Description:
The first hydrogeological mapping of Ischia Island at the 1:10,000 scale is presented and
discussed. The ‘Map of the geohydrologic units of Ischia Island’ and the accompanying
hydrostratigraphic sequence at a basin scale are based on the most recent geological
maps and data from the CAR.G Project, and on new volcanological and hydrogeological
surveys and studies. Data sources include the database stored by the INGV, Sezione di
Napoli, Osservatorio Vesuviano and field investigations, including a survey of the springs
and thermo-mineral springs which has been neglected up to now. In total 130
volcanostratigraphic units and 18 geohydrologic units were recognized; the distribution of
fumaroles sites was enhanced, and 60 springs/thermal springs were identified/rediscovered.
The proposed hydrogeological map provides an overview of the volcano-tectonic evolution
of Ischia Island and upgrades the hydrogeological model, becoming a catalyst for the effort
to acquire better data and to manage natural both resources and risks.
