Morphologically-different deposits of thermal travertines are known worldwide, but what factors controlled their morphology, volume, and growth for tens of thousands of years is …
Springs sustain groundwater-dependent ecosystems and provide freshwater for human use. Springs often occur because faults modify groundwater flow pathways leading to discharge …
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 …
Coexistence of thermal springs, travertine deposits and tectonic activity is a recurring feature for most geothermal areas. Although such a certainty, their relationships are debated mainly …
An enigmatic, c. 2km-long and 15m-high travertine ridge, the Colle Fiorito ridge, occurs in the northwestern sector of the Tivoli travertine plateau, central Italy. The main questions …
Studying travertine deposits and the network of banded calcite veins that form their roots in the substratum can place important constraints on neotectonic activity and the …

Banded Ca‐carbonate veins in travertine deposits are efficient recorders of the compositional fluctuations of geothermal fluids flowing (or flowed) from deep reservoirs up to …

Active faults within the southern Apennines fold-and-thrust belt modulate the present-day upwelling of hydrothermal fluids at surface. In the Monte Alpi area, we investigated the …
Travertine deposits have long been considered as powerful tools for investigating neotectonics and reconstructing palaeoseismic events. We document, for the first time, the …
