Shallow-Water Geothermal Activity Offshore Panarea
SHALLOW-WATER GEOTHERMAL ACTIVITY OFFSHORE PANAREA, AEOLIAN ISLAND ARC, ITALY by Samantha Pascarelli A thesis submitted to the Faculty and the Board of Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Geology). Golden, Colorado Date _________________________ Signed: _________________________ Samantha Pascarelli Signed: _________________________ Dr. Thomas Monecke Thesis Advisor Golden, Colorado Date _________________________ Signed: _________________________ Dr. Wendy Bohrson Professor and Department Head Geology and Geological Engineering ii ABSTRACT Panarea island represents a partially emerged arc volcano forming part of the Aeolian volcanic chain in the southern Tyrrhenian Sea. The island rises from the western sector of a submarine platform representing the eroded summit of a large submarine stratovolcano. Seafloor observations on the eastern portion of the submarine platform have been conducted using a remotely operated vehicle. The seafloor survey resulted in the discovery of a new field of hydrothermal venting between the Secca dei Panarelli and Basiluzzo islet that is typified by quiescent gas venting and the discharge of thermal waters at water depths ranging from 60 to 100 m. The geothermal activity is associated with a wide range of seafloor morphological features, many of which are transient in nature and will not likely be preserved in the geological record. This includes widespread anhydrite-gypsum deposits that have been drilling to a maximum penetration of 5 m below seafloor using a lander-type drilling device. The massive to brecciated hydrothermal deposits contain > 80 % anhydrite and gypsum in addition to alteration minerals formed during subseafloor replacement and infiltration of the volcaniclastic host.

Independent 'Self Guided' walking tour Volcanoes of Sicily Milazzo & the mythical Aeolian Islands Exploring the volcanic islands of Stromboli, Lipari & Vulcano TRIP NOTES 2021 © Genius Loci Travel. All rights reserved. [email protected] | www.genius-loci.it ***GENIUS LOCI TRAVEL - The Real Spirit Of Italy*** Independent 'Self Guided' walking tour INTRODUCTION The archipelago of the Aeolian Islands, situated off the northern coast of Sicily, is a place of overwhelming natural beauty, made all the more special by its particular volcanic nature. The islands of Lipari, Stromboli, Vulcano and Panarea, to name just the most famous, are home to tiny fishing villages and small rural settlements, settling under tall imposing volcanoes, some of which are amongst the most active in the world. Altogether this results in a spectacular landscape, where man and nature have lived together for thousands of years, which is one of the reasons why the area is listed as UNESCO World Heritage. Though living literally on a volcano certainly implies some risks, the volcanic earth also provides an extraordinary fertility – the basis for a rich agriculture, though limited by the steepness of the slopes. The flavour of the volcanic soils is still testified by the very good wines produced on these islands! You’ll discover a real walking paradise here. When you visit the Aeolian Islands you will discover vast black beaches contrasting with red or light-coloured shores, where inaccessible and winding rocky coasts alternate with beautiful beaches and large barren areas lie alongside beautiful lush gardens. During the first days of your tour you’ll spend some time in Milazzo, too often overlooked and used only as a gateway to get to the islands.

Sicily Before the Greeks. the Interaction with Aegean and the Levant in the Pre-Colonial Era
Open Archaeology 2020; 6: 172–205 Review Article Davide Tanasi* Sicily Before the Greeks. The Interaction with Aegean and the Levant in the Pre-colonial Era https://doi.org/10.1515/opar-2020-0107 received April 17, 2020; accepted July 1, 2020. Abstract: The relationship between Sicily and the eastern Mediterranean – namely Aegean, Cyprus and the Levant – represents one of the most intriguing facets of the prehistory of the island. The frequent and periodical contact with foreign cultures were a trigger for a gradual process of socio-political evolution of the indigenous community. Such relationship, already in inception during the Neolithic and the Copper Age, grew into a cultural phenomenon ruled by complex dynamics and multiple variables that ranged from the Mid-3rd to the end of the 2nd millennium BCE. In over 1,500 years, a very large quantity of Aegean and Levantine type materials have been identified in Sicily alongside with example of unusual local material culture traditionally interpreted as resulting from external influence. To summarize all the evidence during such long period and critically address it in order to attempt historical reconstructions is a Herculean labor. Twenty years after Sebastiano Tusa embraced this challenge for the first time, this paper takes stock on two decades of new discoveries and research reassessing a vast amount of literature, mostly published in Italian and in regional journals, while also address the outcomes of new archaeometric studies. The in-depth survey offers a new perspective of general trends in this East-West relationship which conditioned the subsequent events of the Greek and Phoenician colonization of Sicily.

Evidence of Active Subsidence at Basiluzzo Island (Aeolian Islands
*Manuscript Click here to view linked References Evidence of active subsidence at Basiluzzo island (Aeolian islands, southern Italy)inferred from a Roman age wharf (a)Marco Anzidei,(a)Alessandra Esposito,(b)Alessandra Benini (a)Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia. Via di Vigna Murata 605, Rome, Italy (b)Università della Calabria, Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici, Rende (CS), Italy Abstract The Aeolian Arc (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy) is one of the most active volcanic areas of the Mediterranean basin, affected by volcanic/hydrothermal and seismic activity. Ancient populations settled this region since historical times, buildingcoastal installations currently used as valuable archaeological indicators of relative sea level changes and vertical land movements. In this study we show and discuss data on the relative sea level change estimated from a submerged wharf of Roman age dated between 50 B.C. and 50 A.D.,located at Basiluzzo Island,. This structurehas been studied through marine surveys and archaeological interpretations and is presently located at a corrected depth of -4.10±0.2 m.We explain this submergence by a cumulative effect of the relative sea level change caused by the regional glacio-hydro-isostatic signal,active since the end of the last glacial maximum,andthe local volcano-tectonic land subsidence.Finally, a total subsidence rate of 2.05±0.1 mm/yr-1, with a volcano-tectonic contribution of 1.43±0.1 mm/yr-1 for the last 2ka BP, is inferred from the comparison against the latest predicted sea level curve for the Southern Tyrrhenian Sea, suggestingnew evaluations of the volcano-tectonic hazard for this area of the Aeolian islands.

Aeolian Islands) (Italy) Addendum to 1999 Iucn Evaluation
WORLD HERITAGE NOMINATION – IUCN TECHNICAL EVALUATION ISOLE EOLIE (AEOLIAN ISLANDS) (ITALY) ADDENDUM TO 1999 IUCN EVALUATION 1. DOCUMENTATION The above nomination was reviewed by the Bureau at its twenty-third extraordinary session (29 November to 4 December, 1999) which reached the following conclusion: “The Bureau noted that the site has the potential to meet natural criterion (i). The Bureau decided to refer the nomination back to allow the State Party to provide additional information and to address the exclusion of human use areas and to propose more sharply defined boundaries for the Nature Reserves and buffer zones. The volcanic landforms of the site represent classic features in the continuing study of volcanology worldwide. With scientific studies on the site from at least the 18th century, the islands have provided two of the types of eruptions (Vulcanian and Strombolian) to vulcanology and geology textbooks and so have featured prominently in the education of all geoscientists for over 200 years. They continue to provide a rich field for volcanological studies of on-going geological processes in the development of landforms. The area also has a long history of land use, and subsequent abandonment, which has lead to an on-going processes of maquis recovery.” Following the Bureau’s extraordinary meeting the World Heritage Committee, at its twenty-third session noted the examination and, after debate, noted that Italy and 1999 IUCN would clarify the management issues and that the site would be presented to the twenty-fourth Bureau session. Additional information has been received from the Italian authorities in response to this request and is the subject of IUCN’s review below.
