Bradyseism:
The speed of lift in the area of maximum deformation it returned to about 2 cm per month.
Il lift total recorded in Rione Terra (RITE) is about 123 cm since January 2011, of which 27 cm since January 2023 and 9 cm since January 2024.
This uplift exceeds by about 35 cm the maximum peak reached during the previous bradyseismic crisis of the 80s.
Geochemical activity:
Soil CO2 fluxes have not shown significant changes over the past week.
The temperature of a fumarolic emission in the Pisciarelli area is stable at around 95°C.
The CO2 flow measured monthly in the Solfatara confirms an increasing trend, with high values of around 5000 t/d.
