; ; ; ; ; ; ; The Vesuvius Observatory is the first volcanological observatory in the world. Since its foundation in 1841 and thanks to the approval of King Ferdinand II of Bourbon, in this site began the systematic study of Vesuvius and its eruptive activity. The Observatory site must be considered among the most representative geosites of the Vesuvius surroundings, due to the geological setting of the area and its historical and scientific value. In the XIX century volcanologists based much of their research on the direct observation of the volcanoes, so it was decided to found the Observatory not far from the Vesuvius crater. The choice could seem hazardous, but actually it never was. In fact at that time the Vesuvius activity was only characterized by effusive or low-energy explosive eruptions, and the site was always only lapped by lava flows, as reported in the first volcanological map of Vesuvius, by Johnston Lavis (1888). Names of distinguished scientists, who have dedicated their entire lives to the study of the volcano, are the flagship of the Vesuvius Observatory since its foundation. Many of them have directed it, thus linking their name to this site as well as to important discoveries in both volcanological and seismological fields. At present the historical site of the Vesuvius Observatory hosts a permanent exhibition, in which collections of great scientific, artistic and cultural value – unique for their abundance and variety – tells the story of this institution. The exhibition also introduces the visitors to volcanism and related hazards, the forecasting of volcanic eruptions and the monitoring systems of active volcanoes, proposing itself as an invaluable instrument of risk mitigation, by increasing the population awareness about the threat posed by these volcanoes and generating the conditions for a correct land-planning and management, and a sustainable development of the territory.100 50 - PublicationRestrictedReport on the Geoevent “DISCOVERING VOLCANOES”, sponsored by AIQUA, at the Vesuvius Observatory Museum (INGV)(2012)

; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; A full review of the 79 CE Plinian eruption of Vesuvius is presented through a multidisciplinary approach, exploiting the integration of historical, stratigraphic, sedimentological, petrological, geophysical, paleoclimatic, and modelling studies dedicated to this famous and devastating natural event. All studies have critically been reviewed and integrated with original data, spanning from proximal to ultradistal findings of the 79 CE eruption products throughout the Mediterranean. The work not only combines different investigation approaches (stratigraphic, petrological, geophysical, modelling), but also follows temporally the 79 CE eruptive and depo sitional events, from the magma chamber to the most distal tephras. This has allowed us first to compile a full database of all findings of those deposits, then to relate the products (the deposits) to the genetic thermo mechanical processes (the eruption), and lastly to better assess both the local and regional impacts of the 79 CE eruption in the environment. This information leads to a number of open issues (e.g., regional environmental impact vs. local pyroclastic current impact) that are worthy of further investigations, although the 79 CE eruption of Vesuvius is one of the best studied eruptions in volcanology. The structure of the work follows three macro-categories, the historical aspects, the products, and the processes of the 79 CE eruption. For each investigation approach (from stratigraphy to modelling), all dedicated studies and original data are discussed. The open issues are then synthesized in the discussion under a global view of Plinian eruptions, from the magma setting to its dispersion as pyroclasts flowing on the surface vs. falling from the volcanic plume. In this way, a lesson from the past, in particular from the well-studied 79 CE eruption of Vesuvius, will be of help for a better synchronization of processes and products in future developments. Lastly, various aspects for volcanic hazard assessment of Plinian eruptions are highlighted from the tephra distribution and modelling points of view, as these large natural phenomena can have a larger impact than previously thought, also at other active volcanoes.1459 122 - PublicationOpen AccessTowards the Vesuvius Geopark: a unique jurney throughout a living natural history museum(2018-09)
; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; Vesuvius is unique in the world for many aspects, ranging from geology to volcanology, natural sciences and archeology. It includes contexts in which all these disciplines show peculiar aspects even in a single site. It is the place where the modern studies of volcanology begun, leading in 1841 to the foundation of the Vesuvius Observatory, the oldest volcanological observatory in the World. Vesuvius exhibits a wide range of eruption styles that spans from effusive to Plinian eruptions, which produced disastrous effects on the communities that over time inhabited the surrounding areas. The oldest traces of human settlements date back to the Neolithic times, while the most recent were covered by the 1944 eruption deposits. The most famous archaeological remnants are by far those buried by the deposits of the AD 79 eruption of Pompeii. However, not less important are the traces of many past eruptions over ancient plowed fields, prehistoric villages and small rural villages in the Campania plain. All the past traces of life have been sealed repeatedly by eruptions through time, and the stratigraphic record still retains all evidence of both environmental and human resilience. It is mandatory for us to make this important patrimony accessible to everybody, respecting its high level of fragility, typical of a geologically "young" territory. Presently, despite the very large number of tourists and scientists that visit this volcano and its National Park, only a limited number of sites of great geologic, naturalistic and cultural interest is accessible. One of the main goals of the Vesuvius National Park, acting together with the INGV, is to promote a series of educational and outreach activities aimed at a full and compatible fruition of the park environment as a whole, creating the background for the candidacy of this territory to the European and global network of geoparks.84 74 - PublicationRestrictedHistoria eruptiva del Somma-Vesubio de 1631 a 1944(2007)
