Study area: Macroarea2 Accumoli and villages - The study area is located less then 10 km far from to the epicenter of the 24 th August 2016 earthquake (M w 6.0) - It is located in the Latium Region and in the Rieti administrative zone - According to ISTAT the area includes 16 administrative villages and 682 inhabitants (ISTAT, 2013) - It is extended from the Mts of Laga to the Mts Sibillini, including part of the Tronto River valley at elevations varying from 700 up to 1750 m a.s.l..

The circular array data were processed by the fkbeamforming approach. Also in this case the fitting will be improved by considering upper modes and not only the first one.

Macroarea2 Accumoli and villages: preliminary conclusions - The Macroarea2 zone is characterized by local seismic amplification, mainly related to the alluvial deposits of the Tronto river valley - Minor amplification effects are measured somewhere in debris due to weathered rock masses, landslides or taluses - Topographic amplification effects can be supposed up to now even if numerical and instrumental data are still necessary to demonstrate and better constrain them - Both 1D and 2D conceptual models for local seismic response can be considered in the Macroarea2 zone; these models will represent the start-point for planning boreholes and DH tests as well as numerical modelling Page 37
