DRIFTS Sensor: Soil Carbon Validation at Large Scale (Pantelleria, Italy)

A fast and accurate measurement of soil carbon is needed in current scientific issues. Today there are many sensors suitable for these purposes, but choosing the appropriate sensor depends on the spatial scale at which the studies are conducted. There are few detailed studies that validate these types of measures allowing their immediate use. Here it is validated the quick use of a sensor in ex...

Sulfur Degassing from Mt. Erebus Volcano, Antarctica

SO2 emission rates from Erebus volcano show periodicity, which directly relates to lava lake convection and magma and conduit processes. Mt. Erebus is a 3794 m stratovolcano with a persistently degassing convecting, phonolite lava lake. Lava lake SO2 emission rates were collected from 1992 to 2003 using the correlation spectrometer (COSPEC) and in 2003 and 2005 using a miniature ultra-violet di...

Early hydrous melting and degassing of the Martian interior

[1] This study investigates the solidus and near-solidus phase relations of a Martian model mantle composition over the pressure range of 1–3 GPa and 775–1000!C. The presence of H2O has a tremendous effect on the solidus temperature of the Martian mantle, which decreases from 975!C at 1 GPa down to 800!C at 3 GPa. We use the results of this experimental investigation to explore the consequences...

Long-term explosive degassing and debris flow activity at West Mata submarine volcano

WestMata is a 1200mdeep submarine volcano where explosive boninite eruptions were observed in 2009. The acoustic signatures from the volcano’s summit eruptive vents Hades and Prometheus were recorded with an in situ (~25m range) hydrophone during ROV dives in May 2009 and with local (~5 km range) moored hydrophones between December 2009 and August 2011. The sensors recorded low frequency (1–40 ...
