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

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:

• the surface faulting, along the Fleri, Fiandaca, Aci Catena and Aci Platani faults;
• the ground breaks related to slope instabilities;

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.

The dataset is an updated and an upgrade of the one associated with the paper: "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" by G. Tringali, Bella, D., Livio F., Ferrario M. F., Groppelli G., Blumetti A.M., Di Manna P., Vittori T., Guerrieri L., Porfido S., Boso D., Pettinato R., Paradiso G., Michetti A.M. (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quaint.2021.12.019).
