Understanding the behavior of fluids in seismically active faults and their chemical-physical
(dis) equilibrium with the host rock is important to understand the role of fluids upon …

This paper represents the result of the IAEG C35 Commission “Monitoring methods and
approaches in engineering geology applications” workgroup aimed to describe a general …

The 2009 L'Aquila sequence activated a normal fault system 50 km long in the Central
Apennines, composed of two main NW-trending faults 12–16 km long: the main high angle …

We studied the anatomy of the fault system where the 2009 L'Aquila earthquake (MW 6.1)
nucleated by means of~ 64 k high‐precision earthquake locations spanning 1 year. Data …

Most earthquake early warning systems (EEWS) developed so far are conceived as either
'regionaL '(network-based) or 'on-site'(stand-alone) systems. The recent implementation of …

The Abruzzo earthquake hit the city of L'Aquila and its surroundings on the April 6, 2009.
The aim of this study is to analyze the technical features of unreinforced masonry (URM) …

On 6 April (01: 32 UTC) 2009 a MW 6.1 normal faulting earthquake struck the axial area of
the Abruzzo region in central Italy. We study the geometry of fault segments using high …

The central Apennines are a fold-thrust belt currently affected by post-orogenic extensional
seismicity. To constrain the influence that the inherited thrust-related structures exert on the …

We describe a set of seismological observations of the foreshock sequence preceding the 6
April 2009 Mw 6.3 L'Aquila earthquake. The dense configuration of the seismic network in …

The paper presents a predictive model for assessing the seismic vulnerability of small
historic centres. The model, developed in the framing of other similar methods proposed in …
