Randomized trial analyzes tectonic control on CO2 emissions in an active volcanic region, suggesting significant interactions.

The study aims to investigate how tectonic structures influence soil CO2 emissions in a volcanic system.
Analyzed continuous soil CO2 flux records over 20 years.
Conducted periodic surveys across a fixed measurement grid.
Investigated data from volcanic unrest periods and related earthquakes.
A clear tectonic signal was evident at the Faraglione site post the 2010 M 4.8 earthquake, with increased soil CO2 flux.
Two anomalous phases in soil CO2 emissions were identified in September 2010 and January 2011, aligning with regional tectonic structures.
Data from 2021 unrest confirmed that tectonic frameworks significantly control fluid release during volcanic activity phases.

Gregorio et al. (2026) studied this question.
