... of Accumoli (Fig.  1 ). This M w  6.0 earthquake occurred in the intra‐Apennine extensional fault system of Central Italy and was felt in all Central Italy, producing widespread damages and fatalities. In the following months, the area was shocked by hundreds of minor events, while on October 30 at 06...

EERI The Central Italy earthquake sequence initiated on 24 August 2016 with a moment magnitude M 6.1 event, followed by two earthquakes ( M 5.9 and M 6.5) on 26 and 30 October, caused significant damage and loss of life in the town...

... The Central Italy earthquake sequence nominally began on 24 August 2016 with a M 6.1 event on a normal fault that produced devastating effects in the town of Amatrice and several nearby villages and hamlets. A major international response was undertaken to record the effects of this disaster, including...

The maximum displacements occur along the Monte Vettore-Accumoli segment of the OAMS Thrust with values of about 10 km. The thrust can be referred to the late...
