    Reconstruction of the subaerial Holocene volcanic activity through paleomagnetic and 14C dating methods: El Hierro (Canary Islands) (2022)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-04-01
    Description: Volcanic hazard assessment relies on the accurate knowledge of the eruptive style and recurrence of volcanic eruptions in the past. At El Hierro (Canary Islands) historical and prehistorical records are still poorly defined, and although the island was the location of one of the most recent eruptions (La Restinga, 2011 CE) of the Canarian archipelago, the recent subaerial volcanism is still poorly studied. Information about the age of Holocene volcanic activity as well as the stratigraphy of the deposits is scarce: few eruptions are dated so far, whereas the others are classified as pre-or Holocene events considering lava flow characteristics along the coast. Here, we report on the dating of eleven (M˜na Chamuscada, M˜na del Tesoro, Orchilla, Las Calcosas, M˜na Negra, Lomo Negro, Below Lomo Negro, Cuchillo del Roque, Malpaso Member, and M˜na del Guanche) Holocene subaerial eruptions, distributed along the three rift zones, combining paleomagnetic and 14C methods. We also provide geochemical analyses for nine of them. Results indicate that M˜na Chamuscada and M˜na del Tesoro occurred more recently than previously considered, setting them within the last two thousand years. Conversely, paleomagnetic and 14C ages found for Lomo Negro eruption are consistent with literature data (Villasante- Marcos and Pav´on-Carrasco, 2014) and constrain the occurrence of this event in the XVI century CE. Finally, for Malpaso Member deposits, the two 14C datings obtained by charcoals found below and above the trachytic layer set the eruption during the Holocene epoch, between ~7300 BCE and ~4700 BCE. For the other eruptions, in two cases (Orchilla and Las Calcosas) many possible time windows during the last 14 ka have been found, whereas a few possible ages have been obtained for the others. On the whole, the resulting chronological reconstruction of the recent activity of El Hierro indicates that eruptions occurred unevenly along the three main rifts, with nine eruptions in the WNW rift, six in the NE rift, and four in the SSE rift. We document at least two periods characterized by high eruptive frequency: an old one, between 8000 BCE and 1000 BCE, with eight eruptions, three of which characterized by more evolved compositions (phonotephrite and trachyte), and a recent one, between 1000 BCE and present day, with at least seven eruptions, mainly showing basanite compositions. The new data yield a significant improvement of Holocene eruption chronology, thus are instrumental for a correct evaluation of the volcanic hazard at El Hierro.

    Aeromagnetism (2022)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-02-10
    Description: The airborne magnetic method was established a few decades ago, as a strong tool in mining and petroleum exploration. Several economically relevant discoveries are often credited to aeromagnetism. Geological reconnaissance and mapping, deep crustal and upper mantle studies, environmental characterization, and national and international security issues can greatly benefit from the aeromagnetic method, as compared with other geophysical prospecting schemes. The rapid rate of coverage and the low cost per unit area explored represent just a few among the many advantages of the technique. Consequently, large-scale airborne magnetic surveys have been carried out in various parts of the globe. The amount of direct discoveries of ore bodies by means of aeromagnetism is impressive. Large magnetic iron deposits found in the early 1960s are in Southern California, Missouri, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Quebec, Ontario, and elsewhere. In the field of petroleum exploration, the method has also been used, although with less direct application. Depth to magnetic basement estimation in sedimentary basins narrows down areas of interest where to conduct exploration surveys in detail by means of more costly methods. The most relevant use of airborne magnetic results is crustal imaging and characterization. Nowadays, geology is interpreted in three dimensions using a digital aeromagnetic map.

    Complexity measures of geomagnetic indices in the last two solar cycles (2021)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-10-31
    Description: The SYM-H and AE geomagnetic indices can be considered as proxies of the response of the Earth’s magnetosphere and ionosphere to solar magnetic activity. They indirectly monitor some electric current systems which flow in the ionosphere and magnetosphere whose dynamics are directly or indirectly related to the Sun– Earth interaction. Consequently, their temporal changes reflect processes occurring in the near-Earth space, which contribute differently to the overall magnetosphere–ionosphere dynamics. The aim of this work is to characterize the nature of these two geomagnetic indices by following a complex system approach and applying a novel formalism, e.g., the EMD-based dominant amplitude multifractal formalism (EMD-DAMF). A set of complexity measures, i.e., the Hurst exponent (H), the singularity width (𝛥𝛼) and the spectrum width (𝛥𝑓), is evaluated for both geomagnetic indices analyzing data recorded during the last two solar cycles. One of the most significant findings of this study is the absence of relevant differences between the two solar cycles in terms of complexity measures for both geomagnetic indices, suggesting that only the occurrence and the frequency of geomagnetic storms and substorms affect the Hurst exponent and the singularity widths of SYM-H and AE indices. Moreover, while the AE index complexity measures do not show a significant dependence on geomagnetic activity, the SYM-H index shows a reduction in its complexity features during the geomagnetic storms, manifesting a more persistent behavior and moving from a (mono)fractal-like to a multifractal-like behavior when passing from quiet to disturbed periods. Finally, our findings are consistent with previous works on the forecast horizon of the geomagnetic activity as well as on the relation between the high-latitude ionosphere and the low-latitude magnetosphere, thus confirming the importance of providing higher resolution measures for correctly dealing with several Space Weather phenomena.

    High resolution magnetic anomalies, volcanism and tectonics of the active “La Fossa” vulcanic system (Vulcano island) and Lipari island (South Italy) (2024)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-01-09
    Description: In this paper we present the new high-resolution magnetic anomaly map of the La Fossa Caldera system and Lipari island (Southern Italy), obtained by merging two low-altitude aeromagnetic surveys. In these islands a variegated ensemble of magnetic anomalies develops in the north-south direction. The La Fossa Caldera is characterized by very high-intensity and short-wavelength magnetic anomalies, related to mafic intrusive/effusive sources, mainly aligned along the NNW-SSE and NS faults. Instead, the Lipari island is characterized by lower intensity anomalies related to sources with more evolved chemistry, elongated in the NE-SW, NNE-SSW and EW of the subordinate faults. Both the two sets of structures belong to the Tindari-Letojanni strike slip fault-system, a regional lineament along which the southern side of the Aeolian Archipelago is emplaced. The study identifies three distinctive magnetic zones on the Lipari island: the southern, the central, and the north-western ones. The southern zone is characterized by negative magnetic monopoles in correspondence with the younger rhyolitic domes and a Curie Isotherm upwelling. The central part of the island has an average lower intensity of positive anomalies, corresponding to the less evolved products of the intermediate Lipari volcanic epochs. The north-western side is characterized by higher intensity anomalies related to older volcanic epochs. The interplay among strike-slip tectonics, chemistry of the uprising magmas, and the thermal setting has contributed to the overall anomaly pattern in this sector of the Aeolian Archipelago. This interpretation is supported by the application of digital enhancement to the total intensity magnetic anomaly field and by the spatial correlation analysis of the magnetic and volcano-tectonic features. The obtained insights are useful to better understand the relationship between arc volcanism and tectonics. Moreover, they can also outline new inferences to forecast future eruptions of the active La Fossa volcanic system. In fact, recent unrest signals were registered at La Fossa Cone, which is one of the present-day active volcanoes of the Aeolian Archipelago, along with Stromboli island.
