The aim of the work is to proceed to the recognition of asbestos phenomenon in Campania and in the other regions with emphasis on the incidence and development of several related diseases. Using data from first INAIL Annual Report on the progress of occupational diseases until 1999, and the data provided by the INAIL CSA regarding the last 12 years (2000 to 2011), the incidence is illustrated for two-year periods, from 2000 to 2011, for the total of diseases and separately for: asbestosis, mesotheliomas, lung cancer and non-cancerous pleural lesions. The total of diseases by region for the period 2000-2011 has been reported. The survey results show a gradual increase in the total asbestos related diseases (15,998) due to the mesotheliomas portion (5739) while the trend of lung cancer is stationary (2,287). Pleural plaques have a variable growth in the various regions during recent years. Some significant case studies from Campania are reported.

Carbonate parameters data were collected during summer 2019 and combined winter 2011. During winter, acidification is primarily driven by rising atmospheric CO₂, with minimal impact from biological processes.
