    Description: According to the U.S. Geological Survey’s Earthquake Hazards Program, a seismic swarm is “a localized surge of earth- quakes, with no one shock being conspicuously larger than all other shocks of the swarm. They might occur in a variety of geologic environments and are not known to be indicative of any change in the long- term seismic risk of the region in which they occur” (http://vulcan.wr.usgs.gov/Glossary/ Seismicitydescription_earthquakes.html). The definition reveals how little is actually known about seismic swarms. For example, could certain seismic settings be more prone to swarms? Could a fault zone prone to large energetic earthquakes release part of its stress through seismic swarms? Do swarms keep hazards in balance, or could their onset increase hazards? To gain insight into the nature of seismic swarms in nonvolcanic areas and to better understand their influence on seismic hazards, the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV) and the German Research Centre for Geoscience (GFZ) began a combined research project within the framework of the Network of European Research Infrastructures for Earthquake Risk Assessment and Mitigation (NERA; see http:// www.nera-eu.org/). The project focused on monitoring swarm activity occurring in the Pollino range in Southern Apennines, Italy.

    Description: With the scientific purpose to monitor the micro-seismicity in the Central Apennines, we recently deployed in Eastern Tuscany (Casentino) a temporary 12 element seismic array, composed exclusively of 3-component seismometers. During the one month of registration we recorded an unexpected high rate of local micro-seismicity with up to 180 events per day.

    Description: We present results from the first crustal seismic tomography for the southern Tyrrhenian area, which includes ocean bottom seismometer (OBS) data and a bathymetry correction. This area comprises Mt. Etna, the Aeolian Islands, and many volcanic seamounts, including the Marsili Seamount. The seismicity distribution in the area depends on the complex interaction between tectonics and volcanism. The 3-D velocity model presented in this study is obtained by the inversion of P wave arrival times from crustal earthquakes. We integrate travel time data recorded by an OBS network (Tyrrhenian Deep Sea Experiment), the SN-1 seafloor observatory, and the land network. Our model shows a high correlation between the P wave anomaly distribution and seismic and volcanic structures. Two main low-velocity anomalies underlie the central Aeolian Islands and Mt. Etna. The two volumes, which are related to the well-known active volcanism, are separated and located at different depths. This finding, in agreement with structural, petrography, and GPS data from literature, confirms the independence of the two systems. The strongest negative anomaly is found below Mt. Etna at the base of the crust, and we associate it with the deep feeding system of the volcano. We infer that most of the seismicity is generated in brittle rock volumes that are affected by the action of hot fluids under high pressure due to the active volcanism in the area. Lateral changes of velocity are related to a transition from the western to the central Aeolian Islands and to the passage from continental crust to the Tyrrhenian oceanic uppermost mantle.

    Description: The problem of large location uncertainties for seismicity occurring in the Southern Tyrrhenian Sea have been partially exceeded during the implementation of the long-term scientific mission of the TYrrhenian Deep sea Experiment (TYDE), which allowed the installation of 14 wide-band Ocean Bottom Seismometers (OBS) and Hydrophones (OBH) in the period December 2000 – May 2001 on the sea-bottom floor around the Aeolian and Ustica Islands. Local events recorded at landstations have been observed also on the seismograms of the Ocean Bottom Seismic Network (OBSN). Moreover, some hundreds of low magnitude events, undetected from the land networks, have been recorded. We combined the readings of body wave arrival times from OBS-OBH with those from landstations to localise seismic events. We focused our study on three clusters of events representative of the seismic activity of the area: (i) “deep” events, (ii) Ustica (iii) NE-Sicily. The analysis of the integrated data set of the seismicity off-shore and on-shore, obtained from the combined land-OBS seismic network (Ustica sequence and Deep events), has improved locations in terms of RMS residuals, azimuthal gap, epicentral and hypocentral errors. Moreover, further classes of events have been analysed: the first one includes some local events that could be located only by integrating single trigger readings from the few available land-stations with the OBSN-data; the second one comprises local events that have been detected only by the OBS-OBH stations. In particular, the last cluster underlines the importance of an OBSN in the Tyrrhenian deep basin to reveal its unknown intense micro-seismicity, permitting to better understand both the tectonic and geodynamic picture of the area.

    Description: Human operations, such as mining, fluid production and the construction of a barrier lake in a tectonically active area can play an important role of triggering seismic events. An interesting area to study those phenomena is the northern part of the Upper Tiber Valley, which is characterized by the presence of a Low Angle Normal Fault, the so called Alto Tiberina Fault (ATF). The recent seismic activity of this fault line reflects the geodynamic behaviour in the regional stress field. Close to this fault zone, a 4.8 km deep borehole PSS1 is located which will be reopened at the end of 2010 to extract CO2. This will possibly lead to a change in the hydraulic equilibrium in this region with potential consequences for the overall local geodynamics. Crustal deformation and microseismicity could be induced by the extraction. Fluid pressure changes and their influence to the hydraulic conduits up to the natural fluid emissions sites (mofettes) will be investigated as part of an actively controlled forcing experiment on this fault. Further human activities like mining industry and the filling of water reservoirs influence the local stress field. The derivation of natural and human induced seismicity can be improved by a comprehensive analysis.
