ATHENS American and Greek scientists working together to create a geomorphologic map for the tourist hot spot of Santorini to “enhance hazard assessments” on the southeastern Aegean island said it’s “at high risk for volcanically- and seismically-induced hazards.”
The scientists, whose paper on the subject was published in the Journal of Maps on March 2, applied planetary geologic mapping methods to submarine data to create an onshore-offshore geomorphologic map of the Christiana-Santorini-Kolumbo Volcanic Group, said Kathimerini.
“Submarine geomorphologic maps are used to provide geologic context and spatial information on landforms and related geo-hazards for risk management,” their abstract said.
