A great part of Campania Region, whose capital is Naples, is mantled by non lithified unsaturated granular soils of pyroclastic nature which cover even very steep slopes.

Abstract
A great part of Campania Region, whose capital is Naples, is mantled by non lithified unsaturated granular soils of pyroclastic nature which cover even very steep slopes. These are subjected to different types of rainfall-induced landslides, including catastrophic flowslides. Bearing on the results of recent research on the mechanics of rainfall-induced landslides and on a detailed survey of the geomorphological and lithological features of pyroclastic deposits, is proposed a preliminary macro-zoning of areas which are susceptible to flowslide.File in questo prodotto:
