Understanding and forecasting phreatic eruptions driven by magmatic degassing

J Stix, JM de Moor - Earth, Planets and Space, 2018 - Springer
This paper examines phreatic eruptions which are driven by inputs of magma and magmatic
gas. We synthesize data from several significant phreatic systems, including two in Costa …

A review of controls on lava lake level: insights from Halema 'uma 'u Crater, Kīlauea Volcano

M Patrick, D Swanson, T Orr - Bulletin of Volcanology, 2019 - Springer
The height of the lava column is a fundamental measure of open-vent volcanic activity, but
little continuous long-term data exist to understand this parameter. The recent (2008–2018) …

Ultraviolet imaging of volcanic plumes: a new paradigm in volcanology

AJS McGonigle, TD Pering, TC Wilkes, G Tamburello… - Geosciences, 2017 - mdpi.com
Ultraviolet imaging has been applied in volcanology over the last ten years or so. This
provides considerably higher temporal and spatial resolution volcanic gas emission rate …

A new sulfur and carbon degassing inventory for the Southern Central American Volcanic Arc: The importance of accurate time‐series data sets and possible tectonic …

JM De Moor, C Kern, G Avard, C Muller… - Geochemistry …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
This work presents a new database of SO2 and CO2 fluxes from the Southern Central

A golden era for volcanic gas geochemistry?

C Kern, A Aiuppa, JM de Moor - Bulletin of Volcanology, 2022 - Springer
The exsolution, rise, expansion, and separation of volatiles from magma provide the driving
force behind both effusive and explosive volcanic eruptions. The field of volcanic gas …

Remote sensing of volcanic CO2, HF, HCl, SO2, and BrO in the downwind plume of Mt. Etna

A Butz, AS Dinger, N Bobrowski… - Atmospheric …, 2017 - amt.copernicus.org
Remote sensing of the gaseous composition of non-eruptive, passively degassing volcanic
plumes can be a tool to gain insight into volcano interior processes. Here, we report on a …

Measuring SO2 Emission Rates at Kīlauea Volcano, Hawaii, Using an Array of Upward-Looking UV Spectrometers, 2014–2017

T Elias, C Kern, KA Horton, AJ Sutton… - Frontiers in Earth …, 2018 - frontiersin.org
Retrieving accurate volcanic sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas emission rates is important for a
variety of purposes. It is an indicator of shallow subsurface magma, and thus may signal …

A Low-Cost Smartphone Sensor-Based UV Camera for Volcanic SO2 Emission Measurements

TC Wilkes, TD Pering, AJS McGonigle, G Tamburello… - Remote Sensing, 2017 - mdpi.com
Recently, we reported on the development of low-cost ultraviolet (UV) cameras, based on
the modification of sensors designed for the smartphone market. These units are built …

Intercomparison of SO2 camera systems for imaging volcanic gas plumes

C Kern, P Lübcke, N Bobrowski, R Campion… - Journal of Volcanology …, 2015 - Elsevier
SO 2 camera systems are increasingly being used to image volcanic gas plumes. The ability
to derive SO 2 emission rates directly from the acquired imagery at high time resolution …

Spatially resolved SO2 flux emissions from Mt Etna

R D'Aleo, M Bitetto, D Delle Donne… - Geophysical …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
We report on a systematic record of SO2 flux emissions from individual vents of Etna volcano
(Sicily), which we obtained using a permanent UV camera network. Observations were …
