The phenomenon has generated alarm among the population, who have been living in a situation of uncertainty for some time
A new alarm was triggered this morning due to the seismic activity occurring in our country. In fact it doesn’t stop seismic swarm which has been gripping Southern Italy for several months now and with ever-renewed intensity and danger. We are faced with yet another shock in Naples, yet another occasion of fear for a population who, although aware of the geological conditions, lives in unnatural terror.
Today, fortunately, it was only a slight tremor that shook me this morning Phlegraean Fields at 12.10 pm, arousing the concern of residents who clearly felt the tremor. The seismic phenomenon, bradyseism, continues to depend on the volcanic origin of these local tectonic movements. It can be said that the population near the Campi Flegrei is somehow “used to it”, but the tremors continue and the phenomenon remains monitored.
The seismic phenomenon, of magnitude 1.3 on the Richter scale, had its epicenter in the area of Solfatara, near the Roman necropolis of Ponte Copin, nicknamed the “blue bridge”. The National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV), which boasts a sensor system right inside the Solfatara, promptly recorded the event.
The news also reached the Facebook group “Those of the red zone of the Campi Flegrei volcano“, which has now become a point of reference for the local community for three years, a period in which the area is affected by a bradyseism phenomenonor a rising of the ground due to an accumulation of magma underground.
Numerous users of the group have in fact shared their experiences, saying they felt the tremor in different areas, including the Puteola area, via Campana, Agnano and via Pisciarelli. Despite the limited extent of the earthquake, the phenomenon still generated a certain alarm among the population, who have long lived in a situation of uncertainty due to the volcanic activity of the Campi Flegrei.
