    Interpretation of data from the monitoring thermal camera of Stromboli volcano (Aeolian Islands, Italy) (2009)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Twenty eruptive events from the Northeast Crater of Stromboli volcano recorded by a thermal monitoring camera in early 2004 were analysed in order to understand the eruptive dynamics. Selected eventswere chosen to be typical of explosions that characterize the steady activity of Stromboli in terms of jet height and duration. Most of the explosions consisted of clast-rich single bursts, originating from the same vent inside the Northeast Crater. Conspicuous ash emission was scarce. Eruptions were preceded by the flashing of a perturbation wave characterized by low temperatures and an average propagation velocity of about 35–100 m s−1. This perturbation was thought to be caused by the bursting of the gas slug at the bottom of the crater and is interpreted as an air wave. This was immediately followed by the expansion of a jet of ‘hot’ gas and particles, at a velocity of 35–75 m s−1. Ejecta coarser than 138 cm appeared ∼1.6–2 s after the onset of the explosion, moving at a variable velocity (30–60 m s−1). Eruptive events were either vertical or inclined 7–13◦ towards the NNW. This inclination is thought to be a consequence either of the morphology of the conduit, following modest rock falls that partially obstructed the uppermost part of the crater, or of the displacement of the internal conduit due to the explosive activity of the volcano. The instability of the summit area is a further possible cause of the deformation of the conduit.

    Dike propagation within active central volcanic edifices: constraints from Somma-Vesuvius, Etna and analogue models (2009)
    Springer-Verlag
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Dikes within stratovolcanoes are commonly expected to have radial patterns. However, other patterns may also be found, due to regional stresses, magmatic reservoirs and topographic variations. Here, we investigate dike patterns within volcanic edifices by studying dike and fissure complexes at Somma-Vesuvius and Etna (Italy) using analogue models. At the surface, the dikes and fissures show a radial configuration. At depths of tens to several hundreds of metres, in areas exposed by erosion, tangential and oblique dikes are also present. Analogue models indicate that dikes approaching the flanks of cones, regardless of their initial orientation, reorient to become radial (parallel to the maximum gravitational stress). This re-orientation is a significant process in shallow magma migration and may also control the emplacement of dikefed fissures reaching the lower slopes of the volcano.

    Comparison between different methodologies for detecting Radon in soil along an active fault: the case of the Pernicana fault system, Mt. Etna (Italy) (2009)
    Elsevier Ltd.
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Three different methodologies were used to measure Radon (222Rn) in soil, based on both passive and active detection system. The first technique consisted of Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors (SSNTD), CR-39 type, and allowed integrated measurements. The second one consisted of a portable device for short time measurements. The last consisted of a continuous measurement device for extended monitoring, placed in selected sites. Soil 222Rn activity was measured together with soil Thoron (220Rn) and soil carbon dioxide (CO2) efflux, and it was compared with the content of radionuclides in the rocks. Two different soil gas horizontal transects were investigated across the Pernicana fault system (NE flank of Mount Etna), from November 2006 to April 2007. The results obtained with the three methodologies are in a general agreement with each other and reflect the tectonic settings of the investigated study area. The lowest 222Rn values were recorded just on the fault plane, and relatively higher values were recorded a few tens of meters from the fault axis on both of its sides. This pattern could be explained as a dilution effect resulting from high rates of soil CO2 efflux. Time variations of 222Rn activity were mostly linked to atmospheric influences, whereas no significant correlation with the volcanic activity was observed. In order to further investigate regional radon distributions, spot measurements were made to identify sites having high Rn emissions that could subsequently be monitored for temporal radon variations.. SSNTD measurements allow for extended-duration monitoring of a relatively large number of sites, although with some loss of temporal resolution due to their long integration time. Continuous monitoring probes are optimal for detailed time monitoring, but because of their expense, they can best be used to complement the information acquired with SSNTD in a network of monitored sites..

    Dike propagation in volcanic edifices: Overview and possible developments (2009)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Eruptions are fed by dikes; therefore, better knowledge of dike propagation is necessary to improve our understanding of how magma is transferred and extruded at volcanoes. This study presents an overview of dike patterns and the factors controlling dike propagation within volcanic edifices. Largely based on published data, three main types of dikes (regional, circumferential and radial) are illustrated and discussed. Dike pattern data from 25 volcanic edifices in different settings are compared to derive semi-quantitative relationships between the topography (relief, shape, height, and presence of sector collapses) of the volcano, tectonic setting (presence of a regional stress field), and mean composition (SiO2 content). The overview demonstrates how dike propagation in a volcano is not a random process; rather, it depends from the following factors (listed in order of importance): the presence of relief, the shape of the edifice and regional tectonic control. We find that taller volcanoes develop longer radial dikes, whose (mainly lateral) propagation is independent of the composition of magma or the aspect ratio of the edifice. Future research, starting from these preliminary evaluations, should be devoted to identifying dike propagation paths and likely locations of vent formation at specific volcanoes, to better aid hazards assessment.

    Structural features of the 2007 Stromboli eruption (2009)
    Elsevier B.V.
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: On 27 February 2007, two NE–SW and NNW–SSE dike-fed effusive vents opened to the North (at 650 and 400 m above sea level, asl) of the summit craters at Stromboli, forming a fissure parallel to the inner walls of the Sciara del Fuoco (SdF) sector collapse depression. The formation of these vents was soon followed by rapid subsidence of the summit crater area. This partly obstructed the central conduit, temporarily choking the fissure and increasing the deformation of the upper part of SdF. The reactivation of the NNW–SSE vent and the opening of a new vent located at 500 m asl, fed by a second dike, released the internal pressure and surface deformation ceased. The eruption then continued again from the 400 m vent, after a summit explosion on 15 March, until ending in early April after a progressive decrease of magma output. Repeated NE–SW dike intrusions have occurred in recent years, close to the upper SE limit of the SdF. In that zone, named Bastimento, the eruptive fractures traced the discontinuities that borders the SdF, increasing the risk of triggering new sector collapse. Whereas the NE–SW trending structures lie along the regional volcanostructural trend of the Aeolian arc through Stromboli, the NNW–SSE vents are oblique to this trend and may be controlled by the anomalous stress field within the unstable flank of the SdF. Another fundamental aspect of the 2007 eruption is the collapse of the central conduit, due to the rapid and deep magma drainage linked to the opening of the 400 m vent. The intrusion of dikes and development of flank vents during the 2007 eruption could possibly have triggered catastrophic landslides and related tsunami or eruptive paroxysms, but the opening of new effusive vents released the internal pressures, diminishing the hazard.

    An exceptional case of endogenous lava dome growth (2008)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: During an eruption at the Bocca Nuova, one of the summit craters of Mt. Etna, in October-November 1999 a part of the crater floor near its WNW rim was uplifted to form a dome-shaped feature that consisted of older lava and pyroclastics filling the crater. This endogenous dome grew rapidly over the crater rim, thus being perched precariously over the steep outer slope of the Bocca Nuova, and near-continuous collapse of its steep flanks generated swiftly moving pyroclastic avalanches over a period of several hours. These avalanches advanced at speeds of 10-20 m s-1 and extended up to 0.7 km from their source on top of lavas emplaced immediately before. Their deposits were subsequently covered by lava flows that issued from vents below the front of the dome and from the Bocca Nuova itself. Growth of the dome was caused by the vertical intrusion of magma in the marginal W part of the crater, which deformed and uplifted previously emplaced, still hot and plastically deformable eruptive products filling the crater. The resulting avalanches had all characteristics of pyroclastic flows spawned by collapse of unstable flanks of lava domes, but in this case the magma involved was of mafic (hawaiitic) composition and would have, under normal circumstances, produced fluid lava flows. The formation of the dome and the generation of the pyroclastic avalanches owe their occurrence to the rheological properties of the eruptive products filling the crater, which were transformed into the dome, and to the morphological configuration of the Bocca Nuova and its surroundings. The density contrast between successive erupted products may also have played a role. Although events of this type are to be considered exceptional at Etna, their recurrence might represent a serious hazard to visitors to the summit area.

    Publication Date: 2017-04-03
    Description: CE.S.I.S. project, promoted by the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology and funded by Ministry of Instruction, University, and Scientific Research (MIUR) foresees the realization of a permanent seismic, accelerometric and geodetic network in Southern Italy, and the consequent realization of a Research Centre for seismology and seismic engineering.The Geographical Information System (SIT) is a main part of the CESIS Project, because it proposes to collect and to integrate cartographic and descriptive information for the analysis of the territorial, seismological and geological characteristics of South Italy. The SIT has a double role: first, it is a support in the activities of the technicians and researchers, especially in siting of both seismic and GPS stations; second, with its huge amount of geographic information, it renders the starting base for applications Gis-based in the seismology and for evaluation of the seismic risk.

    Il contributo dell'analisi spaziale di superficie a supporto della Rete Mobile di Pronto Intervento del Centro Nazionale Terremoti (INGV) (2008)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-02-03
    Description: La Rete Mobile di Pronto Intervento (RPI) è una struttura in dotazione al Centro Nazionale Terremoti che permette, in caso di sequenza sismica, di intervenire in loco per incrementare il numero di stazioni sismiche nell'area epicentrale. La peculiarità di questa rete è la possibilità di trasmissione del flusso dati in tempo reale presso la sala sismica di Roma. La RPI sfrutta il sistema di trasmissione Nanometrics (implementato nella Rete Sismica Nazionale con circa 100 stazioni) per la trasmissione dei dati via satellite rendendo di fatto il sistema del tutto autonomo rispetto alle infrastrutture esistenti. La parte trasmissiva è composta da un sistema di trasmissione in UHF che permette la trasmissione anche a lunghe distanze. Le caratteristiche del sistema di trasmissione e scambio di dati influenza notevolmente la disposizione geografica delle stazioni della Rete intorno all’area epicentrale. Gli elementi della Rete (stazioni remote, sottocentri, antenna satellitare) devono essere “visibili” e ad una certa distanza massima fra loro per poter trasmettere i dati in modo corretto. E' possibile utilizzare le funzionalità di analisi spaziale per supportare la collocazione degli elementi della RPI nell’area epicentrale. In particolare partendo da un modello digitale del terreno dettagliato dell’area è possibile applicare le funzionalità di analisi spaziale di superficie (Surface Analysis) ad esempio gli strumenti di Visibility dell’estensione Spatial Analyst.

    Pyroclastic density currents resulting from the interaction of basaltic magma with hydrothermally altered rock: an example from the 2006 summit eruptions of Mount Etna, Italy (2008)
    Springer-Verlag
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Abstract After 16 months of quiescence, Mount Etna began to erupt again in mid-July 2006. The activity was concentrated at and around the Southeast Crater (SEC), one of the four craters on the summit of Etna, and eruptive activity continued intermittently for 5 months. During this period, numerous vents displayed a wide range of eruptive styles at different times. Virtually all explosive activities took place at vents at the summit of the SEC and on its flanks. Eruptive episodes, which lasted from 1 day to 2 weeks, became shorter and more violent with time. Volcanic activity at these vents was often accompanied by dramatic mass-wasting processes such as collapse of parts of the cone, highly unusual flowage processes involving both old rocks and fresh magmatic material, and magma– water interaction. The most dramatic events took place on 16 November, when numerous rockfalls and pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) were generated during the opening of a large fracture on the SE flank of the SEC cone. The largest PDCs were clearly triggered explosively, and there is evidence that much of the energy was generated during the interaction of intruding magma with wet rocks on the cone’s flanks. The most mobile PDCs traveled up to 1 km from their source. This previously unknown process on Etna may not be unique on this volcano and is likely to have taken place on other volcanoes. It represents a newly recognized hazard to those who visit and work in the vicinity of the summit of Etna.

    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: This movie, is based on the results provided by a combined research in the field of earth and archaeological sciences, which merged geology, archaeology, instrumental data and geophysical analysis, to discover how the Mediterranean sea level has changed during the last 2000 years, due to geological and global changes. The coastline exploration of the Mare Nostrum of Romans, which still show the archaeological remnants of fish tanks, harbours and quarries of roman or pre-roman age, witness the large Earth’s movements, planet in continuous evolution, whose active dynamics produce relative movements between land and sea, with subsequent impact on the human activities along the coasts. Picturesque camera records, fascinating underwater views, drawings, graphics and animations, introduce the audience along a journey through time along the coast of the Mediterranean between geology, archaeology and geophysics, to explain how the reason of the changes have been discovered and interpreted thanks to the archaeological remnants.

    Earthquake-induced tsunamis in the Mediterranean Sea: scenarios of potential threats to southern Italy (2006)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-10-22
    Description: The huge loss of lives and the destruction caused by the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami dramatically showed the need for a reassessment of tsunami hazard and risk in coastal regions prone to this threat. It is known that many countries facing the Mediterranean basin have been affected by several tsunamis in the past, some of which were catastrophic over large areas. Our work aims to quantitatively address the problem of the tsunami hazard and risk assessment by means of numerical simulation of earthquake-induced tsunami scenarios. The work is part of a larger project, funded by the Italian Department for Civil Defense, whose main goal is the evaluation of the seismogenic potential and of the probability of occurrence of strong earthquakes in Italy. Here we show some preliminary results concerning the analysis of several simulated tsunami scenarios. On the basis of tsunami catalogues and seismogenic source databases, we selected a set of tectonic sources that, owing to their location and/or size, are believed to be especially hazardous for the Italian coasts. Once the geometrical parameters of the fault are defined (on the basis of geological and seismological evidence and constraints), we compute the coseismic vertical displacement of the seafloor, which represents the initial condition of the tsunami propagation problem. Then we solve the propagation equations (the wide used shallow-water equations) through a finite difference technique. The main outputs of a single run are the wavefields at desired times, useful to estimate the arrival times of the wavefronts, and the maximum water elevation field that gives at-glance information on the tsunami energy focusing during the whole propagation. Furthermore, for those stretches of coast that are particularly vulnerable (owing to high population density, presence of important infrastructures, etc.) we make a more detailed analysis of the wave impact. Among the tectonic sources we studied, the 365 AD Crete earthquake indeed represents a serious threat for the Italian coastlines facing the Ionian Sea, where we estimated a wave height exceeding 1-2 meters along hundreds of km of the coast. Furthermore, the first wavefront from this source is expected to reach the coasts of southern Italy in less than 1 hour from the origin time of the parent earthquake. This finding stresses the need for an especially early warning by the geophysical monitoring systems and by the Civil Defense structures.

    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: The INGV has a Monitoring Centre in Catania, based on semi-automatic systems, able to spread, in near real time, all the most significant information in seismological and volcanic matters. New monitoring techniques, with on line data processing and continuous data update, are of course very useful to understand volcanoes activities and for correct hazard evaluation in volcanic areas. Moreover massive use of hardware and software for real time systems requires very large amount of broadband connections. New architectures have been developed to acquire, analyze and visualize on line data, providing higher accuracy, band optimization and systems robustness.

    Satellite differential SAR interferometry for the evaluation of effects of hydrogeological disasters: definition of a scale for damage evaluation (2006)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-11-04
    Description: In this paper we present the results of monitoring soil movements over an about 10 km2 area around the border between the Calabria and Basilicata regions in Italy. Monitoring has been performed using the satellite differential SAR interferometry measurements integrated with GPS measurements. In particular, we used ERS data acquired at time interval of several months (about two acquisitions per year), and after particularly strong pluvial events. Terrain displacement spatial and temporal analysis has been performed by employing the original method described in Berardino et al. (2002, 2003). Obtained results allow us to characterise unstable areas, and can be used within projects aimed at territory classification and characterisation, and at performing damage evaluation. Accordingly, this technique has been included in the framework of a proposed UE project (WEDELOP project) aimed at developing an integrated methodology to devise a damage scale for hydrogeological disasters. This scale is of great interest in many fields; in particular, definition of a damage scale would be highly desirable from the viewpoint of insurance companie

    Landscape planning for a safe city (2006)
    INGV
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-11-04
    Description: To create a safe city free from natural disasters has been one of the important criteria in city planning. Since large cities have suffered from large fires caused by earthquakes, the planning of open spaces to prevent the spread of fires is part of the basic structure of city planning in Japan. Even in the feudal city of Edo, the former name of Tokyo, there had been open spaces to prevent fire disasters along canals and rivers. This paper discusses the historical evolution of open space planning, that we call landscape planning, through the experiences in Tokyo, and clarifies the characteristics and problems for achieving a safe city.

    A new strategy for the seismic assessment of existing RC buildings (2006)
    INGV
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-11-04
    Description: This paper presents a new strategy for the seismic assessment of existing Reinforced Concrete (RC) buildings. The proposed method is based on a two steps approach. A field survey of some buildings is first developed torecord their geometrical and mechanical characteristics; such survey is then enriched with information based on regulations and practical rules used during construction: the result of this step is the definition of homogeneus classes of buildings representing typical structures. The second step is based on the assessment of the seismic capacity of these structures using both refined models and parametric analysis: the outcomes can be extended to the defined classes to obtain vulnerability maps. A first application of the proposed strategy was made in Catania and the results of that study on an urban area, characterized by RC buildings constructed in the '60s and '70s without seismic provisions, are briefly presented.

    Natural catastrophes and point-like processes Data handling and prevision (2006)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-11-04
    Description: A frequent approach when attempting to manage a natural catastrophe is in terms of a numerical model, by which we try to forecast its occurrence in space and time. But, sometimes this is difficult or even unrealistic. On more pragmatic grounds we can appeal to a formal analysis of the historical time series of every catastrophe of concern. Only approximately, however, can such series be likened to a point-like process, because the "detector-mankind" experienced substantial changes versus time. Nevertheless, such algorithms can be approximately applied by means of a few suitable assumptions. In the ultimate analysis, four basic viewpoints can be considered: i) either by assuming that phenomena are periodic; ii) or by assuming that an event occurs only whenever some energy threshold is attained (calorimetric criterion); iii) or by assuming that it occurs only whenever the system experiences some abrupt change in its boundary conditions; or iv), whenever no such algorithm is viable due to scanty observational information, just by applying fractal analysis, in terms of the box counting method, or some other more or less related and/or equivalent algorithms. The mutual relations, advantages, and drawbacks of any such approach are briefly discussed, with a few applications. They already lead to an apparently successful long-range forecast of a large flood in Northern Italy which occurred in 1994, and to the prevision of the next explosive eruption of Vesuvius. But the success of every application is closely determined by the quality of the historical database, or by the physical information that is fed into the analysis, rather than by mathematics that per se have only to be concerned with avoiding some arbitrary input being added, based only on the human need for simplicity. The present paper gives a synthesis of several algorithms that were previously independently applied on a simple intuitive basis to different case studies, although with no comparisons or discussion of their similarities and/or differences.

    The buried caldera of Misti volcano, Peru, revealed by combining a self-potential survey with elliptic Fourier function analysis of topography (2005)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: This survey proposes a new approach to identify buried caldera boundaries of a volcanic cone, combining (1) a systematic elliptic Fourier functions (EFF) analysis on the contour lines based on the external shape of the edifice with (2) self-potential (SP) measurements on volcano flanks. The methodology of this approach is to investigate the relationships between (1) vertical morphological changes inferred from EFF analysis and (2) lateral lithological transition inside the edifice inferred from SP/elevation gradients. The application of these methods on Misti volcano in southern Peru displays a very good correlation. The three main boundaries evidenced by hierarchical cluster analysis on the contour lines coincide with the two main boundaries characterised by SP signal and with a secondary SP signature related with a summit caldera. In order to explain these results showing a very good correlation between morphologic and lithologic changes as function of elevation, caldera boundaries have been suggested. The latter would be located at an average elevation of (1) 4350–4400 m, (2) 4950–5000 m, and (3) 5500– 5550 m. For the lowest boundary in elevation, the coincidence with the lateral extension of the hydrothermal system inferred from SP measurements suggests that caldera walls act as a barrier for lateral extension of hydrothermal systems. In the summit area, the highest boundary has been related with the summit caldera, inferred by a secondary SP minimum and geological evidence.
