Analysis of the Effects due to Ash Fallout from Mt. Etna on Industrial Installations
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2012 The fallout of ash from Mt Etna has caused significant problems to the resident population, road/rail and air traffic and production activities. This work is focused on the study of the potential damage to industrial structures caused by the fallout of ...

Tephra hazard assessment at Mt. Etna (Italy) [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013 In this paper we present a probabilistic hazard assessment for tephra fallout at Mt. Etna (Italy) associated with both short- and long-lived eruptions. Eruptive scenarios and eruption source parameters were defined based on the geological record, while ...

A Probabilistic Approach to Risk Mapping for Mt. Etna
CoRR, 2013 We evaluate susceptibility to lava flows on Mt. Etna based on specially designed die-toss experiments using probabilities for type, time and place of activation from the volcano's 400-year recorded history and current studies on its known fractures and fissures.

Analysis of the intermittent volcanic tremor observed at Mt. Etna, Sicily during March-May 1987
Annals of Geophysics, 1996 Volcanic activity at the summit craters of Mt. Etna includes phreatic eruptions which jeopardize tourists and other people who sporadically approach the top of the volcano. To date no appreciable precursors of this kind of activity are known.

Shear-wave polarization alignment on the eastern flank of Mt. Etna volcano (Sicily, Italy)
Annals of Geophysics, 1996 Recently, with the improvement of three-component seismic networks, studies revealing anisotropic characteristics in different regions have assumed great interest. In a complex volcanic area like Mt.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.Abstract Cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) modulate the properties and thus the climate effects of clouds. The North African dust plume is an important source of CCN in the North Atlantic trade‐wind zone. Yet, research into the nature and sources of these CCN is sparse, making it difficult to fully assess related cloud effects. Using combined airborne in

Deep Origin and Shallow Launch for the Etna 122 B.C. Mafic Plinian Eruption
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Basaltic Plinian eruptions challenge our understanding of explosive volcanism. The 122 B.C. Plinian eruption of Etna ranks among the most powerful mafic explosive events known. Here, we combine volatile barometry of 122 B.C. from olivine‐hosted melt and fluid inclusions with comparative data from the sub‐Plinian Fall Stratified eruption at ...

The geodynamics of Mt. Etna volcano during and after the 1984 eruption
Annals of Geophysics, 1999 Data concerning M > 2.5 earthquakes that occurred at Mt. Etna volcano (Sicily, Italy) during the period April 15th - October 29th, 1984 are here presented and discussed. Only those events with reliable focal mechanisms (at least eight polarities) have
