    Notes: The Apennines comprise a Neogen—Quaternary accretionary prism that shows several anomalies with respect to classic alpine-type mountain belts, namely (i) low elevation, (ii) a shallow new Moho below the core of the belt, (iii) high heat flow in the internal parts, (iv) mainly sedimentary cover involved in the prism, (v) a deep foredeep and (vi) a fully developed back-arc basin. The suction exerted by a relatively eastward migrating mantle can determine the eastward retreat of the subduction zone and an asthenospheric wedging at the retreating subduction hinge. Heat flow, geochemical and seismological data support the presence of a hot mantle wedge underlying the western side of the Apenninic accretionary prism. A thermal model of the belt with foreland dipping isotherms fits with deepening of the seismicity toward the east. Mantle volatiles signatures are also widespread in springs along the Apennines.

    Heat flow and geodynamics in the Tyrrhenian Sea (2003)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Science Ltd

    Notes: The present heat flow in the southern Tyrrhenian Sea appears as a transient thermal wave that has migrated eastward in time. The higher heat flow in the south-eastern side of the basin confirms the suggestion of an eastward-migrating rift. Punctuation of the Tyrrhenian backarc extension in lithospheric boudins is accompanied by a concentrated increase in heat flow generated by asthenospheric intrusions and related magmatism progressively moving eastward. The migration of the asthenosphere in the same direction could explain these phenomena.

    Evaluation of stresses in two geodynamically different areas: Stable foreland and extensional backarc (1996)

    Notes: Abstract Areas which are geodynamically different have different behaviors both in their thermal regime and seismic activity. A stable area has a geotherm which can be considered as standard, extensional and compressional areas have, respectively, high and low temperature gradients. The Italian region includes different geodynamical areas and all such situations are present. We consider the Apulian platform as an example of a stable area and the Tuscany-Latium as an example of an extensional area. For both of them the present geotherms are calculated, taking into account, for the Tuscany-Latium, its thermal history. Assuming that each region is subject to a constant strain rate, the stresses are calculated as functions of depth and time. The rheological behavior is assumed to be linear viscoelastic, with viscosity dependent on temperature and elastic parameters dependent on lithology. The geothermal profile and the rheological structure of the lithosphere remarkably affect the processes of stress accumulation which control the distribution of seismic activity. The abrupt decrease of the temperature gradient at the Moho produces considerably higher stress values with respect to the case of uniform gradient, thus favoring subcrustal seismicity. In the case of a standard temperature gradient, subcrustal seismicity is predicted and a gap in seismicity, indicating a soft intracrustal layer, exists if there is a discontinuity in rheology. By contrast, in the case of a high-temperature gradient, subcrustal seismicity is not to be expected, even in the presence of a discontinuity in rheology, since subcrustal temperatures are already too high to permit a sufficient stress accumluation.

    Stress Field at a Transcurrent Plate Boundary in the Presence of Frictional Heat Production at Depth (1997)
    Springer
    Pure and applied geophysics 150 (1997), S. 181-201

    ISSN: 1420-9136
    Keywords: Key words: Fault dislocation, frictional heat production rheology, stress field.

    Notes: Abstract. —A model is proposed to study the modification of the stress field at a transcurrent plate boundary due to frictional heat production at depth. Two cases are considered a stable and a stretched lithosphere. The model is applied to those weak faults where the dynamic friction is small compared to a static one; if the deformation along the brittle portion of the fault is entirely accommodated by a series of seismic ruptures in a quasi-static state where the fault has been moving for millions of years, the long-term thermal field perturbation due to these ruptures results in only a few degrees and can be neglected. The boundary zone is considered as a viscoelastic body subject to a constant strain rate. The lower section of the boundary is assumed to slip aseismically along a vertical transcurrent fault and to completely accommodate the plate motion, while the upper section is locked. The slipping zone is divided into a semi-brittle zone, placed between the isothermal surfaces of 300°C and 450°C, and a ductile zone beneath. The frictional heat is calculated by assuming a linearly decreasing friction in the semi-brittle and a constant friction in the ductile zones. The heat modifies the temperature field, producing an upward movement of the semi-brittle and ductile fault sections. As a consequence, the thickness of the brittle fault section is reduced and friction at the base of this section is less. The stress field in the boundary zone is calculated as a function of time for different friction profiles and slip rates on the fault. Owing to heat production, a greater stress concentration is produced on the brittle fault section, while shear stress is lowered in regions occupied by the uplifted semi-brittle layer. These effects are found to be remarkable only in the case of a stable zone, with a standard unperturbed geotherm, while they are irrelevant in a stretched zone with a high geothermal gradient. In any case, the role of the semi-brittle layer appears to be more prominent in the case of boundaries with higher slip rates, due to the presence of higher stress values.

    Influence of accurate heat flux measurements on the evaluation of evaporation from a bare soil by energy balance (1978)

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Genaue Messungen der thermischen Leitfähigkeit und der Diffusion, die auf der Boden-oberfläche mit einer flachen Heizquelle und in verschiedenen Tiefen mit zylindrischen Wärmequellen durchgeführt worden sind, haben eine bessere Schätzung des Wärmeflusses im Boden ermöglicht. Es wurde festgestellt, daß der Wärmefluß eine wichtige Komponente der Energiebilanz in einem aperen Boden über ein kurzes Zeitintervall hinweg (1 Stunde) ist. Tatsächlich kann, wenn Verdunstung auftritt und der Bodenwassergehalt gering ist, der Wärmefluß einen Spitzenwert von 25% der Strahlungsbilanz erreichen und, wenn die Verdunstungswärme Null ist, kann er einen Wert etwas über 40% erreichen (dies ist im allgemeinen wenige Stunden nach Sonnenaufgang oder vor Sonnenuntergang der Fall). Folglich ist die Schätzung der Verdunstungswärme aus der Energiebilanz mehr realistisch, wenn der Wert des Wärmeflusses in Boden nicht unsicher ist, vorausgesetzt, daß alle anderen Komponenten bekannt oder meßbar sind.
    Notes: Summary Accurate measurements of thermal conductivity and diffusivity, made both at soil surface by a flat heater and at various depths by cylindrical heat sources, had allowed a better estimation of soil heat flux. It was seen that heat flux is an important component in the energy balance for a bare soil over a short time interval (as 1 hr): indeed, when the driving force of evaporation is active and soil water content is low, heat flux may reach the peak value of 25 percent of net radiation, and, when the evaporative heat is zero, it may reach a value slightly more than 40 percent (generally, this is noted few hours after sunrise or before sunset). Subsequently, the estimate of the evaporative heat by energy balance is more realistic if the value of soil heat flux is not ambiguous, provided that all other components are known or measurable.

    Heat flow in Italy (1978)
    Springer
    Pure and applied geophysics 117 (1978), S. 135-149

    ISSN: 1420-9136
    Keywords: Heat flow corrections ; Heat flow and tectonic features ; Mediterranean plate tectonics
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Geosciences , Physics
    Notes: Abstract More than fifty heat flow measurements in Italy are examined. The values, corrected only for local influences (when present), are related to the main geological features with the following results: foreland areas, 55±19 mW m−2, foredeep areas, 45±21 mW m−2; folded regions and intermountain depressions, 76±29 mW m−2. In volcanic areas the heat flow rises to in excess of 600 mW m−2. From a tectonic point of view, these values are consistent with the hypothesis that the Apennine chain is intersected by two arcuate structures: the first from Liguria to Latium is very probably a continental arc, that is an are which occurs within a continent, and the second from Campania to Calabria is very similar from geophysical evidence to the classic island arcs.
