    Convergence vs. retreat in Southern Tyrrhenian Sea: Insights from kinematics (2007)
    AGU
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: The Tyrrhenian Sea is an extensional basin opened by trench retreat and back-arc extension during subduction of the Calabrian slab in the last 10–12 My. Subduction is still active beneath the SEmost part of the Tyrrhenian Sea, as testified by seismicity down to 500 km depth. By analyzing seismicity and geodetic data, together with recent tomographic images, we define the present-day situation. An evident N-S compressional regime prevails in the Tyrrhenian region west of the Aeolian archipelago, while east of them a NNW-SSE extension is documented by focal mechanisms and GPS data, with a much smaller strain rate with respect to the past. The transition between these two domains is accommodated by a N-S discontinuity zone which runs from Aeolian Islands to Mt. Etna with an extensional to strike-slip deformation.

    End of subduction in northern Apennines confirmed by observations of quasi-Love waves from the great 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake (2007)
    AGU
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Surface waves from the great Sumatra-Andaman earthquakes of 2004 and 2005 that cross Italy south of 44 N display Love-to-Rayleigh scattered waves (quasi- Love phases) diagnostic of sharp lateral gradients in the anisotropic properties of Earth’s upper mantle. Surface waves that traverse Italy further north lack this distinctive phase, documenting a change in the upper mantle fabric that is corroborated by a shift in the fast polarization of shear wave birefringence. These observations suggest that orogen-parallel asthenospheric extension behind the retreating Apennines slab has limited geographical expression. We hypothesize that subduction rollback currently terminates at 44 N, while the upper mantle flow pattern further to the north has been recently rearranged.

    Sea level changes in the Mediterranean: tectonic implications (2008)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-02-24
    Description: The interpretation of sea level variations along the coasts of the Mediterranean region must be accompanied by the evaluation of vertical land movements associated with seismic and volcanic sources. This can be tentatively carried out through seismic strain analysis based on data pertaining the last 2 millennia as well as from the study of maritime archaeological structures.

    Sea level changes and vertical land movements in the Mediterranean from historical and geophysical data and modelling (2008)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-02-24
    Description: The Mediterranean basin is a natural laboratory for the reconstruction of the sea level variations since paleo-historical times. During the Holocene, sea level variations in this region have been mainly determined by the response of the geoid and of the solid Earth to the melting of remote ice aggregates, which has produced spatially variable signals mostly governed by the effect of ocean loading. An analysis of past and recent sea level variations is possible from various indicators, which provide data on relative sea level and crustal vertical movements on different time scales.

    Regional centroid moment tensor solutions in Cyprus from 1977 to the present and seismotectonic implications (2011)
    Springer Science+Business Media B.V.
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: We analyzed digital seismic records in order to extend back in time the catalog of regional centroid moment tensors (RCMTs) for the Cyprus region. We applied the analysis and inversion methodology also used for the present-day seismicity on seismograms recorded at regional distance. We computed 18 new regional CMTs of earthquakes of moderate magnitude (4.8≤M≤5.5) which occurred in the Cyprus region for the time span 1977–1996. These new focal mechanisms improved the knowledge given by the previously computed solutions carried out by other institutions, as well as the dataset of available earthquake source parameters. The complete focal mechanism database contributed to better define the deformation styles in the study area and to obtain a detailed characterization of the geodynamics of the Cyprus area. New RCMTs support the hypothesis that Cyprus is located in the middle of the transition area from subduction to continental collision along the Africa–Arabian–Eurasian boundary. In particular, data confirm (a) this transition zone is strictly located west of Cyprus, probably related to a tear in the subduction system, and (b) the still active compression in the Cyprus Arc can be seen as a starting point of the continental collision eastward.

    Lateral Changes of seismic anisotropy in the upper mantle around the Northern Apennines (2012)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-10-19
    Description: We performed three-dimensional analysis of anisotropic parameters of body waves to develop a 3D self-consistent dynamic model of the syn-convergent extension in the Northern Apennines within the multidisciplinary project RETREAT. Simultaneous extension within the convergent margin can be the consequence of the retreat of the subducting Adriatic plate from the orogenic front, caused by sub-lithosphere mantle processes that seismic anisotropy can help to decipher. We use data recorded by the RETREAT temporary array consisting of 35 stations complemented by data of permanent INGV observatories. Currently, 18-months of data are available from some stations, representing half of the passive experiment duration. We detect many examples of core-refracted shear-wave splitting within the upper mantle, and observe both distinct lateral variations of anisotropic parameters and their dependence on the direction of propagation. In particular, the fast shear-wave polarization changes from slab-perpendicular to slab-parallel along the Apennines chain. There is also a distinct change in the anisotropic signals across the presumed boundary of the Tyrrhenian and Adriatic micro-plates. Variations of the splitting time delays and orientation of the fast shear waves, together with considerations on the geodynamics of the area, seem to exclude simple sub-lithosphere mantle corner flow as the only source of the observed anisotropy. Alternate models include (1) a frozen-in fabric of different lithosphere domains, and (2) complex mantle flow associated with the Plio-Pleisocene uplift and extension of Tuscany.
