| Abstract | Occurrence of mixing processes among geothermal liquids, groundwater and sea water is recognized in alkali-chloride thermal springs of Phlegraean Fields, Southern Italy, Geochemical temperatures estimated by means of binary and ternary mixing models range between 210 to 280°C and refer most likely to the first geothermal "reservoir" existing in Phlegraean Fields. Such indications are in agreement with data provided by deep drilling and are relevant not only for geothermal development but also for surveillance of this active volcanic area. |
