Basement sliding and the formation of fault systems on Mt Etna volcano
, 2021 The influence of faulting on the eruptive mechanisms of Mt Etna has been intensively studied, especially regarding the importance of regional tectonics, magma pressure, gravitational spreading and east flank instability. Here we examine the influence of an additional process: the wholesale sliding of the Etna massif along its sloping basement.

Source model for the 2001 flank eruption of Mt. Etna volcano
Geophysical Research Letters, 2003 Using interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) we constrain the deformation sources for the July–August 2001 flank eruption of Mt. Etna volcano, Italy. InSAR data from ascending and descending passes of the ERS2 satellite reveal a pattern of deformation that cannot be explained by a dike intrusion alone.

Stress interaction between seismic and volcanic activity at Mt Etna
, 2006 International audienceMt Etna lies on the footwall of a large normal fault system, which cuts the eastern coast of Sicily and crosses the volcano eastern flank.

Creep: time‐dependent brittle deformation in rocks
, 2009 The characterization of time‐dependent brittle rock deformation is fundamental to understanding the long‐term evolution and dynamics of the Earth’s crust. The chemical influence of pore water promotes time‐dependent deformation through stress corrosion

Double-difference tomography at Mt. Etna volcano
, 2007 Double-difference tomography at Mt Etna volcano was realized by using the tomographic algorithm developped by Monteiller et al. (2005), in which the travel-time computation was performed using a finite-difference solution of the Eikonal equation ...

Mt. Etna volcano high-resolution topography: airborne LiDAR modelling validated by GPS data
, 2016 High-resolution digital topography is essential for land management and planning in any type of territory as well as the reproduction of the Earth surface in a geocoded digital format that allows several Digital Earth applications.

, 2007 We have deformed basalt from Mount Etna (Italy) in triaxial compression tests under an effective confining pressure representative of conditions under a volcanic edifice (40 MPa), and at a constant strain rate of 5 similar to 10(-6) s(-1).

Evidence of a shallow magma intrusion beneath the NE Rift system of Mt. Etna during 2013
, 2016 Continuous GPS (CGPS) data, collected at Mt. Etna between April 2012 and October 2013, clearly define inflation/deflation processes typically observed before/after an eruption onset.

Combining relative and absolute gravity measurements to enhance volcano monitoring
, 2012 To achieve a balance between uncertainty and efficiency in gravity measurements, we have investigated the applicability of combined measurements of absolute and relative gravity as a hybrid method for volcano monitoring.
