Dataset of seismic ambient vibrations from the quaternary Norcia basin (central Italy).

ABSTRACT: Central Italy was affected by a long seismic sequence in 2016 and 2017, characterized by five main-shocks with Mw>5.0. The Mw 6.5 mainshock occurred on 30 October 2016 close to the town of Norcia, located in the intra-Apennine Norcia basin. Different degrees of damages were observed during this seismic crisis, caused by a variable seismic shaking. This was also due to important 1D and 2D variation of Quaternary fluvio-lacustrine sediments infilling the basin. Following such considerations, a new geophysical dataset of seismic vibration measurements was acquired in the study area during the period April 2017-November 2019. We collected mainly single-seismic station noise data, to infer the distribution of resonance frequency (f₀) of the basin. A total of 60 sites were measured to
