Abstract

As a part of a seismic prevention/prediction program, the Regional Government of Tuscany, Italy, has financially supported the setup of a monitoring network (the Geochemistry Network of Tuscany, thereinafter GNT) for studying possible geochemical precursors to seismic activity. The GNT is operating since late 2002, and currently consists of six continuous automatic stations installed in the areas of highest seismic risk of Tuscany: Garfagnana, Lunigiana, Mugello, Upper Tiber Valley and Mt. Amiata.Together with other monitoring networks of Tuscany (i.e. seismic, accelerometric and geodetic networks), the GNT is officially recognized by the Regional Government of Tuscany (Law n. 58 of 16 October 2009) as a ''reference tool for the analysis and research on seismic risk''.
