High vs Low Pressure Magma Chambers at Ventotene Volcano (Tyrrhenian Sea, Central Italy): Implication for Pure Plinian vs Caldera-Forming Eruptions

Gaeta M., Perinelli C., Cardello G.L., Conte A.M., Monaco L., Pavese R., Sottili G., Palladino D.M.

Journal of Petrology, Volume 66, Issue 10
https://doi.org/10.1093/petrology/egaf086

Eruptive styles are influenced by multiple factors, including magma chamber depth. At Ventotene volcano (Pontian Islands, Tyrrhenian Sea, central Italy), a transition at ~300 ka is observed from repeated ‘pure Plinian’ eruptions—i.e....

Very fast canyon formation and evolution along active volcanic flanks: A case from Stromboli Island

Casalbore D., Di Traglia F., Favalli M., Fornaciai A.,, Romagnoli C.,, Civico R., Ricci T., Berardino P., Borselli L., Calabria P., Calvari S., Carlà T. Casagli N., Casu F., Chiocci F.L., De Cesare...

Active insular volcanoes are generally characterized by their rapid morphological evolution, as a close interplay exists between eruptive activity and erosive-depositional processes in such volcanoes. The Sciara del Fuoco depression, a sector collapse...

Uncovering the Middle-Late Pleistocene Slip History of Garigliano Graben Faults and Its Impact on the Construction and Collapse of the Roccamonfina Volcano, Italy

Natale J., Vitale S., Giordano G., Jicha B., Morra V.

From: Papanikolaou, D., Bonali, F.L., Hübscher, C. and Nomikou, P. (eds) The Role of Tectonics on the Emergence and Evolution of Volcanic Features with Particular Reference to the Mediterranean Region. Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 560,
https://doi.org/10.1144/gslspecpub2024-54

The Roccamonfina volcano, located in the Garigliano Graben, is the most long-lived volcano along the Tyrrhenian margin of the southern Apennines, with activity through the Middle–Late Pleistocene. The lack of estimates about the timing and extent...

Turbulent diffusion and volcanic gas dispersion in the atmospheric surface layer: insights from La Solfatara, Campi Flegrei, Italy

Massaro S., Macedonio G., Tamburello G., Stocchi M., Rufino F., Caliro S., Bini G., Santi A., Avino R., Selva J., Sandri L., Dioguardi F., Chiodini G., Costa A.

Numerical models are widely used to simulate volcanic gas dispersion and estimate local emission sources. However, significant uncertainties arise from the approximations inherent in their physical formulations. Recent advances in high-performance computing...

The discovery of extinct volcanoes in the 18th century and the anthology on volcanoes by Giovanni Targioni Tozzetti (1779)

Sammuri P.

Rendiconti Online Soc. Geol. It, Vol. 67 (2025), pp. 79-91
https://doi.org/10.3301/ROL.2025.22.

This work aims to represent the panorama of the level reached by volcanological knowledge in the eighteenth century, having as reference the book on volcanoes written by Giovanni Targioni Tozzetti. The study starts from the precursors of the seventeenth...
