Abstract:
Coseismic surface faulting associated to the 6 April 2009, Mw 6.1 L'Aquila earthquake from the joint analysis of the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV) and of the Istituto Superiore per la Protezione e la Ricerca Ambientale (ISPRA) field observations.
The primary surface faulting reaches a total length of ca. 6 km and shows a ca. 3 km-long zone of continuous and consistently oriented surface ruptures in proximity of the village of Paganica, along a prominent NW-SE oriented, SW dipping normal fault. The deformation occurred in a ca. 500 m-wide zone. Secondary surface ruptures (antithetic and sympathetic) occurred along nearby faults.

INGV - ISPRA joint database - 2009 L'Aquila earthquake surface rupture - Surface faulting trace: this file displays as a line coverage the primary surface faulting associated to the 6 April 2009, Mw 6.1 L'Aquila earthquake. It is composed of multiple discrete rupture traces (mainly SW-facing free-faces and open cracks) with individual length ranging from 3 m to ca. 200 m. The traces are built based on the observation point layer, and contain information about the typology, the geometrical characteristics and the affected lithology (for this latter field attribute see Pucci et al., JoM 2015 doi:10.1080/17445647.2014.927128).
