In this work, the reduction of seismic hazard in eastern Sicily is addressed by both studying the fundamental resonant frequency of strategic buildings through low cost geophysical investigation techniques, and exploring a practical approach to earthquake early warning ...

Los objetivos de esta Tesis Doctoral se basan en dos pilares fundamentales: i) obtención de un modelo de velocidad realista y tridimensional de la región que comprende el volcán Mt. Etna, el archipiélago de las Islas Eolias y las áreas circundantes, a partir de la inver...

Results of passive seismic surveys, in terms of both amplification and polarization effects in a section of the Tremestieri Etneo Fault (Sicily Eastern center - Catania) are discussed. For the purpose, velocimetric and accelerometric records of seismic ambient noise wer...

La actividad volcánica en nuestro planeta genera un gran impacto económico y social. Actualmente la monitorización de volcanes se fundamenta principalmente en el análisis de la actividad sísmica de los eventos considerados precursores de erupciones. Un sistema automátic...
