Mid-distal occurrences of the Albano Maar pyroclastic deposits and their relevance for reassessing the eruptive scenarios of the most recent activity at the Colli Albani Volcanic District, Central Italy
The Late Pleistocene Albano Maar hosted the most recent volcanic activity of the Colli Albani Volcanic District, represented at nearventsections by a thick pyroclastic succession of seven units clustered in two main eruptive cycles dated at around 70–68 and 41–36 kaB.P., respectively. Recent stratigraphic investigations allowed us to recognise a pyroclastic succession comprising four eruptive unitswidely spread in the northeastern sectors of the Colli Albani volcano, up to 15km eastward from the Albano Maar. Integratedtephrostratigraphic, morpho-pedostratigraphic, archaeological, petrological and geochemical analyses enable us to recognise them asdistal deposits of the first, third, fifth and seventh Albano Maar eruptions, enlarging significantly their previously supposed dispersionarea. Further tephrostratigraphic studies in central Apennine area, allowed us to identify the Albano Maar products in Late Pleistocenedeposits of several intermountain basins, extending still further the dispersion area of distal ash fallout as far as 100–120km from thevent. On the basis of the identification and the study of these previously unrecognised mid-distal Albano Maar deposits, a reappraisal ofthe eruptive scenarios and related energetic parameters is proposed.
