26 December 2018 surface ruptures along the eastern flank of Mt. Etna

<p>This dataset includes two shape files with ground breaks observed on Mt. Etna after the 26 December 2018 earthquake and aseismic creep event, in particular:</p> <ul> <li>the surface faulting, along the Fleri, Fiandaca, Aci Catena and Aci Platani faults;</li> <li>the ground breaks related to slope instabilities;</li> </ul> <p>The shape files have a database with informations on: strike, length (m), heave (i.e., horizontal displacement in cm), throw (i.e., vertical displacement in cm), strike-slip (cm), net slip displacement (cm), kinematics, slip trend and plunge from certain piercing points.</p> <p>The dataset is an updated and an upgrade of the one associated with the paper: <em>&quot;Fault rupture and aseismic creep accompanying the December 26, 2018, Mw 4.9 Fleri earthquake (Mt. Etna, Italy): Factors affecting the surface faulting in a volcano-tectonic environment&quot; </em>by G. Tringali, Bella, D., Livio F., Ferrario M.
