On 20 April 1988 a landslide of approximately 200,000 m3 occurred on the northeastern flank of the volcano La Fossa on the island of Vulcano. The landslide fell into the sea, producing
a small tsunami in the bay between Punte Nere and Punta Luccia that was observed locally in the neighbouring harbour called
Porto Levante. The slide occurred during a period of unrest at the volcano that was monitored very accurately. The study of
this event is composed of two parts, the simulation of the landslide and the simulation of the ensuing tsunami; the former
is studied by means of a Lagrangian-type numerical model in which the landslide is seen as a multibody system, an ensemble
of material-deforming blocks interacting together during their motion; the latter is simulated according to the Eulerian view
by solving the shallow-water approximation to Navier-Stokes equations of fluid dynamics, with the incorporation of a forcing
term depending on the slide motion. Technically, the slide evolution is computed first, and this result is then used to evaluate
the excitation term of the hydraulic equations and to calculate the tsunami propagation. Computed wave fronts radiate both
toward the open sea, with rapid amplitude decay, and along the shore, in the form of edge waves that lose energy slowly. Comparison
between model outputs and observations can be carried out only in a qualitative way owing to the absence of tide-gauge records,
and results are satisfactory.

A singularly complete record exists for the eruptive activity of Etna volcano. The time series of occurrence of flank eruptions in the period 1600–1980, in which the record is presumably complete, is found to follow a stationary Poisson process. A revision of the available data shows that eruption durations are rather well correlated with the estimates of the volume of lava flows. This implies that the magnitude of an eruption can be defined directly by its duration. Extreme value statistics are then applied to the time series, using duration as a dependent variable. The probability of occurrence of a very long (300 days) eruption is greater than 50% only in time intervals of the order of 50 years. The correlation found between duration and total output also allows estimation of the probability of occurrence of a major event which exceeds a given duration and total flow of lava. The composite probabilities do not differ considerably from the pure ones. Paralleling a well established application to seismic events, extreme value theory can be profitably used in volcanic risk estimates, provided that appropriate account is also taken of all other variables. 相似文献
