    Description: The CROP-11 deep seismic profile across the central Apennines, Italy, reveals a previously unknown, mid-crustal antiform here interpreted as a fault-bend fold-like structure. The seismic facies and gravity signature suggest that this structure consists of low-grade metamorphic rocks. Geomorphological, stratigraphic and tectonic evidence in the overlying shallow thrusts suggests that this structure developed in early to mid-Messinian time and grew out of sequence in late Messinian– Pliocene time. The out-of-sequence growth may reflect a taper subcriticality stage of the Apenninic thrust wedge, which induced renewed contraction in the rear.

    Description: Fresh water availability has recently become a serious concern in the Italian Apennines, as various activities rely on a predictable supply. Along the Scansano-Magliano ridge in southern Tuscany the situation is further complicated by contamination of the nearby alluvial aquifers. Aquifers locally consist of thin fractured reservoirs, generally within low-permeability formations, and it can be difficult to plan the exploitation of resources based on conventional techniques. An integrated study based on geological investigate the link between tectonics and groundwater circulation and to better define the hydrological model. After the regional identification of fault and fracture patterns, a major structure was investigated in detail to accurately map its spatial position and to understand the geometry and properties of the associated aquifer and assess its exploitation potential. The subsurface around the fault zone was clearly imaged through Ground Probing Radar, 2D and 3D resistivity tomography, and 3D shallow seismic surveys. The vertical and horizontal contacts between the different geological units of the Ligurian and Tuscan series were resolved with a high degree of spatial accuracy. 3D high-resolution geophysical imaging proved to be a very effective means for characterising small-scale fractured reservoirs.

After the regional identification of fault and fracture patterns, a major structure was investigated in detail to accurately map its spatial position and to understand the geometry and properties of the associated aquifer and assess its exploitation potential. The subsurface around the fault zone was clearly imaged using ground probing radar, two-dimensional and three-dimensional resistivity tomography, and three-dimensional shallow seismic surveys. The vertical and horizontal contacts between the different geological units of the Ligurian and Tuscan series were resolved with a high degree of spatial accuracy. Three-dimensional high-resolution geophysical imaging proved to be a very effective means of characterising small-scale fractured reservoirs.

    Description: The SDLS, established by Antarctic geoscientists in 1991, provides access to Antarctic multichannel seismic (MCS) data at SDLS library branches and via the WWW to facilitate and promote multifaceted research. Of the existing 332,000 km of Antarctic MCS data, 197,000 km are openly available, 31,000 km are being prepared, and 40,000 km are promised to achieve the goal of all due data being submitted to the library during IPY. The SDLS is currently used in several new ways that help manage biodiversity, protect the Antarctic environment and decipher paleoenvironments. Examples include: * Bioregionalisation study for CCAMLR to map geomorphic units of the seafloor and identify areas of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems, such as cold seeps, seamounts, and others;* Minimizing anthropogenic noise in the marine environment by historic study of surveying and avoiding repeated annual surveys, and by modeling of acoustic wave propagation in the Southern Ocean to estimate and minimize the effect of seismic surveys if any on marine mammals; and * Regional compilations of seismic data by Cenozoic Circum-Antarctic Stratigraphy Project (CASP) to create paleobathymetry maps of the Southern Ocean.The SDLS is a valued science-support group whose continued successes rely on proactive support by the science community.

    Description: An analysis of multichannel seismic reflection data was conducted focusing on the comparison between the Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC) and Plio-Quaternary (PQ) evolution of the eastern Sardo-Provencal and northern Algero-Balearic basins and related margins in the West Mediterranean Sea. Both basins were completely opened during the MSC and their well-defined seismic stratigraphy is very similar in the deep parts. The primary difference between these two basins is due to their different pre-MSC extensional history, including the opening age and the stretching factors. These factors influenced the occurrence of post-MSC salt tectonics on these margins.
