The natural park of Le Biancane is located in the southern sector of the Larderello-Travale geothermal field (LTGF). It extends over an approximately 100,000 m2 area where the impermeable caprock is locally absent and deep fluids may directly reach the surface. Through a multidisciplinary approach including measurements of soil CO2 flux (total output of 11.5 t day 1), soil temperature (average 34.4 ◦C), stable isotope and chemical data on fluids from fumaroles (dominated by a mixture of geothermal gases and air or gases from air-saturated meteoric water), and structural analysis of the formation outcropping, we found that anomalous CO2 emissions
are positively correlated with shallow temperature anomalies. These are in restricted locations adjacent to vents and fumaroles, where a network of well-connected fractures (preferentially NW-SE and NE-SW orientated and with steep dips) drains efficiently allowing upward migration of the deep fluids and the energy toward the surface.
