It., Suppl. n. 1 al Vol. 31 () CONGRESSO SGI-SIMP, Roma Studying and collecting past earthquake environmental effects to properly face future impacts: the 1783 Calabria earthquakes case study Blumetti A.M.* 1, Guerrieri L. 1, Porfido S. 2 & Michetti A.M Servizio Geologico d'italia, ISPRA, Roma. 2. Istituto per l Ambiente Marino Costiero, CNR, Napoli. 3. Università dell'isubria. Corresponding annamaria.blumetti@isprambiente.it Keywords: earthquake environmental effects, seismites, seismic hazard. Earthquake Environmental Effects (EEE) are the effects caused by an earthquake on natural environment, including surface faulting, regional uplift and subsidence, tsunamis, liquefactions, landslides and ground failure, either directly linked to the earthquake source or provoked by the ground shaking. Since EEE are a major source of seismic hazards, in addition to ground shaking, the knowledge of the characteristics and spatial distribution of EEE induced by past earthquakes will strongly improve standard seismic hazard assessments. Nowadays, a significant amount of data about EEEs is available for many earthquakes. However, available information is located in several different sources (scientific papers, historical documents, professional reports), and often difficult to access. The EEE Catalogue has been promoted with the aim to properly retrieve the available information about EEE at global level and archive it into a unique database, in order to facilitate their use for seismic hazard purposes. Its implementation has been endorsed at global level by INQUA through a WG coordinated by ISPRA - Geological Survey of Italy. The EEE Catalogue major added valueis the possibility to view the scenarios of environmental effects induced by past earthquakes and therefore the most vulnerable areas over the anthropic settlements and infrastructures exposed to this potential source of hazard. To this end, a good location accuracy becomes crucial. Typically, EEEs from recent earthquakes are mapped with good accuracy immediately after the event. Nevertheless, even for some historical earthquakes it is possible to retrieve with very good detail this information. This is the case of the seismic sequence occurred in Calabria (Southern Italy) in 1783, started with a main shock on 5th February (Intensity 11 MCS; M>7), that caused more than casualties and drastically changed the local landscape. This event was followed by other strong earthquakes in the night and during the following days. Particularly, on 6th February, a strong shock triggered in Scilla, along the cliff of the Monte Pacı, a huge rock avalanche (5 Mm3 inland and 3 Mm3 in the off shore zone), generating a disastrous tsunamis. On 7 February another catastrophic event rocked the Mesima Valley (Intensity 10.5 MCS; M = 6.7) followed by another strong event on 28 March, in the Catanzaro Straits (Io = 11 MCS, M = 7). The geological effects related to this catastrophic sequence, were studied by Sarconi of the Naples Reale Accademia and published in the Istoria, a volume complete of a large atlas of illustrations of many ground effects, such as landslides, liquefaction phenomena and rivers diverted or dammed by landslides. This last phenomenon caused the formation of numerous lakes. Cotecchia dedicated a monography to The geomorphogenetic crisis triggered by the 1783 earthquakes. These Authors studied the Sarconi s report together with other scientific reports and carefully described and mapped many of the coseismic landslides whose trace is still preserved in the landscape, after 200 years. They called these features seismites using the term normally used to indicate the characteristic deformation of sediments induced by the seismic shaking, to point out the importance of these features that are often ignored by seismotectonic studies. The EEE Catalogue allows us to define the impact of the EEEs related to possible future earthquake/tsunami on the present urban texture, pointing out the areas characterized by largest risk. 598
