Presentation transcript:

Stromboli, Italy Carl Lipani Jabari Hurdle-Price Department of Geology Colby College

Basic Info o Stratovolcano o Sciara del Fucco o “Stream of Fire” o 2 km in Diameter o Elevation: 924 m o Aeolian Islands o African Plate and Eurasian Plate Subduction Zone

Tectonics

Mount Etna Theory: a microplate called the Ionian Plate broke and pushed into the Eurasian Plate, creating an opening in the Earth connecting to the mantle

Continued Hawaiian volcanoes are: - Mostly basaltic - Mafic magma - On top of a hot spot It is strange that Mt. Etna and Stromboli are so basaltic and have mafic magma

Eruptions Active Eruptions for 2,000+ years Intervals from minutes to hours daily Major Eruptions: 1919, 1930, 2003 Strombolian

“Lighthouse of the Mediterranean”

Rocks and Deposits o Major rocks: o Potassium rich basalt and andesite o Minor rocks: o Tephrite basanite

Interesting info In Jules Verne’s novel Journey to the Center of the Earth (Voyage au Centre de la Terre), Axel and Otto Lidenbrock emerge from their subterranean journey from the volcano on Stromboli Stromboli the movie! Stromboli the Food! 3/03/08/stromboli-1950-roberto-rossellini/ to-buy-a-geologist-for-christmas-2012-edition/ s/f/f1/HomemadeStromboliAug05.jpg

Tourism Villages have a population of 500 people More than 7,000 residents inhabit the island during the summer The hike from the villages to the summit normally takes three hours of hiking Very rare to get hurt or die from the volcano
