Stability analysis of apparent resistivity measurement in the seismically active area of Val d'Agri (southern Italy)
A magnetotelluric monitoring station has been installed in the Val d’Agri area (southern Italy), to investigate the physics underlying the generation mechanisms of the electrokinetic effect, due to rapid pore pressure changes and fluid flows near the focal area of incoming earthquakes. It is well known that the magnetotelluric method reveals variations in electrical resistivity within the Earth...
متن کاملInversion of inherited thrusts by wastewater injection induced seismicity at the Val d’Agri oilfield (Italy)
Since 2006 wastewater has been injected below the Val d'Agri Quaternary basin, the largest on-land oilfield in Europe, inducing micro-seismicity in the proximity of a high-rate injection well. In this study, we have the rare opportunity to revise a massive set of 2D/3D seismic and deep borehole data in order to investigate the relationship between the active faults that bound the basin and the ...
متن کاملSyn-thrusting polygonal normal faults exposed in the hinge of the Cingoli anticline, northern Apennines, Italy
The Cingoli arcuate anticline is part of the Apennines fold-thrust belt in Italy. The anticline nvolves sedimentary carbonate strata generally affected by syn-thrusting contractional tructures such as bed-normal pressure solution seams, folds, and reverse faults. An xception is constituted by an outcrop in the anticline hinge, where sub-horizontal arbonate and chert beds are affected by joints ...
متن کاملHydrocarbon contamination in waters and sediments of the Pertusillo freshwater reservoir, Val d’Agri, Southern Italy
In order to determine hydrocarbon contamination of drinking water in the Southern Italian region of Basilicata and to identify its source, we sampled water and subaqueous surface sediments from Lake Pertusillo, a fresh-water, highly dynamic, artificial reservoir located entirely within the largest oil field in Italy (Val d'Agri, Basilicata). Monitoring by the Basilicata Agency for Environmental...
متن کاملPremonitory spreading of seismicity over the faults’ network in southern California: Precursor Accord
[1] We establish a connection between geometry of the faults’ network in a region and seismicity preceding the strong earthquakes in the intermediate-term timescale of years. Previous studies of observed and computer-simulated seismicity demonstrated that strong earthquakes are preceded in that timescale by the rise of seismic activity in a lower magnitude range. Here, we explore a complementar...
