Morphology

imperturbably = imperturbable (transparent) = im + perturb + able + ly

Standard adverbial formation from the adjective 'imperturbable' (-ly); the adjective itself is transparently negated ('im-' + 'perturb' + '-able').

Etymology

Imperturbably breaks into im- meaning 'not' and perturb meaning 'to disturb', the same 'turb' you see in turbulent. So to act imperturbably is to stay calm and not be shaken, not easily upset.
