The survey and mapping of sand-boil landforms related to the Emilia 2012 earthquakes: preliminary results [PDF]
Sand boils, which are also known as sand blows or sand volcanoes, are among the most common superficial effects induced by high-magnitude earthquakes. These generally occur in or close to alluvial plains when a strong earthquake (M >5) strikes on a ...

A comparison between bivariate and multivariate methods to assess susceptibility to liquefaction-related coseismic surface effects in the Po Plain (Northern Italy) [PDF]
The two main events occurred during the 2012 seismic sequence on the Po Plain in Northern Italy (May 20 Mw 5.9 and May 29 Mw 5.8) induced widespread coseismic surface effects (CSEs), mostly liquefaction phenomena, which caused severe damages.

Ground effects induced by the 2012 seismic sequence in Emilia: implications for seismic hazard assessment in the Po Plain [PDF]
Since May 16, 2012, a seismic sequence has affected a wide portion of the Emilia Region (northern Italy), chiefly for the Modena and Ferrara Provinces. The first mainshock (Ml 5.9; focal depth, ca.

Electrical resistivity tomography for studying liquefaction induced by the May 2012 Emilia-Romagna earthquake (Mw = 6.1, northern Italy) [PDF]
This work shows the result of an electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) survey carried out for imaging and characterizing the shallow subsurface affected by the coseismic effects of the Mw = 6.1 Emilia-Romagna (northern Italy) earthquake that occurred ...
