Description:
The present guidebook was prepared for the fieldtrip during the Kick off
meeting of the project titled “Strategies and tools for Real Time Earthquake
RisK ReducTion” (REAKT). It reports information on the geology of the
Somma-Vesuvius volcanic area and illustrates the sites visited during the
field excursion. The guide mostly benefited of contributions coming from
some previous guidebooks (Cioni et al., 1995; Orsi et al., 1998); it also includes
some interesting results available in the main and most recent literature.
The fieldtrip will be devoted to illustrating i) the major morphological
and structural features of the Somma-Vesuvius volcano, and ii) the deposits
of the eruptions and their impact on the territory. The trip will end with the
tour of the Osservatorio Vesuviano edifice that preserves the memory of the
oldest volcanological observatory in the world and hosts a museum and two
scientific exibitions.
