Questa frequenza definisce due regioni spettrali: ƒ > ƒm e ƒ < ƒm. Nella prima regione spettrale il rumore complessivo non viene discriminato dalle misure assolute perché si colloca al di fuori della banda delle misure assolute stesse, nella seconda regione spettrale le misure assolute consentono di eliminare, entro certi limiti, le varie derive introdotte dalla catena strumentale. Un terzo segmento spettrale, di grande interesse dal punto di vista del rumore, si colloca nella banda delle pulsazioni magnetosferiche (0.001 Hz – 1 Hz). In questa banda giace il ginocchio che separa il rumore bianco da quello colorato. In questa nota si pongono in evidenza soprattutto le componenti del rumore che non vengono discriminate dalle misure assolute.283 127 - PublicationOpen AccessA multiparametric-multilayer comparison of the preparation phase of two geophysical events in the Tonga-Kermadec subduction zone: the 2019 M7.2 Kermadec earthquake and 2022 Hunga Ha'apai eruption(2023-09-27)
; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; The Tonga-Kermadec subduction zone represents one of the most active areas from both seismic and volcanic points of view. Recently, two planetary-scale geophysical events took place there: the 2019 M7.2 earthquake (EQ) with the epicentre in Kermadec Islands (New Zealand) and the astonishing 2022 eruption of Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai (HTHH) volcano. Based on the Lithosphere-Atmosphere- Ionosphere Coupling (LAIC) models, we analysed the three geolayers with a multiparametric approach to detect any effect on the occasion of the two events, through a comparison aimed at identifying the physics processes that interested phenomena of different nature but in the same tectonic context. For the lithosphere, we conducted a seismic analysis of the sequence culminating with themain shock in Kermadec Islands and the sequence of EQs preceding the HTHH volcanic eruption, in both cases considering the magnitude attributed to the released energy in the lithosphere within the respective Dobrovolsky area. Moving to the above atmosphere, the attention was focused on the parameters—gases, temperature, pressure—possibly influenced by the preparation or the occurrence of the events. Finally, the ionosphere was examined by means of ground and satellite observations, including also magnetic and electric field, finding some interesting anomalous signals in both case studies, in a wide range of temporal and spatial scales. The joint study of the effects seen before, during and after the two events enabled us to clarify the LAIC in this complex context. The observed similarities in the effects of the two geophysical events can be explained by their slightly different manifestations of releasing substantial energy resulting from a shared geodynamic origin. This origin arises from the thermodynamic interplay between a rigid lithosphere and a softer asthenosphere within the Kermadec-Tonga subduction zone, which forms the underlying tectonic context.188 30 - PublicationOpen AccessTectonomagnetic and VLF electromagnetic signals in Central Italy(2004)
; ; ; ; ; ;Meloni, A.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Di Mauro, D.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Lepidi, S.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Mele, G.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Palangio, P.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia; ; ; ; Tectonomagnetic field observations from absolute magnetic field level measurements were undertaken in Central Italy in an area extending between latitude 41°N and 43°N and between longitude 13°E and 15°E. Moreover,natural electromagnetic signals from a system of two VLF search coil wide-band antennas were collected at the geomagnetic observatory of L Aquila (42º23'N, 13º19'E). The analysis of these data allowed the investigation of the electromagnetic properties of the study area at different time and spatial lengthscales. Tectonomagnetic field observations were obtained comparing data simultaneously recorded at three magnetometer stations using L'Aquila Observatory as a reference for differentiation. We report on the time evolution of magnetic and electromagnetic indicators related to local and regional seismic activity.263 207 - PublicationOpen AccessOn the validation of K index values at Italian geomagnetic observatories(2020)
; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Local K index and the consequent global Kp index are well established three-hour range indices used to characterize the geomagnetic activity. K index is one of the parameters which INTERMAGNET observatories can provide and it’s widely used since several decades, although many other activity indices have been proposed in the meanwhile. The method for determining the K values has to be the same for all observatories. INTERMAGNET consortium recommends the use of one of the 4 methods endorsed by the International Service of Geomagnetic Indices ( ISGI) in close cooperation and agreement with the ad-hoc working group of International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (IAGA). INTERMAGNET provides the software code KASM, designed for an automatic calculation of K index according to the Adaptive Smoothed method. K values should be independent on the local dynamic response, therefore for their determination each observatory has its own specific scale regulated by the L9 lower limit, which represents the main input parameter for KASM. The determination of an appropriate L9 value for any geomagnetic observatory is then fundamental. In this work we statistically analyze the K values estimated by means of KASM code for the Italian geomagnetic observatories of Duronia (corrected geomagnetic latitude λ~36° N) and Lampedusa (λ~28° N) comparing them with the German observatories of Wingst and Niemegk. Our comparative analysis is finalized to establish the best estimation of the L9 lower limit for these two stations. A comparison of L9 lower limits found for the Italian observatories with results from a previous empirical method was also applied and used to verify the consistency and reliability of our outcomes.544 56 - PublicationOpen AccessUpdate on monitoring of magnetic and electromagnetic tectonic signals in Central Italy(2007-02)

A system of two VLF search coil wide-band antennas, working in two different frequency bands, at the L’Aquila Observatory, monitors possible electromagnetic effects related to seismic events occurring in Central Italy. Absolute magnetic field observations and VLF signals have been collected for several years. In particular the tectono-magnetic network started its operations in 1989. In this paper we report on the time variation of above mentioned data for the most recent years 2002 and 2003, also in connection with older measurements time series; we also report on seismic activity recorded in this area by the national seismic network. In the above mentioned time interval, no strong earthquake activity was recorded, and at the same time no clear evidence for magnetic or electromagnetic signals related to seismic events was found.436 520 - PublicationRestrictedGeomagnetic Observatories in Antarctica; State of the Art and a Perspective View in the Global and Regional Frameworks(2008-11)

The field is generated in the Earth’s core and can be measured at its surface. It shows mainly a typical dipolar profile with the dipole axis roughly parallel to the Earth’s rotation axis (tilting about 12°). At low latitudes the field reaches its minimum, while its maximum intensity is observable in polar regions, reaching there almost three times its equatorial value. The region around the Earth where the geomagnetic field extends is known as the Earth’s magnetosphere. This region contains a very low density gas of electrically charged particles and is the space around the Earth where many electric and magnetic phenomena happen.170 27 - PublicationOpen AccessPreliminary results from the first geomagnetic deep sounding in the western sector of the anti atlas region, southern Morocco(2008)
; ; ; ; ;Di Mauro, D.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Ramdani, F.; Institute Scientifique, Rabat ;Fois, M.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Alfonsi, L.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia; ; ; An array of vector magnetometers was temporarily installed in the Western sector of the Anti Atlas chain, Morocco in the frame of the Geomagnetic Depth Sounding (GDS) technique. As a fruitful collaboration between Italy and Morocco, the joint project “Terremagnet”, funded by the Italian Ministry of the Foreign Affair, was aimed to local observations of the earth’s magnetic field in order to define electric conductivity horizontal and vertical contrasts in a tectonic active region. The analysis in time and frequency-domain for tests on the induced EM field dimension, computations of single site and coupled site Transfer Functions (TFs) and induction vectors configuration are shown. Recorded data are compared to Averroes geomagnetic observatory (Morocco) (IAGA code: AVE, lat. 33° 17’ 53” N, long. 7° 24’ 48” W, altitude: 230 m a.s.l.). The preliminary results from Morocco are really encouraging and pointed out good data samplings that will allow shedding up light on the tectonic setting of this peculiar region of the Anti-Atlas.166 474 - PublicationOpen AccessTerra Nova Bay, Antarctica, Geomagnetic observatory, magnetic observations results, 2001-2002, 2002-2003(2007)

Since the Observatory was located very close to the Base, where the growing human activity gave rise to an increased artificial electromagnetic noise, during this campaign, the Observatory has been moved to a new site, called OASI, about 1 km away from the old site. In austral summer 2001-2002, geomagnetic absolute measurements have been performed at both sites, in order to evaluate possible spatial gradients between them. Conversely, the variometer measurements have been carried out only at the new site.174 377 - PublicationOpen AccessEvolution of magnetotelluric, total magnetic field, and VLF field parameters in Central Italy: relations to local seismic activity(2001-04)
; ; ; ; ; ; ;Meloni, A.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Di Mauro, D.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Mele, G.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Palangio, P.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Ernst, T.; Institute of Geophysics, Warszawa, Poland ;Teisseyre, R.; Institute of Geophysics, Warszawa, Poland; ; ; ; ; Magnetotelluric data were collected at Collemeluccio (41.72°N, 14.37°E) in Central Italy from summer 1991 to spring 1998. Analyzed by means of tensor decomposition on the geoelectric potential and robust estimation on the geomagnetic field, this set of data allowed the investigation of the electric properties at different time-periods. The variation of some indicators, related to the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction, is presented here in its time evolution and compared to local and regional seismic activity. Tectonomagnetic field observations from absolute magnetic field level in Central Italy were also made on data simultaneously recorded at four magnetometer stations, using L'Aquila Geomagnetic Observatory as a reference for differentiation. Recent results gathered from a system of two VLF search coil wide-band antennas, installed in the L'Aquila Observatory, are also discussed in relation to local seismic activity.255 417 - PublicationOpen AccessEARTH'S MAGNETISM AT THE SOUTH POLE: A VIEW FROM INLAND AND COASTAL STATIONS AND FROM TEMPORARY INSTALLATIONS(2010-06-08)
; ; ; ; ;Di Mauro, D.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Cafarella, L.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia ;Chambodut, A.; Ecole et Observatoire des Sciences de la Terre – Strasburg, France ;Lepidi, S.; Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione Roma2, Roma, Italia; ; ; Contributions to the knowledge of the Earth’s magnetism from polar regions is extremely important to understand the planetary phenomena which occur both below and above the Earth’s surface. At those areas the Earth’s magnetic field is stronger and the spatial and temporal changes are enhanced. At the same time polar regions are areas scarcely covered by observations for the adverse environmental conditions. We report the experience gained in years of management and maintenance of permanent stations (Mario Zucchelli, Dumont d’Urville (Victoria Land) and Concordia stations, Dome C) as well as temporary installations (Talos Dome) in Antarctica, showing how different acquisition systems, analysis and interpretation of data allow the scientific communities to contribute to originating important theories, models and results.272 172
