National-wide 3D elaborations
Update: 06/12/2010
Together with the detailed 3D models, some national-wide 3D
elaborations has been realized. They give the first 3D imagery of
the crustal and subcrustal-scale structure for the Italian
region.
The 3D models will be available through the Internet in a more
interactive way (this stage is currently in preparation).

Surfaces representing the Moho discontinuity (Adriatic Moho –
mesh, European + Tyrrhenian – triangulated); they derive from
the interpolation of isobath map and constraints from interpreted
CROP seismic profiles. White and yellow derricks highlight
respectively the position of the deep wells for the hydrocarbon
exploration (Italian Economic Development Ministry) and of the
wells from the Deep Sea Drilling/Ocean Drilling Project. |

Deep Sea Drilling/Ocean Drilling Project wells (yellow), deep
wells for the hydrocarbon exploration (white), Adriatic Moho
discontinuity. The points of different colors represent ipocentres
and magnitude of earthquakes (CSI – INGV). |

Stratigraphies of the deep wells for the hydrocarbon
exploration; the lines represent the base of Pliocene deposits. The
points are for the earthquake locations. |
