    Description: Nell’ambito delle attività di monitoraggio sismico che l’INGV effettua in collaborazione con il Dipartimento della Protezione Civile Nazionale (DPC) e del progetto europeo NERIES (sottoprogetto NA6), l’INGV ha installato nello Ionio Meridionale, sulla piana batiale che si apre ai piedi della scarpata ibleo-maltese, tre stazioni sismiche da fondo mare (OBS). Esse sono equipaggiate con un sismometro a banda larga (Nanometrics Trillium 120p) e con un sensore differenziale di pressione (Cox-Webb DPG), in grado di rilevare variazioni di 0,1 mm su una colonna d’acqua di 6000m, in un intervallo di frequenze tra 300s e 2 Hz. Le stazioni utilizzate sono i primi tre OBS italiani ad effettuare una campagna di lungo periodo (maggio - ottobre 2007) nei nostri mari. Essi sono stati realizzati dal Centro Nazionale Terremoti presso l’OBS Lab di Gibilmanna nell’ambito della convenzione triennale 2004-2007 tra DPC e INGV e fanno parte del primo pool di otto strumenti attualmente operativo. L’area prescelta (Fig. 1) è di grande interesse scientifico per diversi motivi, tra i quali: i) non esistono dati sismologici sulla struttura della litosfera ionica; ii) non si conoscono il livello e le caratteristiche della sismicità dell’area, che comprende la scarpata ibleo-maltese e il prisma di accrezione dell’arco calabro; iii) infine, si vuole sperimentare il sistema di rilevamento delle onde di pressione in profondità, propedeutico al sistema di allerta tsunami che l’INGV sta progettando per il Mediterraneo in seno all’iniziativa dell’IOC dell’UNESCO, denominata “NEAMTWS” (North-East Atlantic, Mediterranean and connected seas Tsunami Warning System). L’area prescelta, distante circa 250 km dalle coste italiane (OBS A2 in Fig. 1), è idonea per la verifica di un allarme tsunami che verrà lanciato dal sistema di monitoraggio sismico mediterraneo nell’eventualità di un forte evento nelle isole ioniche della Grecia (ad es. Creta). In precedenza, dall’analisi dei segnali registrati durante la prima campagna dell’osservatorio sottomarino SN1, operativo dall’ottobre 2002 al maggio 2003 a 12 miglia della costa catanese, si era potuto osservare come la zona fosse interessata da una notevole sismicità locale. Più recentemente, grazie al forte miglioramento della Rete Sismica Nazionale, l’attività sismica della regione ionica è stata meglio caratterizzata, sia pure con elevati errori di localizzazione dovuti alla scarsa copertura delle aree marine (Fig. 2). Due degli OBS saranno probabilmente recuperati entro il mese di Ottobre 2007, mentre il terzo (OBS/A2 in Fig. 1) resterà operativo fino al 2009, per fornire una registrazione di più lungo termine della sismicità della regione e un data set più completo per lo studio della struttura litosferica. In particolare, si cercherà di valutare se la zona più esterna del prisma di accrezione dell’arco calabro e il settore meridionale della scarpata ibleo-maltese siano sismicamente attive e, se possibile, con quali modalità. Inoltre, verranno utilizzate tecniche di “receiver function” telesismiche per determinare lo spessore della crosta ionica e per delinearne la struttura interna. Infine, l’utilizzo di sensori differenziali di pressione per il rilevamento di onde di pressione a bassa frequenza consentirà di fare un ulteriore passo avanti verso la realizzazione di nuove stazioni per l’allerta tsunami che nei prossimi anni potrebbero essere installate nell’area Mediterranea. In questa presentazione verranno mostrati i primi dati acquisiti, se sarà possibile recuperare gli strumenti entro la fine del mese di Ottobre 2007.

    Description: On 29 June 1170 a large earthquake hit a vast area in the Near Eastern Mediterranean, comprising the present-day territories of western Syria, central southern Turkey, and Lebanon. Although this was one of the strongest seismic events ever to hit Syria, so far no in-depth or specific studies have been available. Furthermore, the seismological literature (from 1979 until 2000) only elaborated a partial summary of it, mainly based solely on Arabic sources. The major effects area was very partial, making the derived seismic parameters unreliable. This earthquake is in actual fact one of the most highly documented events of the medieval Mediterranean. This is due to both the particular historical period in which it had occurred (between the second and the third Crusades) and the presence of the Latin states in the territory of Syria. Some 50 historical sources, written in eight different languages, have been analyzed: Latin (major contributions), Arabic, Syriac, Armenian, Greek, Hebrew, Vulgar French, and Italian. A critical analysis of this extraordinary body of historical information has allowed us to obtain data on the effects of the earthquake at 29 locations, 16 of which were unknown in the previous scientific literature. As regards the seismic dynamics, this study has set itself the question of whether there was just one or more than one strong earthquake. In the former case, the parameters (Me 7.7 ± 0.22, epicenter, and fault length 126.2 km) were calculated. Some hypotheses are outlined concerning the seismogenic zones involved.

    Description: A modelling of the observed macroseismic intensity of historical and instrumental earthquakes in southern Spain is proposed, with the aim of determining the macroseismic parameters for seismic hazard evaluation in a region in which the characterization of intensity distribution of seismic events shows different levels of difficulty referable to the complex faults system of the area in study. The adopted procedure allows an analytical determination of epicenters and principal attenuation directions of earthquakes with a double level of verification with reference to the maximum shaking area and structural lineaments of the region, respectively. The analyses, carried out on a suitable number of events, highlight, therefore, some elements for a preliminary characterization of a seismic zonation on the basis of the consistency between seismic intensity distribution of earthquakes and corresponding structural framework.

    Description: Most of the ancient town of Tindari (NE, Sicily) was settled on a plateau the most surficial layer of which was made of unconsolidated material. Ongoing excavations at the archaeological site at Tindari uncovered a large portion of the decumanus which suffered deformations preliminarily assigned to coseismic effects. An analysis of the local dynamic response through the simulation of strong seismic shaking to the bedrock and modelling of spectral ratios of the bedrock-soft soil was carried out to verify the susceptibility of superficial terrains of the promontory to coseismic deformations. To perform this simulation the finite element method (FEM) was used. Four accelerometric recordings of three earthquakes of medium-high magnitude, recorded on rocky sites, were chosen to simulate the seismic shaking, using a constitutive law for the materials composing the promontory layers both of linear-elastic type and of elastoplastic type. The analysis of the linear-elastic field allowed the definition of the frequencies for which the spectral ratios of the accelerations recorded the highest amplifications; in particular the frequency range 31.5–37.2 Hz can be combined with deformation of the paved floor of the decumanus. The analysis in the elastoplastic field highlighted the zones of promontory more susceptible to suffer plasticization process. The results show that the topmost layer of the decumanus is the most susceptible to suffer plasticization. Therefore, the performed analysis lends greater support to the hypothesis that the deformations were produced by seismic shaking.

    Description: On 10 September 2005 at 1711 LT (1511 UT) a loud boom was heard on the Ischia island. A clear seismic signal was also recorded by the seismic monitoring network of the Neapolitan volcanic areas (Ischia, Campi Flegrei, and Mount Vesuvius) and on a regional station (Mount Massico). On the basis of the seismic recordings and on acoustic phenomena reports, we relate this event to the atmospheric explosion (airburst) of a bolide about 15 km SW of Ischia at an elevation of about 11.5 km. The location has been obtained through nonlinear traveltime inversion in a realistic atmospheric model including wind effects. We show, using statistical estimators, how the traveltime pattern is due to both atmospheric winds and the bolide trajectory. Using the same reasoning we discard a human origin (supersonic jet or sea-air missile). In addition, we also propose a new algorithm for fast acoustic traveltime computation for a supersonic moving source.

    Description: An anisotropic attenuation law, based on an anisotropic characterization of intensity distribution for seismogenic zones, is proposed. This approach, that distinguishes itself for its consistency to the observed data, initially reconfigured by filtering procedures, is particularly suitable for seismic hazard evaluation.

    Description: The use of modern broadband seismometers allows the observation of dynamic and static near-field effects. In the fortunate case of the great 1994 Bolivia earthquake a 6 mm coseismic permanent offset was observed at distances of about 600 km. On the other hand no surface static displacement from moderate events has been observed yet. This is mainly due to the intrinsic difficulties in the instrument removal. In the present paper we analyze broadband waveforms from a couple of events in southern Italy, recorded at distance of 50 km, by applying the technique for instrument removal recently introduced by Zhu [2003]. We derive stable and reliable measures of very small coseismic static offset produced by moderate magnitude earthquakes. Our results, successfully tested against synthetic prediction, give permanent displacement of a few tenths of millimeters, one order of magnitude smaller than usual geodetic resolution.

    Description: For the seismic hazard evaluation of the region including the southern Calabro- Peloritanian Arc and southeastern Sicily, the determination of the macroseismic virtual intensity distributions has been carried out, characteristic of the seismogenic zones that fall within the area in study, starting with the structural framework of the region and from the analysis of the observed intensity effected through suitable filters. The macroseismic parameters, derived from such virtual distributions and used for seismic hazard evaluation, are not only a reference for eventual subsequently deeper knowledge referable to the need for a better characterization of the reference modelling, but distinguish themselves as an essential instrument for the definition of seismic hazard scenarios correlated to seismic events that take place in single seismogenic zones.

    Description: The evolution of the frictional strength along a fault at seismic slip rates (about 1 m/s) is a key factor controlling earthquake mechanics. At mantle depths, friction-induced melting and melt lubrication may influence earthquake slip and seismological data. We report on laboratory experiments designed to investigate dynamic fault strength and frictional melting processes in mantle rocks. We performed 20 experiments with Balmuccia peridotite in a high-velocity rotary shear apparatus and cylindrical samples (21.8 mm in diameter) over a wide range of normal stresses (5.4–16.1 MPa), slip rates (0.23–1.14 m/s), and displacements (1.5–71 m). During the experiments, shear stress evolved with cumulative displacement in five main stages (stages 1–5). In stage 1 (first strengthening), the coefficient of friction m increased up to 0.4–0.7 (first peak in friction). In stage 2 (abrupt firstweakening), m decreased to about 0.25–0.40. In stage 3 (gradual second strengthening), shear stress increased toward a second peak in friction (m = 0.30–0.40). In stage 4 (gradual second weakening), the shear stress decreased toward a steady state value (stage 5) with m = 0.15. Stages 1 and 2 are of too short duration to be investigated in detail with the current experimental configuration. By interrupting the experiments during stages 3, 4, and 5, microstructural (Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope) and geochemical (Electron Probe Micro-Analyzer and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy) analysis of the slipping zone suggest that second strengthening (stage 3) is associated with the production of a grain-supported melt-poor layer, while second weakening (stage 4) and steady state (stage 5) are associated with the formation of a continuous melt-rich layer with an estimated temperature up to 1780 C. Microstructures formed during the experiments were very similar to those found in natural ultramafic pseudotachylytes. By performing experiments at different normal stresses and slip rates, (1) the ‘‘thermal’’ (as it includes the thermally activated first and second weakening) slip distance to achieve steady state from the first peak in strength decreased with increasing normal stress and slip rate and (2) the steady state shear stress slightly increased with increasing normal stress and, for a given normal stress, decreased with increasing slip rate. The ratio of shear stress versus normal stress was about 0.15, well below the typical friction coefficient of rocks (0.6–0.8). The dependence of steady state shear stress with normal stress was described by means of a constitutive equation for melt lubrication. The presence of microstructures similar to those found in natural pseudotachylytes and the determination of a constitutive equation that describes the experimental data allows extrapolation of the experimental observations to natural conditions and to the study of rupture dynamics in mantle rocks.

    Description: The Non-Critical Precursory Accelerating Seismicity Theory (PAST) has been proposed recently to explain the formation of accelerating seismicity (increase of the a-value) observed before large earthquakes. In particular, it predicts that precursory accelerating seismicity should occur in the same spatiotemporal window as quiescence. In this first combined study we start by determining the spatiotemporal extent of quiescence observed prior to the 1997Mw= 6Umbria-Marche earthquake, Italy, using the RTL (Region-Time-Length) algorithm. We then show that background events located in that spatiotemporal window form a clear acceleration, as expected by the Non-Critical PAST. This result is a step forward in the understanding of precursory seismicity by relating two of the principal patterns that can precede large earthquakes.
