    Description: In a volcanic crisis, authorized decision-makers must balance the social and economic costs of mitigating actions, such as evacuation, against the potential human losses if such actions are insufficient. In making their decisions, advice is needed from volcanologists on the eruption probability. Therefore, there should be a clear separation in the roles of volcanologists and decision-makers; the volcanologists should advise on the volcano hazard and alternative potential scenarios but refrain from involvement in making decisions. Currently, volcanologists are responsible for setting volcano alert levels. Given the small handful of distinct alert levels, there is inherent ambiguity and substantial uncertainty in the interpretation of individual levels. Furthermore, changing an alert level may automatically trigger actions by decision-makers. This would violate the principle of separation of responsibility and may result in unwelcome pressure being applied to volcanologists. Just as physicians can invoke medical ethics in resisting pressure to alter their advice, so volcanologists can invoke geoethics. Freedom to abide by their scientific beliefs is a basic tenet of geoethics.

    Description: Establishing sustainable and responsible speleotourism development is a major challenge and involves complex activities. Adequate theoretical starting point is the application of geoethical values related to the conservation and protection of the caves to be used for touristic purposes. Positive and negative cases of human behaviors towards speleological geoheritage are discussed, in order to highlight what should be done in cave management to avoid malpractices and on what elements could be founded adequate strategies aimed at promoting sustainable speleotourism. This is important to tourism management organizations involved in the promotion of caves and in creating economic opportunities for local populations, while respecting cave ecosystems. Modern cave management must be focused on the protection of the cave ecosystems, finding ways to achieve at the same time an economic development of local communities. But this approach needs the adoption of a geoethical framework of values to be shared by all stakeholders involved so that successful cooperation can be achieved despite differences in interests and expectations. The aim of this paper is to raise the awareness about the need to apply the values of geoethics to speleotourism, stimulating new fields of discussion within the scientific and technical communities involved in studies and activities related to geotourism and geoheritage. The possibilities of developing new ways to manage caves, in order to promote a sustainable socio-economic development of local communities, have to be balanced with the protection of natural environments as much as possible. The proposed theoretical frameworks have the goal to increase the discussion on the best ways of connecting speleotourism to sustainable and responsible cave management, presenting two case studies, and pointing out potential solutions.

    Description: Geoethics is an emerging and expanding field which is deepening its philosophical foundations and strengthening its interactions with other disciplines. Such expansion may be in tension with the need for geoethics to be a focused framework to support geoscientists in their work. There is also a risk of ‘geoethics’ being used as a catch-all term for reflection and research when considering human actions within the Earth system. The chapter reflects on how the scope of geoethics might be constrained. It suggests that geoethics might be framed as relating to the practices and values of any human agent as part of the Earth system, whereas the complementary notion of ‘geosophy’ could be used to refer to the broader considerations regarding human–Earth system interactions.

    Description: This deliverable refers to the “Ethical Guidelines” (EGs) for Research Infrastructures (RIs) developed and implemented by WP13. The EGs present a general framework of ethical values, to be used by each research infrastructure of the ENVRI community. They are a basis to design or to shape individual ethical guidelines taking into account RIs’ peculiarities with respect to their status, duties, activities, and goals. The EGs are structured in a main section, explaining general ethical values, and a subordinate section, where some delicate matters of interest for RIs are discussed from an ethical perspective. Ethical values included in the EGs refer to four ethical domains, affecting RI’s as a whole as well as individual scientists working at RIs. The domains mirror the ethical profile of each scientist/technician/administrator, his/her relationships with colleagues and their working environment, the interaction with society, and their obligations towards the Earth system. In addition to these four domains, the EGs discuss several issues which are considered to have a particular importance for the RIs: working environment, data life cycle, conflicts of interest, and relationship with decision-makers. Their balance is indispensable for a respectful and caring work environment and are needed to ensure a fair reflection of the institutional activities and results towards society. The EGs are the result of an extensive survey of relevant literature produced by scientific and professional organizations, institutions, and bodies focusing on applied ethics for research and other professional activities conducted at RIs.

    Description: The recent development of the concept ‘geoethics’ is a response by geoscientists to shape deeper engagement with their professional responsibilities and the wider societal relevance of geosciences. This introductory chapter outlines the development of geoethics to date, as a ‘virtue ethics’ focusing primarily on the role of the geoscientist, describes its meaning and function in relation to neighbouring fields and explores how to situate geoethics in relation to a wider range of issues that require ethical consideration. The emerging field of geoethics has already touched on many topics. This chapter reflects on the significance of geoethics as an effective operational toolkit for geoscientists, asking whether this functional purpose may be weakened if the range of matters considered under the term ‘geoethics’ becomes too wide.

    Description: In public research organizations in Italy, communication and outreach, as well as research support services, are often left to women. Consequently, the role which female staff plays, becomes central in communication processes both inside and outside the organization. An increasing number of female researchers have to abandon terms like “il ricercatore” (the researcher, used in the masculine form of the noun) or “man/month” in everyday language without fear of being diminished because of the use of feminine, nor of being discriminated while considered feminists. They should instead use inclusive expressions, taking into account gender, hence communicating real images of science and scientists. On the other hand, administrative documents should address the whole personnel, and not only to the ubiquitous “il dipendente” (the employee, masculine noun) opposed to “lavoratrici madri” (“mother-workers”). There is a plenty of opportunities to convey images of science meaning that research is performed both by women and men, and that consequences are addressed to women and men: activities with schools, seminars, outreach events and exhibitions, institutional communication and social networks. The responsibilities of an inclusive communication are numerous; they invest institutions and bodies in charge with structural changes in the organizations as well as those people who every day interact with users and participants of knowledge processes. Training as well as a daily practice are necessary. The paper comments some communication experiences in earth sciences, in progress at the National Institute for Geophysics and Volcanology of Italy – INGV.

    Description: L’articolo prende l’avvio da una rassegna di articoli scientifici sui rischi naturali fatta per comprendere quanto e come il genere entri negli studi attuali. Sono illustrati studi di caso in cui la variabile genere compare nell’impatto sociale dei fenomeni, ad esempio per gli effetti sulla salute e per la percezione dei rischi relativi; viene seguita la classificazione in rischi di natura geofisica (terremoti, eruzioni, tsunami), idrogeologica (inondazioni, frane), climatologica (siccità, incendi); meteorologica (tempeste, temperature estreme); sono presenti esempi non esaustivi ma significativi su scala globale (mondo) e locale (Italia). Infine, vengono proposte considerazioni per futuri sviluppi.

    Description: Nel 2012, a seguito della sequenza sismica in Emilia Romagna, l’INGV decise di migliorare la sua comunicazione sulla sismicità in corso creando un blog di informazione sui terremoti. L’esigenza di avere un prodotto di immediato utilizzo orientò la scelta sulla piattaforma Wordpress119, così da poter sfruttare i vantaggi del cloud e di un hosting affidabile. In effetti, nei primi giorni di pubblicazione, il blog “INGVterremoti120” (Figura 1) ebbe milioni di visualizzazioni di pagina senza nessuna interruzione del servizio. Negli anni successivi il blog si è consolidato come punto di riferimento della comunicazione della ricerca sui terremoti e dell’informazione in emergenza sismica, arrivando a superare ventuno milioni di visualizzazioni di pagina con una media annua di oltre un milione di visualizzazioni. Sulla scia del successo di INGVterremoti, nel 2018 sono stati aperti altri due blog, uno per ciascun Dipartimento, sulla stessa piattaforma: “INGVambiente121” e “INGVvulcani122” (Figura 1), con le stesse modalità del primo anche se con finalità leggermente diverse. In particolare il blog INGVambiente, che non offre informazioni legate alle emergenze e alla comunicazione delle stesse, ha come scopo principale la divulgazione di tematiche care al Dipartimento Ambiente con la pubblicazione regolare di un post a settimana. In modo simile a INGVterremoti, il blog INGVvulcani pubblica articoli relativi allo stato di attività dei vulcani in Italia e nel mondo e approfondimenti sulla ricerca vulcanologica del Dipartimento Vulcani e sul monitoraggio vulcanico effettuato dall’Osservatorio Vesuviano e dall’Osservatorio Etneo. Grazie al continuo e tempestivo aggiornamento sull’attività in corso, è diventato riferimento costante per i cittadini dell’area napoletana, di quella etnea e delle Isole Eolie. Nel 2012, per realizzare il blog INGVterremoti fu scelto un tema gratuito presente in Wordpress chiamato “Mystique”, molto utilizzato in quel periodo. Il tema prevedeva un’interfaccia molto semplice che riportava in homepage gli ultimi articoli pubblicati in ordine cronologico. La pagina era completata da una serie di widget sul lato destro per interagire con i post pubblicati attraverso i Tag e le Categorie degli articoli e per i collegamenti a informazioni esterne (feed terremoti, social media, link siti web, ecc.). Un menù in alto nella Home conteneva l’informazione statica, composta da una serie di pagine e sottopagine. Nel 2018, per i nuovi blog di INGVvulcani e INGVambiente fu, invece, scelto il tema “Apostrophe 2” con un’interfaccia simile al tema “Mystique” ma all’epoca più moderna e attuale. Anche in questi blog la disposizione della Home prevedeva una serie di widget sulla destra e le pagine dell’informazione statica nel menù.
