Resume Les aléas et les risques géomorphologiques dams la region du Vesuve-Somma ne sont pas exclusivement lies aux evenements volcaniques et sismiques, mais aussi aux inundations. Les archives historiques revillent que ces dernières sont très fréquentes sur les pentes du Vesuve; les données climatiques indiquent qu'elles sont déclenchées par des precipitations d'environ 45-70 mm en deux jours ou 74 mm en trois jours, dont la période de retour est d'une a trois années. Sur les flancs du Somma, les inundations sont moins fréquentes que sur les pentes du Vesuve et se produisent a la suite de precipitations de 200 mm en trois jours dont la recurrence excède 30 ans. La vigueur du relief volcanique, les dénivellations et ['absence d'un système de drainage dense et hiérarchise sont les facteurs naturels les plus favorables aux inundations. Toutefois, les facteurs anthropiques jouent un role primordial. La croissance de la population et une urbanisation intensive ont caractérise surtout les bassins versants des piémonts méridionaux du Vesuve. La deforestation provoquée par l'urbanisation, les modalities de la recuperation des terres agricoles et l'accroissement des surfaces imperméabilisées ont considérablement modifie la capacité de ruissellement de surface et ont donc accru les risques d'inondation.
Abstract Geomorphological hazards and risks in the Somma-Vesuvius area are not exclusively tied to the volcanic and seismic events, but also to flood events. Historical records show that floods are very frequent on the Vesuvius slopes and climatic data indicate that they are triggered by precipitation events of about 45-70 mm in two days or 74 in three days, which take place usually every 1 to 3 years. Data available show that floods on the Somma slopes are less frequent and they occur after precipitation events of about 200 mm in three days. These events have recurrence intervals longer than 30 years. The high amplitude of relief and the lack of dense and organized drainage systems are the most important natural factors of flood hazards. Nevertheless, anthropogenic factors play the primary role. Population growth and intense urbanization affected mainly the piedmont catchments of the Vesuvius southern slopes. The subsequent deforestation, the land reclamation practices and the spread placement of impermeable covers deeply modified surface runoff and enhanced flood hazards.
