The Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV)

INGV score between 2000 and 2010(ScienceWATCH - Thomson Reuters).

Main departments Other departments

INGV was born in September 1999. INGV was meant to gather all scientific

and technical institutions operating in Geophysics and Volcanology and create a permanent scientific forum in the Earth Sciences.



|

The main mission of INGV is monitoring geophysical phenomena in both

the solid and fluid components of the Earth.

INGV is devoted to 24-hour countrywide seismic surveillance, real-time

volcanic monitoring, early warning and forecast activities.

State-of-the-art networks of geophysical sensors deliver a continuous flow of

observations to the acquisition centres of Rome, Naples and Catania, where

specialized staff analyse data and provide immediate communications for

civil defence purposes.

INGV operates in close coordination with the Ministry of University and

Research and with Civil Protection authorities, both at national and local level.

Italian active volcanoes

3DTeLC Summer School 27 July 2018 – Portsmouth England

Mount Etna Volcano

Catalogue Number: 0101-06 (SmithsonianInstitution, Global Volcanism Program)Elevation above the sea-level: 3330 m in 2007Location: 37.734°N, 15.004°ETotal surface: 1200 square kilometers

Etna is the largest and tallest volcano in Europe, and one of themost active volcanoes on Earth. Its eruptions occur both at thesummit, where, at present, there are four craters, and from itsflanks, down to a few hundred meters above the sea-level.

The four summit craters are: the Voragine and the Bocca Nuova,formed in 1945 and 1968, respectively, within the Central Crater;the Northeast Crater that originated in 1911 and is currently thehighest point on Etna (3330 m); and the Southeast Crater, born in1971, which has recently been the most active of the four craters.This configuration strongly contrasts with that of one century ago,when at the summit of Etna there was only the Central Crater.

The INGV – OE Control Room

This is the “Control Room” in Catania. All signals coming from remote multidisciplinary stations are transmitted to a unique Monitoring Centre in Catania. Researchers and on duty staff analyse data real time.

In case of significant events procedures immediately are activated.

The Italian CivilProtectionDepartment

The Civil Protection Department (L. 225/1992) has been grounded in the

offices of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers since 1982.

It has a guiding role, in agreement with regional and local governments,

of projects and activities for the prevention, forecast and monitoring of

risks and intervention procedures that are common to the whole system.

The Department coordinates the response to natural disasters,

catastrophes or other events - events of C type - that intensity and

extent, should be faced with extraordinary powers and means.

Moreover, also in agreement with the regional governments and local authorities, working in the

drafting of legislation on the prevention of risks and regulatory measures needed to cope with

disasters and minimize damage to people and property.

It promotes drills, national and international training projects and activities that contribute to

spreading the culture of civil protection.

The ash Fallout: method and procedures



|

• Great ash production

• Ash injection in the atmosphere

• Tephra fallout in urban settlements



|

• both citizens and municipalities remove the ash

• postponing the removal problem

• eventually remobilizing a lot of fine ash in the air
