Phantom plumes in Europe and the circum-Mediterranean region

Geological Society of America eBooks (2007)

Anorogenic magmatism of the circum-Mediterranean area (the Tyrrhenian Sea, Sardinia, Sicily Channel, and the Middle East) and of continental Europe (the French Massif Central, Eifel, the Bohemian Massif, and the Pannonian basin) has been proposed to be related to the presence of one or more mantle plumes. Such conclusions based on geochemical data and seismic tomography are not fully justified because (1) a given chemical and isotopic composition of a magma can be explained by different petrogenetic models, (2) a given petrogenetic process can produce magmas with different chemical and isotopic composition, (3) tomographic studies do not furnish unique results...

Volume unbalance on the 2016 Amatrice - Norcia (Central Italy) seismic sequence and insights on normal fault earthquake mechanism

Scientific Reports (2019)

Christian Bignami Emanuela Valerio Eugenio Carminati Carlo Doglioni Pietro Tizzani

Abstract We analyse the M w 6.5, 2016 Amatrice-Norcia (Central Italy) seismic sequence by means of InSAR, GPS, seismological and geologic data. The >1000 km 2 area affected by deformation is involving a volume of about 6000 km 3 and the relocated seismicity is widely distributed in the hangingwall of the master fault system and the conjugate antithetic faults. Noteworthy, the coseismically subsided hangingwall volume is about 0.12 km 3 , whereas the uplifted adjacent volumes uplifted only 0.016 km 3 . Therefore, the subsided volume was about 7.5 times larger than the uplifted one. The coseismic motion requires equivalent volume at depth absorbing the hangingwall downward movement. This unbalance regularly occurs in normal fault-related earthquakes and can be inferred as a significant contribution to coseismic strain accomodated by a stress-drop driven collapse of precursory dilatancy. The vertical coseismic displacement is in fact larger than the horizontal component, consistent with the vertical orientation of the maximum lithostatic stress tensor.
