Our new seismic and gravity data enabled a high-resolution passive geophysical imaging study, and constrained the structure and physical properties of the Ivrea Geophysical Body along the Val Sesia profile. The structure fits well the local and regional geology, the densities and velocities fit well the rock’s properties in situ. What else? The shallowest portion of the discontinuity appears to be relatively sharp (ca. 400-600 m transition thickness). For details, see our recent Frontiers in Earth Sciences paper, lead by Matteo Scarponi. What’s next? Active geophysical results… (some patience, please).
