Descrizione*

Understanding how surface brittle deformation patterns of seismic areas relate to their seismogenic source(s) is crucial for seismic hazard assessment protocols and should significantly rely on deterministic geological inputs. Aiming at a better picture of the subsurface along the Pedeapenninic Front of the Northern Apennines (Italy), we built a new 3D seismotectonic model of the area between Parma and Bologna incorporating new geological surface constraints with a wealth of subsurface geological and geophysical data, in order to locate, characterise and parametrize the active and seismogenic faults that define the seismotectonic framework of the region. The investigated area extends from the mountainous internal sector of the Northern Apennines, to the south, to the flat Po Plain in the north. Adria-related Tuscan Units crop out in the axial sector and are overthrust by the allochthonous Ligurian and Epiligurian Units. Pliocene and younger units crop out along the Pedeapenninic Front. Compressive tectonics is currently on-going in the external part of the chain, with the Pedeapenninic Front and the Po Plain blind thrusts striking NW-SE. This thrust system is dissected by transverse normal and transpressive/transtensive faults. This work provides the scientific community with a 3D seismotectonic model to be used for practical purposes, such as the assessment of seismic hazard in specific areas of interest as well as scientific and educational purposes. The methodological approach used to generate this 3D model, and its associated database, also serves as an inspiring workflow for characterising active and seismogenic faults in other geological settings elsewhere, where seismogenic faults are buried and not directly accessible for field studies.
