Zusammenfassung |
A seven-month collection of testimonials about the 6 April 2009 earthquake in
Aquila, Abruzzo region, Italy, was compiled into a catalogue of non-seismic
phenomena. Luminous phenomena were often reported starting about nine months
before the strong shock and continued until about five months after the
shock. A summary and list of the characteristics of these sightings was made
according to 20th century classifications and a comparison was made with the
Galli outcomes. These sightings were distributed over a large area around the
city of Aquila, with a major extension to the north, up to 50 km. Various
earthquake lights were correlated with several landscape characteristics and
the source and dynamic of the earthquake. Some preliminary considerations on
the location of the sightings suggest a correlation between electrical
discharges and asperities, while flames were mostly seen along the Aterno
Valley. |
