Introduction
The
Berceto
village
is
located
near
the
top
of
an
unstable
slope, characterized by periodical reactivations oftenfollowing intense meteorological events. Thesereactivations have been responsible for damages to
buildings
and
infrastructures
since
a
long
time.
The
BercetounstableslopeisreportedintheItalianLandslideInventory(IFFI)Project,partly fundedbyISPRA(ItalianInstituteforEnvironmentalProtectionandResearch).
Geophysical surveys and borehole investigationshave been recently carried out in order to obtainsubsurface data enabling a better understanding of theslopebehaviour.EightDCresistivitytomographyprofileswere recorded in the upper part of the slope andcontinuouscoreboreholesweredrilled.
Attheendoflastyear,satelliteradardatahavebeenprocessed with SqueeSAR technique, based on analgorithmdevelopedbyPolitecnicodiMilano (POLIMI)and licensed exclusively to TRE, which enables toovercometheerrors introduced intosignalphasevaluesby atmospheric artefacts, which typically affect thetraditional interferometric approach. By exploiting theESA (European SpaceAgency) ERS12 archives, surfacedisplacement data relevant to 19922000 period wereobtained.
An integrated approach based on the correlationamongtheabovedata,aimedatassessingtheriskrelatedto the landslide evolution, is still in progress; somepreliminaryresultswillbepresentedinthispaper.

SAR data processing techniques have beendeveloped and improvedbyRadarGroupofElectronicsDepartmentof thePolitecnicoofMilano (POLIMI) andafterbyTeleRilevamentoEuropa (TRE), firstspinoffofPOLIMI. TRE was granted exclusive license calledPermanent Scatterers (PS) technique, or PSInSAR(Ferrettietal.,2001).TheSqueeSARtechnique(Ferrettietal.,2011)isasecondgenerationalgorithm,anevolutionofPSInSARtechnology,thatsearchesfortargetsonthegroundthatreturnstableradarreflectionsovertimebacktothesatellite.
Aswellknown,aSARimageisacollectionofsignalscoming from different types of radar targets, eithernatural (forests, rocks, etc) or manmade (buildings,bridges,poles,etc).Thesignalrecordedbythesensorcanvaryabruptlyeven inneighborpixels,dependingonthedifferent radarsignaturesof the illuminatedobjectsandtheacquisitiongeometry.Ingeneral, imagepixelswhereInSAR data can be extracted belong to two families oftargets: pointwise targets (Permanent Scatterers, PS),wherethereflectedenergycomes fromasingleorafewconnected pixels, and Distributed Targets (DS). ADistributed Scatterer (DS) corresponds to ahomogeneous area spread over a group of pixels in aradar
image,
like
for
example
an
agricultural
field,
a
forest, a debris covered area. The characteristics of theradarreturnscomingfromallpixelscorrespondingtothe
same DS, are statistically homogeneous, i.e. theinteractionbetween the radar targetongroundand theelectromagnetic wave is almost identical and can bemodeledbythesameprobabilitydensityfunction.
While PS typically correspond to pointwisescatterers exhibiting a very high Radar Cross Section(RCS), the amplitude of the radar return of a pixelbelongingtoaDSisusuallymuchweaker,duetothelackof a dominant scatterer in the resolution cell, and ischaracterizedby lowerSNR. Indeed, iftheestimationofdisplacementrateandelevationvaluesisperformedonapixelbypixel basis across aDS, results arevery noisy.However, by averaging the signal of all the pixelsbelonging to the sameDS, it ispossible to significantlyimprove the estimation quality, obtaining SNR valuessimilartothePS,atthecostofalossofspatialresolutiondue to the averaging process.Thanks to typical remotesensing characteristic and in particular, the ability ofcoveringvastremoteareasofEarth'ssurface(fromafewto thousandsof squarekilometres)and to theabilityofestimating displacement with millimetre accuracy,SqueesAR is a very effective tool for highprecisionmonitoringofsurfacedisplacements,andcanbeappliedatdifferentscales,fromregionaltosinglebuilding.

SubsurfacestructureoftheupperBercetoslope
EightDC resistivity tomographyprofiles,with 126smartelectrodes spaced 11.5m for a total length of 1437.5meach, crossing the upper part of the Berceto slopeincluding the village were recorded. The investigationdepthwasabout250m.Accordingtothelithologyofthegeological

area,
three
geoelectric units were recognized: resistive (coherentlithologies), conductive (shaly lithologies) andintermediate (heterogeneous lithologies and/or highwatercontent).
Two resistivity profiles, together with theirgeological interpretation (Figure 5 and 2 respectively),havebeenselectedasrepresentativeofthegeologicalandstructuralframeworkoftheBercetoslope.Fromageneralpoint of view, the following sequence was recognized,from top to bottom: an upper intermediate resistivityunit (IRU), a central conductive unit (CU) and a lower

Discussionandconclusions
HypothesesabouttheevolutionoftheBercetoslopewereadvanced after integrating surface and subsurface dataandobservationswithliteraturedata.
The structural framework of the Berceto areaindicates that the upper Berceto slopewas affected bygravitational faults (Persaud and Pfiffner, 2004;UstaszewskiandPfiffner,2008).Onepossiblemechanismfor these gravitational slope processes are the deepseated gravitational slope deformations (DGSD) byDramis and SorrisoValvo (1994), recognised in severalparts of theNorthernApennines (DAmatoAvanzi and
Puccinelli,1996;
Coltorti
et
al,
2009).
The uppermost portion of the Berceto slope ischaracterized by the tectonic uplift related totranspressive tectonics; this structuremaybea relevant

factor for the development of the DGSD (Dramis andSorrisoValvo(1994).
Several gravitational faults developed close to thenorthwestern side of the antiformal stacking of theburiedMt.CaioFlysch.WithintheScabiazzaSandstonegravitational faults using preexisting discontinuities
suchas
tectonic
faults
and
foliation
planes
and
the
kinematics seems a rotational sliding (Cruden andVarnes, 1996). Through the Shaly Chaotic Complex,characterized by lithologies affected by pronouncedfoliation, the gravitational deformations may developwith more ductile mechanical behaviour, resulting infailure surfaces flattening towards thevalley floor or adeepseated creep with very slow movement rates(Hutchinson,1988).
TheevolutionoftheDGSDwasprobalyresponsiblefortheformationofadepressionlargerthanthepresentBercetohollow,intheupperpartoftheslope,wherethe
lacustrinesequence
was
deposited.
According
to
radiocarbondata,thislacustrinesequencewasdislocatedduringtheHolocene.Thedifferenceinelevationbetweenthe bottom of the lacustrine basin encountered inboreholes BH1 and BH4 is about 50 m, which couldcorrespond toanhorizontaldisplacementofmore than100m, according to thepresentdaymorphology of theslope. Under this hypothesis the average yearlydisplacement rate is consistent with the presentdaysurface displacement ratemeasured from 1992 to 2000withsatelliteinterferometry.
Surfacedisplacementdata are also consistentwith
thehypothesis
of
gravitational
faults
reaching
the
Shaly
Chaotic Complex. The distribution of vertical vshorizontal component ratio indicates the presence ofrotational sliding surfaces; moreover the highestdisplacementratesoccurrinthecentralpartoftheslope,corresponding to the top of the deep antiformalstructure,where thedeformation of the slope seems toaffectathickersequence.
Finally, the interferometric data analysis providedsomeevidencesofcorrelationbetween landslideactivityandprecipitation.Seasonaldisplacementcyclesobservedinthetheurbanizedareaandtheupperrightpartofthe

This first attempt of integration between surfacedisplacements provided by SqueeSARTM analysis andsubsurface data provided by geophysical and boreholeinvestigations suggested that the evolutional modelproposed for the Berceto DGSD is nevertheless morecomplex than expected. Further investigations areneeded in order to gathermore surface and subsurfacedata.Moreoveranewgroundbasedmonitoringsystemisbeinginstalled,inordertointegratetheresultsobtained
