Abstract

A 1:10,000-scale geomorphological map of the Lipari volcanic island (Aeolian Archipelago – Italy) is presented in this paper. The associated map, which includes volcanic and epivolcanic landforms, is obtained combining the available geological information with data derived from the analysis of a digital terrain model, integrated with aerial photographic observations and field surveys. The map shows that the location of the main volcanic morphologies is strongly controlled by local tectonic structures striking NNW-SSE, while the epivolcanic morphologies are mainly related to the continuous uplift induced by the prevalence of regional tectonic processes. The aim of this work is to provide an improved geomorphological map, with a reasonably comprehensive overview of the landforms present in the most densely populated island of the Aeolian Archipelago. This map can be also used as a support for future studies of land management on the island.
