High-res seismic imaging provides detailed internal view of Campi Flegrei caldera
A small international team of volcanologists has built a more detailed picture of the Campi Flegrei caldera's internal structure using high-resolution seismic imaging and results from rock physics experiments conducted on core samples collected from deep wells.

A less-forceful eruption occurred in 1538-recent enough that evidence provided by locals survives. Many reported that significant ground uplift had occurred leading up to the eruption. Over the past 75 years, researchers have noted episodic uplift, suggesting another eruption may be imminent. [...]
In their work, the researchers found no evidence of a magma buildup, suggesting an eruption any time soon appears unlikely. Instead, blasts of steam will likely occasionally make their way to the surface as pressure builds in the steam chamber, perhaps at times allowing the uplift to recede.
