I am sorry to receive the news that Prof. Paolo Gasparini passed away on the night of July 28, 2016.
Prof Gasparini was emeritus at University Federico II in Naples, Italy.
His brilliant career was marked by numerous achievements in the fields of Geophysics and Volcanology, making him one of the most recognised scientists in Italy and worldwide.
He served as Vice President (1987-1991) and President (1991-1995) of IAVCEI.
