Characterization of the response of spring-based relative gravimeters during paroxysmal eruptions at Etna volcano
Gravity time sequences collected at Etna volcano by continuously recording spring-based relative gravimeters showed significant variations in temporal correspondence with paroxysmal eruptions. Since the observed gravity variations can only be partially related to subsurface mass redistribution phenomena, we investigated the instrumental effects due to ground vibrations such as those that accomp...
متن کاملSpatially resolved SO2 flux emissions from Mt Etna
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 carried out in summer 2014, a period encompassing two eruptive episodes of the New South East Crater (NSEC) and a fissure-fed eruption in the upper Valle del Bove. We demonstrate that our vent-resolved SO2 flux time serie...
متن کاملFIFTEEN YEARS OF ERS AND ENVISAT DInSAR OBSERVATIONS AT MT. ETNA (ITALY) BY USING THE SBAS APPROACH
We exploited the Small BAseline Subset (SBAS) technique and computed ground displacement maps and time series by inverting 283 interferograms generated from the ascending and 289 from the descending orbits to reveal Mt. Etna surface deformation from 1992 to 2006. Our analysis shows that the volcano experienced magmatic inflation/deflation and radial spreading of the west, south and east flanks....
متن کاملWhy Does a Mature Volcano Need New Vents? The Case of the New Southeast Crater at Etna
Mature volcanoes usually erupt from a persistent summit crater. Permanent shifts in vent location are expected to occur after significant structural variations and are seldom documented. Here, we provide such an example that recently occurred at Etna. Eruptive activity at Mount Etna during 2007 focused at the Southeast Crater (SEC), the youngest (formed in 1971) and most active of the four summ...
متن کاملERS InSAR Observations of Mt. Etna volcano: Magma inflation and radial spreading
We present a synthesis of ERS-1 and ERS-2 differential SAR interferometry (InSAR) observations of Mt. Etna volcano over roughly the past ten years from 10022002. Through this time period Mount Etna underwent a cycle of eruptive activity starting with a large flank eruption that ended in March 1993, followed by two years quiescence, with resumed summit activity starting in the summer of 1995, cu...
