This paper reviews published geochemical and isotopic data (together with new data) on:(1)
thermal and cold springs emerging after long circulation in a regional Mesozoic carbonate …

Orogenic forelands host interactions between deformation and static or migrating fluids.
Given their accessibility and dimensions, these areas are not only historic landmarks for …

In the Tyrrhenian region of central Italy, late Quaternary fossil travertines are widespread
along two major regional structures: the Tiber Valley and the Ancona–Anzio line. The origin …

A comprehensive hydrogeochemical survey of the geothermal waters from the Nappe Zone
(Maghrebides fold-and-thrust belt) was undertaken to determine the origins of geothermal …

In the Northern Apennines, the upper crust is thinned by a set of east-dipping low-angle
normal faults (LANFs): the easternmost and more recent of these LANFs is the Altotiberina …

The Larderello geothermal field is located in the inner Northern Apennines (southern
Tuscany), an area which has been affected by extensional tectonics since the Early–Middle …

Comparison between fossil and analogue active geothermal systems permit to obtain key-
parameters to define a conceptual model of the area under exploration. The approach is …

The back arc extensional area of Tuscany is characterized by anomalously high heat flow as
a result of lithospheric thinning facilitated by locally intruded granite, which ultimately led to …

Scaly clay, deriving from the Italian argille scagliose, is a term that has been used with a
range of meanings, from stratigraphic to genetic, and across many scales of observation …

Molecular composition, CH4 isotopes and gas flux of all main terrestrial mud volcanoes and
other methane seeps in Italy are being assessed for the first time. Whereas 74% of the Italian …
