“When looking at the maps, earthquake it took place in an area where strong ground acceleration was not expected. Under the Milan area there are several faults, and therefore the territory is no exception compared to the rest of Italy, which is at risk of seismic. However, the last earthquake most important in the area was registered in 1951 in Lodigian and had reached a magnitude of 5.4 on the scale Judger. “The scientist Lucia Luzi, director of the Milan section of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (Ingv), tries to technically explain what and why happened with yesterday’s 3.9-sense crash in Milan. “Historically, resentments from other earthquakes that occur further afield, such as the 2012 in Mirandola. Looking back over the centuries, we can see an effect similar to that of today in 1473, with the uncertainties of the case of course ”, he adds.
According to the seismologists yesterday’s is due to African plate pushing north, against European plate, divided into smaller plates like the Adriatic one that thus presses in various directions. “Consequently, in this geological context, the entire area from Piedmont to Friuli-Venezia Giulia suffers a contraction from north to south that can range from less than one millimeter per year in the Lombardy area to about two millimeters towards the area of Friuli, “recalls Carlo Doglioni, president of Ingv. So scientists tend to explain which areas are most sensitive to these phenomena. “Certainly, the most dangerous areas of the peninsula are found along theApennines; however, we cannot exclude anything. The shock in the Milanese area, which was generated directly in our subsoil, felt shorter but more intensely while the others of resentment that come from the farthest epicenter are longer in time, “adds Luzi. Corriere della Sera, in northern Italy the Institute national geophysics and volcanology discovered in the history of the past millennium 110 significant earthquakes, from Piedmont to Friuli-Venezia Giulia, from that of Brescia in 1065.
