    The VIRTUALDiver Project. Making Greece’s Underwater Cultural Heritage Accessible to the Public (2020)
    Molecular Diversity Preservation International
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-18
    Description: Reaching the underwater world is undoubtedly an incomparable adventure. Impressive geological structures, flourishing ecosystems, shipwrecks, and submerged landscapes lie beneath the sea surface in wait for discovery. However, this world is accessible only to those who have the chance to dive or to scientists conducting underwater research. By means of a dynamically developing sector of informatics utilizing Virtual (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) practices, the VIRTUALDiver project intends to provide access to all the aforementioned hidden “treasures” through the creation of an innovative platform providing unique interactive experiences. More specifically, specialized guided tours in natural and virtual environments covering areas of touristic, cultural, and environmental interest. VIRTUALDiver is an experience, design and content presentation platform, a custom-made add-on environment within the Unity 3D authoring tool, offering the ability to manage multimedia content in a simplified way. No specialized programming knowledge is required, enabling the project’s interdisciplinary consortium to easily collaborate and exchange ideas. The expected result is the establishment of a successful educational and entertaining cultural product to support businesses and professionals operating in the field of culture-tourism. Above all, VIRTUALDiver aspires to become a novel form of storytelling, immersing the user into unique experiences under the waves.

    Gravity observations on Santorini island (Greece): Historical and recent campaigns (2021)
    De Gruyter
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-03-15
    Description: Santorini is located in the central part of the Hellenic Volcanic Arc (South Aegean Sea) and is well known for the Late-Bronze-Age “Minoan” eruption that may have been responsible for the decline of the great Minoan civilization on the island of Crete. To use gravity to probe the internal structure of the volcano and to determine whether there are temporal variations in gravity due to near surface changes, we construct two gravity maps. Dionysos Satellite Observatory (DSO) of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) carried out terrestrial gravity measurements in December 2012 and in September 2014 at selected locations on Thera, Nea Kameni, Palea Kameni, Therasia, Aspronisi and Christiana islands. Absolute gravity values were calculated using raw gravity data at every station for all datasets. The results were compared with gravity measurements performed in July 1976 by DSO/NTUA and absolute gravity values derived from the Hellenic Military Geographical Service (HMGS) and other sources. Marine gravity data that were collected during the PROTEUS project in November and December 2015 fill between the land gravity datasets. An appropriate Digital Elevation Model (DEM) with topographic and bathymetric data was also produced. Finally, based on the two combined datasets (one for 2012–2014 and one for the 1970s), Free air and complete Bouguer gravity anomaly maps were produced following the appropriate data corrections and reductions. The pattern of complete Bouguer gravity anomaly maps was consistent with seismological results within the caldera. Finally from the comparison of the measurements made at the same place, we found that, within the caldera, the inner process of the volcano is ongoing both before, and after, the unrest period of 2011–2012.

    SANTORY: SANTORini’s Seafloor Volcanic ObservatorY (2022)
    Frontiers
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-02-07
    Description: Submarine hydrothermal systems along active volcanic ridges and arcs are highly dynamic, responding to both oceanographic (e.g., currents, tides) and deep-seated geological forcing (e.g., magma eruption, seismicity, hydrothermalism, and crustal deformation, etc.). In particular, volcanic and hydrothermal activity may also pose profoundly negative societal impacts (tsunamis, the release of climate-relevant gases and toxic metal(loid)s). These risks are particularly significant in shallow (〈1000m) coastal environments, as demonstrated by the January 2022 submarine paroxysmal eruption by the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai Volcano that destroyed part of the island, and the October 2011 submarine eruption of El Hierro (Canary Islands) that caused vigorous upwelling, floating lava bombs, and natural seawater acidification. Volcanic hazards may be posed by the Kolumbo submarine volcano, which is part of the subduction-related Hellenic Volcanic Arc at the intersection between the Eurasian and African tectonic plates. There, the Kolumbo submarine volcano, 7 km NE of Santorini and part of Santorini’s volcanic complex, hosts an active hydrothermal vent field (HVF) on its crater floor (~500m b.s.l.), which degasses boiling CO 2 –dominated fluids at high temperatures (~265°C) with a clear mantle signature. Kolumbo’s HVF hosts actively forming seafloor massive sulfide deposits with high contents of potentially toxic, volatile metal(loid)s (As, Sb, Pb, Ag, Hg, and Tl). The proximity to highly populated/tourist areas at Santorini poses significant risks. However, we have limited knowledge of the potential impacts of this type of magmatic and hydrothermal activity, including those from magmatic gases and seismicity. To better evaluate such risks the activity of the submarine system must be continuously monitored with multidisciplinary and high resolution instrumentation as part of an in-situ observatory supported by discrete sampling and measurements. This paper is a design study that describes a new long-term seafloor observatory that will be installed within the Kolumbo volcano, including cutting-edge and innovative marine-technology that integrates hyperspectral imaging, temperature sensors, a radiation spectrometer, fluid/gas samplers, and pressure gauges. These instruments will be integrated into a hazard monitoring platform aimed at identifying the precursors of potentially disastrous explosive volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, landslides of the hydrothermally weakened volcanic edifice and the release of potentially toxic elements into the water column.
