Information from surface geology, subsurface geology (boreholes, seismic reflection, and
refraction profiles), and seismicity are used to depict the geometry and the possible …

Broad geological and geophysical documentation is available on regional extensional
systems driven by low‐angle normal faults. However, little information exists about the three …

The survey and structural analysis of surface coseismic ruptures are essential tools for
characterizing seismogenic structures. In this work, a procedure to survey coseismic …

In this study we investigate the site amplification effects observed in the Gubbio plain, central
Italy. The recordings of 140 local earthquakes (1.2≤ Ml≤ 4.7) observed by two linear arrays …

Late orogenic extensional structures overprint the compressional structures of the Northern
Apennines fold and thrust belt. The Tyrrhenian Sea is the result of major continental …

Understanding fault behavior in carbonates is critical because they represent loci of
earthquake nucleation. Models of fault-slip mode generally assume:(1) seismic sliding and …

Normal faults within orogenic belts can be pre-, syn-or post-orogenic features. We studied
the Gubbio normal fault (central Italy), which is an example of a pre-orogenic fault …

Normal faults occur in a variety of geodynamic environments, both in areas of subsidence
and uplift. Normal faults may have slip rates faster or slower than regional subsidence or …

Different investigation techniques (field geology and structural analysis, geomorphology,
seismic reflection profiles and seismological data) have been used to develop images of the …

Using published cross-sections and a series of geological constraints, a 3D geological
model of an important area of the Adriatic sector of peninsular Italy—ie, the Marche region …
