Mud volcanoes are common in active mountain fronts. At Mt. Etna, located just between the
Apennine front in Sicily and its foredeep, there are some manifestations of mud volcanism in …

Serpentinites occur worldwide in various geological settings, such as in magma-starved
oceanic basins. Abyssal serpentinites are long-term storage for chlorine and carbon, the …

The Trecastagni Fault (TF) is an important tectonic structure in the middle-lower southern
flank of Mt. Etna volcano. It is characterised by evident morphological slopes with normal dip …

High-resolution seismic reflection, magnetic and gravity data, acquired offshore of Etna
volcano, provide a new insight to understanding the relationship between tectonics and …

Geophysical surveys are useful tools to characterize the buildings making up the cultural
heritage and to monitor the subsoil features on which they are constructed. The information …

Two small geodetic subnetworks were established in 2010 and in 2014, respectively, along
the southeastern edge of the unstable eastern flank of Mt. Etna volcano. These networks …

In an especially built-up area, such as the lower slopes of Etna volcano, the effects of
surface faulting, caused by coseismic ruptures and aseismic creep, contribute significantly to …

Stress fields may exhibit variegated patterns, especially in volcanic areas where several
processes superimpose their effects in space and time. The comprehension of such patterns …

The main magma source for eruptions on Etna (Italy) is poorly constrained. Here we use
data on the size distributions of volcanic fissures/feeder-dykes, crater cones, dyke …

In this study, we derived the first 3-DP-wave seismic attenuation images (QP) as well as new
3-DVP and VP/VS models for the crust in southeastern Sicily. We used a large data set of …
