The Guardians of Naples’s Volcanic Bay | FULL DOC

[@stephengardiner9867]

Volcanos do NOT "spew magma". Magma exists underground but once erupted it is referred to as lava.

I love geology and this program on the Italian volcanoes - Recall my visiting Naples in 2001 and how fascinating a city it is, so much we visited - I'd like to return someday to see the Phlegraean Fields and Solfatara.

I was last year on Vesuvius and at Campi Flegrei. I am in love with this region. I understand, why people are living there. 😊

Very interesting documentary. Thank you.

[@ellenbryn]

Right at the very end, 51:45, the camera flies over those mushroom-shaped Mediterranean pine trees ("Italian stone pine," pinus pinea) Pliny meant when he said the volcanic cloud over Vesuvius looked like a pine tree. I think every documentary that gives that quote should show one of those umbrella-shaped pine trees with Vesuvius in the background. One of my archaeology teachers had taken a photo like that for her archaeology lecture. That cleared up one of the more confusing lines in Pliny's otherwise very lucid account for those of us who live where pine trees are pointy and/or have branches all the way to the ground.

Premalo se govori o tome ,vecina ljudi u hrv ni nezna za flegrejska pojla sto je sramotno. A zadnja mjerenja pokazuju da je tlo 4 metra nabubrilo , i da cep koji zapravo drzi flegrejska pojla postaje nestabilan , i nije rastezljiva stjena vec kruta sto znaci ako pukne eksplozija ce biti katastrofalna .... mislim da bi se lagano trebali pripremati na mogucnost vulkanske zime ako nestabilnost flegrejskih polja nastavi ovako.

it is amazing how humanity will do the same thing over and over again. They build right next to volcano. The same thing in Iceland and also in Africa.Just look at the areal shot over the Vesuvius. Millions of people right next to it. Now they are in panic again. It is shaking all over the place.

[@lesliecarr312]

Aetna and Stromboli are potentially very dangerous but their multitude of nearly constant eruptions limits their capacity to produce gigantic explosive eruptions. But the cone of Vesuvius is in the middle of the Mount Soma caldera. The size of Mount Soma's crater is evidence of an ancient eruption at least a hundred times more powerful than the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 Anno Domini. Vesuvio (the Italian spelling) is by far the most dangerous volcano in the world by reason (or lack thereof) of the more than 6 million people living on and around it. If you are anywhere you can see Vesuvio the next time it pops a Pliny, you are probably going to die because you won't have time to escape.

[@DulceN]

The name Aetna was only used in the Greek-Roman age, the name used for centuries now is Mount Etna or simply Etna. Aetna is now the name of a health insurance co. in the USA.

[@DavidTrainmore]

In 1971 I rode North past Vesuvius and saw many Napoli standing in lite rain, looking towards the cone. It had been puffing that morning, and they all knew what might happen to them. I just kept my Ducati 250 S pointed North and kept going to Roma.

Campi Flegrei haw been "about to erupt" or "showing signs of an imminent eruption" since I first learned about it in 1975 when I was in elementary school. I know "about to" is different when speaking geology-time, but this video is speaking histrionic-time.

[@Puils]

Pretty sure there was a period where the volcano showed signs of imminent eruption during the 70's, where some of the surrounding area was evacuated - but that it returned to normal back then, and has only recently been showing alarming signs once again.

[@einezcrespo2107]

The 79 AD eruption of Vesuvius also destroyed the city of Herculaneum.

[@Unsolicitedbias]

We lived in Arco Felice north of Pozzuoli. There were some villas above Camp Averno and in the 1966-68 time frame I can remember hiking up the flank of a high hill, which turned out to be a vent. I remember hiking up the mountain, through vineyards and finally got to the top to see a great cone filled with water. I was probably 7 or 8 then. Just me and nobody else with me. It was great to be a kid then.

The whole of Campi Flegrei is the supervolcano. The many craters within its caldera were formed in smaller, more recent eruptions.

[@DavidTrainmore]

No, the whole bay is a super volcanic caldera just like Yellowstone in Wyoming. Vesuvius marks the Eastern edge and the Flegerean Fields are at the western edge. Sunken calderas like this one can blow up like the 1883 one at Krakatau. But the 530 AD blast there brought the Dark Ages to Northern Europe for 150 years

[@danielaelmi]

It’s constantly monitored since many years using the latest technology and by highly skilled experts, but you cannot bring such a huge supervolcano really under control. It’s not like a normal volcano at all. I’ve seen the ground going up and down several cm’s like a soufflé due to gases of the underground activity! My friends living there keep on feeling continuously low to medium earthquakes… Besides the supervolcano there’s the big “sleepy” volcano Vesuvio: they’re two different things, and together they’re hugely dangerous.

[@salparadise1220]

The word you're missing is "caldera", and that's why the bay of Naples is so scary. It's a potentially huge volcanic crater, half of which is undersea and the rest is home to over a million people. If it went up, as a caldera eruption - most of Italy would cease to exist and the Northern Hemisphere would be a mess for some years. And it's showing signs of waking up and becoming restless. If it did erupt there would be a short, sharp lesson in what climate change really looks like (instead of this drip feed of lies, pencil destroyed statistics and endlessly guaranteed to fail predictions that we get served at the moment).

[@Unsolicitedbias]

Maybe someday we could have a split, like a sort of North and South Island as in New Zealand? That would be interesting, though I doubt that this Caldera could support a fissure that bisected the peninsula. But maybe it could start to cause a fracture and then in successive eruptions and massive quakes too, the slow but permanent fission of Italy could happen. That might take a few thousand or even tens of thousands of years to progress to that point. But we have to remember that the planet has looked very differently over the various time periods. We measure history in Human generations, but the Planet measures time quite differently, in millions of years.

The INGV is talking about changes in fumes that are apearing since a few years at the Etna volcano, well wasn't that something to expect! Since end of 2018 magma channel coming from the Etna crossed the Crete line. The tunnel running from Bosnia, Albania, Crete and further connected in the Ionean Sea after the 6,4 earthquake in end Oktober 2018. After this high earthquake there was a strong fliw of magma moving back towards the Etna, it took and takes 2 hours and ca. 10minutes to let the Etna Erupt. If we see this as a dangerous or as a scietificdata, you know having two kinds of magma that are coming together and because they have both there own structure (different ground it moves on) you can get a different kind of gas or magma flowing. So the changes aren't really not to explain. Its just looking at what is taking place. Another look at hiw our earth is working could explain a lot more. And even make it easier to understand magma patterns.

The A.D. 79 eruption of Vesuvius was worse than St. Helens. It took out 2 towns, Pompeii and Herculaneum. Pretty much wiped out both towns' populations. Herculaneum was mostly hit by pyroclastic flows, burning the inhabitants on the spot. Pompeii received the flows first, but, seemingly, the effects weren't seen so much there.

Yes, because a supervolcano eruption would admit so much ash, it would plunge Europe into a volcanic winter for years and eventually most of the planet. Plus, it would likely caused a mega tsunami that would race thru the Mediterranean.

[@sergpie]

@@TheSmertinator The eruption of Vesuvius did indeed cause a tsunami, but it was local in extent. The winter caused by the amount of ash would likely lower seasonal temperatures for a couple of years, but only enough to stunt crop production, but not eliminate it. Krakatoa didn’t even do that.

If It becomes Red then city get evacuated but since italian Police Is the most prepared in the world for that they will evacuate people living nearest first so if realistically there Will be 3-7days of time to evacuate probably 2/3 million people will be evacuated only in first 2 days.

If human beings actually were the rational beings they like to think they are, Naples would have become lovely, totally uninhabited museum of a city, wonderful to visit, but not to live in. What we have here is a capacity for denying reality that exceeds anything we have ever experienced.
