Chronology, morphometric analysis and grainsize distributions of the sequence of lahars that occurred on the ESE flank of Stromboli (Italy) in 2024 – 2025

Difference between May 2025 DSM and Aug. 2023 LiDAR DSM, with the most recent DEM hillshaded in background. The main drainage basins are also indicated by dashed lines and blue labels. Color scale indicates the elevation difference and labels mark the areas described in Table 2. Bevilacqua A., A.

Ballistic projectile hazard of major explosions and paroxysms at Stromboli (Italy) with uncertainty quantification – Part 2: Conditional and temporal probability maps

This pair of manuscripts (2025-6539 and 6540) constitute a significant step forward in the modelling of ballistic hazards from volcanic explosive activity at a volcano that has an unparalleled dataset (collated by these authors, building on previous work) and where there is considerable tourist activity particularly in the summer…
