- PublicationOpen AccessApplication of the Post-Widder Laplace inversion algorithm to postseismic rebound models(2006-12-11)
; ; ; ; ;Cannelli, V.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia ;Melini, D.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia ;Piersanti, A.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia ;Spada, G.; Institute of Physics, University of Urbino, Italy; ; ; The computation of global postseismic rebound in a spherically symmetric, stratified, self-gravitating Earth with Maxwell viscoelastic rheology can be carried out semi-analytically with a normal-mode approach. The solution scheme usually involves the application of standard propagator techniques to the equivalent problem in the Laplace domain; to recover the temporal dependence a numerical Laplace anti-transform is required. This step involves the solution of the so-called “secular equation”, whose degree increases linearly with the detail of the stratification modeling, and whose coefficients become extremely ill-conditioned for high harmonic orders. As a result, the practically solvable models are limited to a few viscoelastic layers, and are anyway affected by severe numerical instabilities. To overcome these difficulties, alternative approaches have been explored by several authors, ranging from Runge-Kutta purely numerical integration to the evaluation of Laplace antitransform by a numerical discretization of the Bromwich integral. The Post-Widder algorithm allows the estimation of the Laplace antitransform by sampling numerically the transform on the positive real axis. This method, which has been recently applied to the computation of GIA viscoelastic Love numbers, allows to bypass completely the root-finding procedure while preserving at the same time the analytical normal-mode solution form. In this work, we apply the Post-Widder method to the computation of post-seismic rebound models. We perform a series of benchmarks to optimize the algorithm for speed while checking its stability against earlier results.180 381 - PublicationOpen AccessSignature of asthenospheric viscosity on long wavelength postseismic gravity perturbations after the 2004 Sumatra earthquake(2007-04)
; ; ; ;Cannelli, V.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia ;Melini, D.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia ;Piersanti, A.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia; ; Using a theoretical model of global postseismic deformation we computed the effect of 2004 Sumatra earthquake on the time evolution of the low degree zonal coefficients of the Earth gravity field (Jn). In fact, it is reasonable to expect that the exceptional energy release of the Sumatra event has given rise to a perturbation of the long wavelength Earth’s gravity field due to internal mass redistribution. Our analysis is performed varying asthenosphere viscosities, in order to show how the expected signature of the seismic event on the long wavelength deformation field is sensitive to mantle rheology. Low asthenospheric viscosities yield very large Jn variation rates in the first years after the event. Our results show that on the J2 time-series the postseismic effect remains comparable with the main secular trend for several years after the event if an asthenospheric viscosity of 10^18 Pa s is assumed, while for lower values the signature in the data should be even stronger. Since these short time-scale effects are not easily discernible from the available geodetic data because of large seasonal signals, we computed the expected contribution of postseismic relaxation to long term Jn trends as a function of asthenospheric viscosity. Our results show that the viscoelastic relaxation leaves a not negligible signature on the long term measured time-histories. In the forthcoming years, when geodetic data from recent missions (such as GRACE) will be available, it will be possible to establish if, after the Sumatra event, a significant deviation of Jn time series from its secular trend occurred. In this case it should be possible to infer or at least to put constrains to the mean asthenospheric viscosity that is still one of the big open issues in mantle rheology.152 222 - PublicationOpen AccessPostseismic relaxation of the 2007 Central Peru earthquake(2007-12-10)
; ; ; ;Piersanti, A.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia ;Cannelli, V.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia ;Melini, D.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia; ; We present a comprehensive modeling of coseismic and postseismic effects of the 2007 Central Peru earthquake on deformation, gravity and stress fields obtained with a semi-analytical spherical self-gravitating Earth model. We discuss the expected signature of different stratification profiles including Maxwell and Burgers rheologies and find that measurements of short-term relaxation on horizontal deformations should provide a discrimination between different rheologies. We compute the time-dependent stress transfer of the 2007 earthquake on the 1868 and 1877 seismic gaps in terms of the Coulomb Failure Function (CFF). We find significant levels of stress transfer only on the 1868 seismic gap due to its proximity to the 2007 source, even if the sign of CFF variation is dependent on the depth of the receiver plane, which is not univocally fixed by geological evidences.133 96 - PublicationRestrictedThe October 23, 2011, Van (Turkey) earthquake and its relationship with neighboring structures(2014-02)

A.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia; ; ;; ; ; ; ; The present work reports the analysis of a possible relationship due to stress transfer between the two earthquakes that hit the province of Van, Eastern Turkey, on October 23, 2011 (Mw 5 7.2) and on November 9, 2011 (Mw55.6). The surface displacement field of the mainshock has been obtained through a combined data set made up of differential interferograms from COSMO-SkyMed and ENVISAT satellites,integrated with continuous GPS recordings from the Turkish TUSAGA-AKTIF network. This allowed us to retrieve the geometry and the slip distribution of the seismic source and to compute the Coulomb Failure Function (CFF) variation on the aftershock plane, in order to assess a possible causal relationship between the two events. Our results show that the November 9 earthquake could have been triggered by the October 23 shock, with transferred stress values largely exceeding 1 bar.363 69 - PublicationRestrictedCoseismic deformation pattern of the Emilia 2012 seismic sequence imaged by Radarsat-1 interferometry(2012-10)

Following the main-shocks, more than 2,000 events were recorded by the INGV National Seismic Network (http://iside.rm.ingv.it/). During the seismic sequence, a pure compressional faulting was generated by the activation of blind thrusts of the western Ferrara Arc, thereby activating a 50 km-long stretch of this buried outer front of the northern Apennines. The focal mechanisms of the larger shocks agree with the compilation of present-day tectonic stress indicators, showing a ca. N-S oriented maximum horizontal stress in the area, i.e. oriented perpendicular to the main structural trends. Most of the seismic sequence was confined between 1 and 12 km depth, above the local basal detachment of the outer thrust front of the northern Apennines. The surface displacement pattern, associated with the mainshocks and some following minor events (some of which above M 5.0), has been measured by applying Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) technique to a pair of C-Band Radarsat-1 data. The coseismic movements detected overall the epicentral region have been here used as input information for the source inversion model.486 42 - PublicationOpen AccessImpact of Sumatra earthquake on CMB topography and core ellipticity(2006-11)

; ; ; ;Cannelli, V.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia ;Melini, D.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia ;Piersanti, A.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma1, Roma, Italia; ; The identification of a source model for the catastrophic 1908 December 28 Messina earth- quake (Mw = 7.2) has been the subject of many papers in the last decades. Several authors proposed different models on the basis of seismological, macroseismic and geodetic data sets; among these models, remarkable differences exist with regard to almost all parameters. We selected a subset of six models among those most cited in literature and used them to model the post-seismic sea level variation recorded at the tide gauge station of Messina (until 1923), to attempt an independent discrimination among them. For each model, we assumed a simple rheological structure and carried out a direct-search inversion of upper crust thickness and lower crust viscosity to fit the post-seismic sea level signal. This approach enabled us to iden- tify a class of fault geometries which is consistent with the post-seismic signal at the Messina tide gauge and with the known structural and rheological features of the Messina strait418 233 - PublicationOpen AccessThe Pollino 2012 seismic sequence: clues from continuous radon monitoring(2016)
; ; ; ; ; The 2012 Pollino (Calabria, Italy) seismic sequence, culminating in the Mw 5.2 earthquake of 25 October 2012, is investigated, exploiting data collected during a long-term continuous radon monitoring experiment performed in the epicentral area from late 2011 to the end of 2014. We analyse data collected both using a phenomenological approach based on quantitative evidence and a purely numerical analysis including the following: (i) correlation and cross-correlation investigations; (ii) an original approach aimed at limiting the impact of meteorological parameters variations on the interpretation of measured radon levels; (iii) a change point analysis; (iv) the implementation of an original detection algorithm aimed at highlighting the connections between radon emission variations and major seismic events occurrence. Results from both approaches suggest that radon monitoring stations can be subject to massive site effects, especially regarding rainfall, making data interpretation harder. The availability of long-term continuous measurements is crucial to precisely assess those effects. Nevertheless, statistical analysis shows a viable approach for quantitatively relating radon emanation variations to seismic energy release. Although much work is still needed to make radon time series analysis a robust complement to traditional seismological tools, this work has identified a characteristic variation in radon exhalation during the preparation process of large earthquakes.238 54 - PublicationOpen AccessIRON-DB: a database for the Italian Radon mOnitoring NetworkThe IRON - DB was developed in 2016 in order to support operation of IRON, the Italian Radon mOnitoring Network. IRON is a network of permanent, continuously operating, real - time radon monitoring stations, developed and implemented in Italy in the past 7 yea rs [Cannelli et al., submitted]. The network represents, at present, the first Italian regional - scale infrastructure for a systematic and continuous monitoring of radon emissions (see for example [Piersanti et al., 2015; Cannelli et al., 2016; Piersanti et al., 2016]). IRON presently consists of 19 stations, mainly located in the Central - Southern Apennines, but marginally covering the whole Italian peninsula (Figure 1). Owing to the evolution of IRON network since 2009, in terms of instrumentations, differe nt type of installation and overall of a large number of continuous measurements, it was necessary to implement a database allowing access to all the collected data and to keep track of the evolution of the network.

The sequence in- cluded two ML >5.5 mainshocks. The first one (ML 5.9) oc- curred near the city of Finale Emilia (ca. 30 km west of Ferrara) on May 20 at 02:03:53 (UTC), and the second (ML 5.8) occurred on May 29 at 7:00:03 (UTC), about 12 km south- west of the May 20 mainshock (Figure 1), near the city of Mirandola. The seismic sequence involved an area that ex- tended in an E-W direction for more than 50 km, and in- cluded seven ML ≥5.0 events and more than 2,300 ML >1.5 events (http://iside.rm.ingv.it). The focal mechanisms of the main events [Pondrelli et al. 2012, Scognamiglio et al. 2012, this volume] consistently showed compressional kinematics with E-W oriented reverse nodal planes. This sector of the Po Plain is known as a region charac- terized by slow deformation rates due to the northwards mo- tion of the northern Apennines fold-and-thrust belt, which is buried beneath the sedimentary cover of the Po Plain [Pi- cotti and Pazzaglia 2008, Toscani et al. 2009]. Early global po- sitioning system (GPS) measurements [Serpelloni et al. 2006] and the most recent updates [Devoti et al. 2011, Bennett et al. 2012] recognized that less than 2 mm/yr of SW-NE short- ening are accommodated across this sector of the Po Plain, in agreement with other present-day stress indicators [Mon- tone et al. 2012] and known active faults [Basili et al. 2008]. In the present study, we describe the GPS data used to study the coseismic deformation related to the May 20 and 29 mainshocks, and provide preliminary models of the two seismic sources, as inverted from consensus GPS coseismic deformation fields.1516 254
