18 May 2017, Pozzuoli, Italy - The Solfatara of Pozzuoli is the volcano of Campi Flegrei, situated an area north of Naples made up of about 40 ancient volcanoes. The research, published in Nature Communications, finds that the periods of unrest occurring intermittently since the 1950s – namely small-scale, local earthquakes and ground uplifts – have led to the accumulation of energy within the volcanic crust and an increased susceptibility to eruption.
