    Description: Morphologic data for 147 cinder cones in southern Guatemala andwestern El Salvador are comparedwith data from the San Francisco volcanic field, Arizona (USA), Cima volcanic field, California (USA), Michoácan–Guanajuato volcanic field, Mexico, and the Lamongan volcanic field, East Java. The Guatemala cones have an average height of 110+/-50 m, an average basal diameter of 660+/-230 m and an average top diameter of 180+/-150 m. The generalmorphology of these cones can be described by their average cone angle of slope (24+/-7), average heightto- radius ratio (0.33+/-0.09) and their flatness (0.24+/-0.18). Although the mean values for the Guatemalan cones are similar to those for other volcanic fields (e.g., San Francisco volcanic field, Arizona; Cima volcanic field, California; Michoácan–Guanajuato volcanic field, Mexico; and Lamongan volcanic field, East Java), the range of morphologies encompasses almost all of those observed worldwide for cinder cones. Three new 40Ar/39Ar age dates are combined with 19 previously published dates for cones in Guatemala and El Salvador. There is no indication that the morphologies of these cones have changed over the last 500–1000 ka. Furthermore, a re-analysis of published data for other volcanic fields suggests that only in the Cima volcanic field (of those studied) is there clear evidence of degradation with age. Preliminary results of a numerical model of cinder cone growth are used to show that the range of morphologies observed in the Guatemalan cinder cones could all be primary, that is, due to processes occurring at the time of eruption.

    Description: The outermost, NE-verging fronts of the Northern Apennines (Italy) are overlain by a thick syntectonic sedimentary wedge filling up the basin beneath the Po Plain. Due to fast sedimentation rates and comparatively low tectonic rates, the fronts are generally buried. Evidence for their activity includes scattered historical and instrumental earthquakes and drainage anomalies controlled by growing buried anticlines. The largest earthquakes, up to Mw 5.8, are associated with active compression with a GPS-documented shortening rate 〈1 mm/a. We used geological, structural and morphotectonic data to draw a N-S–striking section between Bologna and Ferrara, aimed at analyzing whether and how the deformation is partitioned among the frontal thrusts of the Northern Apennines and identifying the potential sources of damaging earthquakes. We pointed out active anticlines based on the correspondence among drainage anomalies, historical seismicity and buried ramps. We also analyzed the evolution of the Plio-Quaternary deformation by modeling in a sandbox the geometry, kinematics and growth patterns of the thrust fronts. Our results (i) confirm that some of the main Quaternary thrusts are still active and (ii) highlight the partitioning of deformation in the overlap zones. We remark that the extent and location of some of the active thrusts are compatible with the location and size of the main historical earthquakes and discuss the hypothesis that they may correspond to their causative seismogenic faults.

    Description: This paper presents the interpretation of a set of seismic reflection profiles, crossing the Auletta, Diano and Agri basins, in the axial zone of the Southern Apennines. Seismic data reveal that the genesis and evolution of the investigated basins have been controlled possibly since Late Pliocene by a system of NW-SE trending, normal faults, bordering the basins, and related to SW-NE extension, still active in this region, as indicated by seismological (earthquake focal mechanisms), geological (stress indicators, active fault patterns) and geodetic data.

    Description: Kinematics of mountain belts is often very difficult to decipher. Main problems consist in the linkage between different stages of deformation which define the chain building, their significance in the context of lithospheric evolution dominate by plate collision and the interaction with previous structures recorded in the rocks. Also, the overprinting of structures developing later with respect to the chain building may further makes complicate the way to unravel the tectonic evolution of the wedge. In Sicily belt, located in the Central Mediterranean, the regional pattern and the tectonic evolution are described using structural analysis of small-scale structures in selected outcrops. The geometric differences existing between some types of structures within the belt allow to delineate the timing of deformations during chain building.

    Description: La zona di faglia Ravne è situata in un area di interazione fra due sistemi regionali di faglie con differente cinematica, entrambi collegati alla convergenza fra Adria e Eurasia: le faglie dinariche orientate NW-SE e le faglie del Sud-alpino orientate E-W. L’analisi di dati di geologia strutturale e di due sequenze sismiche recenti che hanno colpito l’area, ci permette di proporre un modello sismotettonico per la faglia di Ravne, che è stata interessata da diverse fasi tettoniche. La geometria originale e la storia evolutiva della zona di faglia svolgono un ruolo cruciale nella distribuzione recente dell’attività sismica e del potenziale sismogenetico dell’intera struttura. Infatti, la configurazione attuale della faglia Ravne, caratterizzata da fagliazione trascorrente su piani ad alto angolo a profondità crostali, è il risultato dell’iniziale geometria di un thrust orientato NW-SE e avente immersione verso NE, e della sua interazione con i piani di thrust diretti essenzialmente E-W. Partendo dai dati raccolti e tenendo in considerazione sia il quadro geodinamico che le relazioni empiriche, proponiamo tre possibili scenari con relativi potenziali sismogenetici per la possibile futura attività della faglia di Ravne.

    Description: We investigated quantitatively the propagation of a reactivated strike-slip fault through a sedimentary cover. To this end we prepared five simplified analogue models that reproduce a chain with its frontal allochtonous wedge overrunning the foreland. The foreland/ chain deformation follows the reactivation of an inherited strike-slip fault cutting the foreland domain. The observation and quantification of the effects of this reactivation, in particular on the orogenic wedge front, provide new insight on the evolution of this type of tectonic setting. We placed special emphasis on quantifying the structural features observed in the models to (1) interpret the kinematics of the reactivated shear zone, and (2) put forward hypotheses on areas indirectly affected by the reactivated fault. The interpretation of the models was based on an integrated analysis of surface and subsurface data. The results show that the geological setting is strongly influenced by the presence of a reactivated preexisting lineament, that ultimately controls the development and pattern of newly-formed faults. Finally, we present and discuss two natural examples (in Italy Molise-Gondola shear zone, Southern Apennines, and Scicli-Ragusa line, Sicily) in view of the modeling results.

    Description: Southern Apulia (Adriatic foreland, Italy), has long been considered a “stable area” lying in between two active orogens, but in fact its tectonic framework is poorly known. To learn more about this topic, we carried out an original structural analysis on Pleistocene deposits. The results indicate that southern Apulia has been affected by mild but discernible brittle deformation throughout the Middle and Late Pleistocene. Joints prevail, whereas faults are rare and all characterized by small displacement. Horizontal extension dominates throughout the entire study area; the SW-NE to SSW-NNE direction is the most widespread. WNW-ESE extension prevails in the Adriatic side portion of the study area, but the dispersion of the measured plane directions is high, suggesting that the local strain field is not characterized by a strongly predominant trend. A Middle and Late Pleistocene, SW-NE to SSW-NNE– oriented maximum extension is not surprising for the study area, as it is compatible with most of the available geodynamic models, whereas the different state of deformation affecting the Adriatic side of the study area requires further investigations. We tentatively interpreted this anomaly as reflecting some regional variation of the general geodynamic frame, for instance as the farthest evidence of ongoing compressional deformation across the W-verging Albanide-Hellenide foldand- thrust belt.

    Description: We conducted geophysical–geochemical measurements on a ∼2 kmN–S profile cutting across the Pernicana Fault, one of the most active tectonic features on the NE flank of Mt. Etna. The profile passes from the unstable E flank of the volcano (to the south) to the stable N flank and significant fluctuations in electrical resistivity, self-potential, and soil gas emissions (CO2, Rn and Th) are found. The detailed multidisciplinary analysis reveals a complex interplay between the structural setting, uprising hydrothermal fluids, meteoric fluids percolating downwards, ground permeability, and surface topography. In particular, the recovered fluid circulation model highlights that the southern sector is heavily fractured and faulted, allowing the formation of convective hydrothermal cells. Although the existence of a hydrothermal system in a volcanic area does not surprise, these results have great implications in terms of flank dynamics at Mt. Etna. Indeed, the hydrothermal activity, interacting with the Pernicana Fault activity, could enhance the flank instability. Our approach should be further extended along the full extent of the boundary between the stable and unstable sectors of Etna for a better evaluation of the geohazard in this active tectonic area.

    Description: L’isola d’Ischia, ubicata nel Golfo di Napoli, è formata da rocce vulcaniche di età compresa tra 150.000 anni e l’attuale; ultima eruzione 1301-1302. Durante questo periodo l’attività eruttiva è stata suddivisa in un ciclo antico e un ciclo recente la cui transizione è segnata dal Tufo Verde dell’Epomeo (55.000 anni), prodotto da un’eruzione ignimbritica accompagnata dal collasso calderico le cui dimensioni risultano approssimativamente di 10x7km2. L’ipotesi della risorgenza della parte centrale dell’isola, condivisa da diversi autori, prevede in generale una variazione di volume di un corpo magmatico superficiale. Viene qui proposto un meccanismo di risorgenza generato dall’intrusione di un laccolite del diametro di circa 10 Km, fino a circa 1 km di profondità. E’ stato utilizzato un modello di deformazione della crosta caratterizzato da due diverse fasi: bending e sollevamento a pistone del piano calderico, con un’evoluzione che prevede fratture nelle rocce di copertura e ulteriore risalita del blocco centrale lungo piani sub verticali corrispondenti al valore massimo degli sforzi di taglio. Questi rappresentano le faglie ai bordi dell’Epomeo responsabili della sismicità dell’isola (es. terremoto del 1883). Il modello proposto, vincolato dai dati geologici, geofisici e geochimici, imposti nelle condizioni al contorno nella soluzione al problema delle deformazioni del suolo, è coerente con le diverse fasi di risorgenza della caldera e dell’attività eruttiva, nonché con l’entità del sollevamento del Monte Epomeo.
