The Role of Fluids in Fault Mechanics: A 16‐Year Analysis of the Irpinia Seismicity (Southern Italy)
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Fluids in the crust influence earthquake nucleation by affecting fault strength and rupture dynamics, but direct observations at seismogenic depths are rare. We study the Irpinia Fault System in Southern Italy, site of the 1980 M 6.9 earthquake, to understand how fluid overpressure, fault orientation, and regional stress control earthquake ...
