Nanolite cargo evolution in trachybasaltic glass comparing magnetite and augite Open
This study investigates the relationship between crystallization behavior, magnetic and mechanical properties, and crack formation in a trachybasaltic glass using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray powder di…

Geology of the Pleistocene volcano of Monte Amiata (Southern Tuscany, Italy) Open
Monte Amiata (305–231 ka; Italy) is an uncommon example of an entirely effusive silicic (mainly trachytic) composite volcano. A detailed geological map (1:25,000 scale) based on Unconformity Bounded Stratigraphic Unit criteria is presented…

Structural Control at Monte Somma and Vesuvio during the Last 5600 Years through Time and Space Distribution of Volcanic Vents Open
Vesuvio is likely the most if not one of the most dangerous volcanoes in the world. It is an active volcano, quiescent since 1944. The activity of the Monte Somma and Vesuvio volcanic complex is commonly referred to as two central volcanic…

Monte Somma magneto-stratigraphy and growth Open
This work, based on cartographic, morphologic, structural, paleo-magnetic, stratigraphic, and petro-chemical data, depict a new scenario of the Monte Somma growth and the volcanic evolution of this portion of Somma-Vesuvius volcanic comple…

Physical Volcanology and Facies Analysis of Silicic Lavas: Monte Amiata Volcano (Italy) Open
Monte Amiata (Italy) is a middle Pleistocene silicic volcano characterized by the extrusion of extensive (5–8 km long and 60 m thick on average) sheet-like lava flows (SLLFs). It is one of the prime volcanoes that have been involved in the…

Archaeomagnetic Dating of Three Furnaces inside the Middle Age Settlement of San Genesio (San Miniato, Pisa, Italy) Open
Archaeomagnetic dating using full geomagnetic vector was performed on three furnaces cropping out at San Genesio archaeological zone, an ancient settlement located in the Arno River plain, near San Miniato (Pisa). The first evidence of hum…

Geological and Cultural Heritage: Dissemination Experiences in Tuscany Open
We report on some recent experiences of scientific dissemination activities on geomaterials carried out by a network of scientific organizations in Tuscany (Italy). The primary message we want to disseminate is that even the most “insignif…

Volcanology of the Southwestern sector of Vesuvius volcano, Italy Open
Here we present a new volcanological map of the Southwestern portion of the Vesuvius volcano at a scale of 1:10,000. Mapped units were subdivided into Unconformity-Bounded Stratigraphic Units. This work constitutes a significant developmen…
