Effect of the season on the hazard maps. Contours represent the probability of loading greater that 300 kg/m2, for the reference scenario. The ECMWF ERA Interim (ERAI) dataset was used. The areas enclosed by the 5 % probability contour is 1004, 861, 965 and 1008 km2, for Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, respectively. In the background are reported the “Red Zone” (hazard from pyroclastic flows and lahars) and the “Yellow Zone” (hazard from ash fallout) of the actual Emergency Plan of Vesuvius (DPC 2015; Regione Campania 2015)
