Cover Story: In southwestern Sicily, near the seismically active Belice Valley, this multidisciplinary study analyzed links between morphostructural features and seismic processes. Open fractures observed on the ground, later anthropogenically filled, reopened after a seismic swarm. Combining seismic event distribution, satellite imagery, HVSR (Horizontal to Vertical Spectral Ratio), MASW (Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves), and ERT (Electrical Resistivity Tomography), correlations emerged between earthquakes, fracturing activity, and subsurface conditions. Grain-size and morphoscopic analyses revealed processes shaping elliptical depressions resembling liquefaction. All these features appear controlled by tectonics and influenced by quarry excavations, highlighting the interplay between seismicity, surface deformation and human impact. View this paper
