We present the results of a hydrogeochemical survey of 111 springs and wells from Magra Valley, a seismic area located in northern Tuscany, Italy. This survey was aimed at defining the geochemical background and the underground fluid circulation scheme of an area currently investigated for earthquake precursory phenomena, with the final goal of identifying a suitable location for installation of a continuous automatic monitoring station for the remote control of hydrogeochemical parameters. Six springs of the project were identified suitable for the purpose, and the Equi Na-Cl-type spring emerged as the best candidate for the installation of a monitoring station.

Abstract

We present the results of a hydrogeochemical survey of 111 springs and wells from Magra Valley, a seismic area located in northern Tuscany, Italy. This survey was aimed at defining the geochemical background and the underground fluid circulation scheme of an area currently investigated for earthquake precursory phenomena, with the final goal of identifying a suitable location for installation of a continuous automatic monitoring station for the remote control of hydrogeochemical parameters. Six springs of the project were identified suitable for the purpose, and the Equi Na-Cl-type spring emerged as the best candidate for the installation of a monitoring station.
