Summary:The authors applied the differential SAR interferometry technique
to detect and measure the rise of a basal anticline beneath the urban
area of Catania (Italy) which originates from outward thrusting above
the basal decollement of Etna volcano. This phenomenon, coupled with the
already documented active extension of the volcano summit area,
demonstrates the occurrence of the active volcanic spreading process
