We investigate a large geodetic dataset of InSAR and GPS measurements to determine the source parameters for the three mainshocks of the 2016 Central Italy earthquake sequence on 24th August, 26th and 30th October (M 6.1, 5.9 and 6.5, respectively). Our preferred model is consistent with the activation of four main coseismic asperities belonging to the SW-dipping normal fault system associated with the Mt. Gorzano-Mt. Vettore-Mt. Bove (MGVB) alignment.
We investigate the ground deformation and source geometry of the 2016 Amatrice earthquake (Central Italy) by exploiting ALOS2 and Sentinel-1 coseismic differential interferometric synthetic aperture radar (DInSAR) measurements. They reveal two NNW-SSE striking surface deformation lobes, which could be the effect of two distinct faults or the rupture propagation of a single fault. We examine both cases through a single and a double dislocation planar source.
