrust front in northeastern Italy obtained by integrating GPS, interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) and leveling data. The area is characterized by the presence of subparallel, south-verging thrusts whose seismogenic potential is still poorly known. Horizontal GPS velocities show that this sector of the eastern Southern Alps is undergoing ∼1 mm a−1 of NW–SE shortening associated with the Adria–Eurasia plate convergence, but the horizontal GPS velocity gradient across the mountain front provides limited constraints on the geometry and slip rate of the several subparallel thrusts. In terms of vertical velocities, the three geodetic methods provide consistent results showing a positive velocity gradient, of ∼ 1.5 mm a−1, across the mountain front, which can hardly be explained solely by isostatic processes. We developed an interseismic dislocation model whose geometry is constrained by available subsurface geological reconstructions and instrumental seismicity. While a fraction of the measured uplift can be attributed to glacial and erosional isostatic processes, our results suggest that interseismic strain accumulation at the Montello and the Bassano–Valdobbiadene thrusts it significantly contributing to the measured uplift. The seismogenic potential of the Montello thrust turns out to be smaller than that of the Bassano–Valdobbiadene fault, whose estimated parameters (locking depth equals 9.1 km and slip rate equals 2.1 mm a−1) indicate a structure capable of potentially generating a Mw〉6.5 earthquake. These results demonstrate the importance of precise vertical ground velocity data for modeling interseismic strain accumulation in slowly deforming regions where seismological and geomorphological evidence of active tectonics is often scarce or not conclusive.

    Description: The Italian earthquake waveform data are collected here in a dataset suited for machine learning analysis (ML) applications. The dataset consists of nearly 1.2 million three-component (3C) waveform traces from about 50 000 earthquakes and more than 130 000 noise 3C waveform traces, for a total of about 43 000 h of data and an average of 21 3C traces provided per event. The earthquake list is based on the Italian Seismic Bulletin (http://terremoti.ingv.it/bsi, last access: 15 February 2020​​​​​​​) of the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia between January 2005 and January 2020, and it includes events in the magnitude range between 0.0 and 6.5. The waveform data have been recorded primarily by the Italian National Seismic Network (network code IV) and include both weak- (HH, EH channels) and strong-motion (HN channels) recordings. All the waveform traces have a length of 120 s, are sampled at 100 Hz, and are provided both in counts and ground motion physical units after deconvolution of the instrument transfer functions. The waveform dataset is accompanied by metadata consisting of more than 100 parameters providing comprehensive information on the earthquake source, the recording stations, the trace features, and other derived quantities. This rich set of metadata allows the users to target the data selection for their own purposes. Much of these metadata can be used as labels in ML analysis or for other studies. The dataset, assembled in HDF5 format, is available at http://doi.org/10.13127/instance (Michelini et al., 2021).

    Description: È tracciato qui un sintetico percorso per descrivere la sismotettonica dell’Italia centrale e settentrionale, attraverso l’analisi delle deformazioni e delle dislocazioni oggi in atto nella litosfera, la porzione più esterna e fredda del pianeta. Usualmente non siamo non grado di renderci conto delle deformazioni crostali attualmente in corso - oggetto di studio della cosiddetta tettonica attiva - ma sappiamo che sono sempre presenti e che da queste si originano i terremoti. Descriveremo pertanto i principali sistemi di faglie ritenuti in grado di generare forti terremoti nell’Italia centrale e settentrionale. La completa parametrizzazione della geometria e della cinematica di una faglia attiva e in grado di generare terremoti viene definita sorgente sismogenetica; ci concentreremo sulle sorgenti ritenute responsabili dei terremoti più forti, in particolare dei terremoti di magnitudo superiore a 5.5. Precisiamo che la magnitudo di 5.5 è ritenuta discriminante per due principali motivi: 1. è usualmente considerata il valore “di soglia” oltre il quale la faglia assume dimensioni tali da poter – in taluni casi – essere identificata attraverso le metodologie geologiche; 2. in Italia, per via delle tipologie costruttive prevalenti, lo scuotimento generato da terremoti crostali con magnitudo superiore a 5.5 può creare danni significativi alle opere antropiche
