The aim of this video is to consider the variety of volcanic landforms and the eruptive hazards in southern Italy. In visiting locations in the Bay of Naples, Sicily and the Aeolian Islands, this video interweaves narrative with interviews of local people affected by recent eruptions, expert guides and scientists tasked with monitoring Italy’s active volcanoes. The film considers the threats from future eruptions as well as the considerable benefits afforded to local people living in the shadow of some of Europe’s most iconic volcanoes.
In this video, we cover:
The causes and impacts of recent and historic volcanic eruptions, with visits to some of the localities directly affected
Informative diagrams to support the study of the complex processes associated with the destructive plate margin in southern Italy
Scientific assessments of volcano monitoring and community preparedness
Consideration of the possible impacts associated with the future volcanic eruptions
Positive impacts of volcanic eruptions on the local people
This video is suitable for all ages. It will act as an excellent support in the study of tectonic hazards particularly at GCSE and AS/A Level.
