  • Artificial intelligence (AI) detected over 54,000 earthquakes at Campi Flegrei volcano from 2022 to 2025, while traditional methods found only 12,000.
  • A clear ring-shaped fault was discovered around Pozzuoli, where the ground is rising by about 10 centimeters (4 inches) per year.
  • Two hidden faults were found converging beneath Pozzuoli, increasing the potential for magnitude 5 earthquakes.
  • All detected earthquakes were shallow, occurring at depths less than 4 kilometers (2.5 miles).
  • There is no evidence of magma moving toward the surface, indicating no imminent eruption signs.
