Recently, in the Northern Apennines, geophysical data have identified the Triassic Evaporites (TE, anhydrites and dolomites) as the source region of the major extensional earthquakes of the area (M~6). In order to characterize fault zone architecture... Read More about Fault zone architecture and deformation processes within evaporitic rocks in the upper crust..

Abstract: The influx of fluids into fault zones can trigger two main types of weakening process that operate over different timescales and facilitate fault movement and earthquake nucleation. Short- and long-term weakening mechanisms along faults req... Read More about Fault weakening due to CO2 degassing in the Northern Apennines: short- and long-term processes.
