Use of a portable topographic mapping millimetre wave radar at an active lava flow. [PDF]

, 2006
A ground-based millimetre wave radar, AVTIS (All-weather Volcano Topography Imaging Sensor), has been developed for topographic monitoring. The instrument is portable and capable of measurements over ranges up to ∼7 km through cloud and at night.

The seismogenic source of the 2018 December 26th earthquake (Mt. Etna, Italy): A shear zone in the unstable eastern flank of the volcano

, 2021
The 2018 December 26th earthquake (MW = 4.9) at the south-eastern slope of Mt. Etna provides new insights for improving the knowledge of the kinematics of the eastern flank of the volcano.

Thermal weakening of the carbonate basement under Mt. Etna volcano (Italy): Implications for volcano instability [PDF]

Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2013
Abstract The physical integrity of a sub-volcanic basement is crucial in controlling the stability of a volcanic edifice. For many volcanoes, this basement can comprise thick sequences of carbonates that are prone to significant thermally-induced alteration. These debilitating thermal reactions, facilitated by heat from proximal magma storage volumes,

Geochemical dataset from Mt Etna volcano

, 2021
The reported dataset is annexed to the article “Intense overpressurization at basaltic open-conduit volcanoes as inferred by geochemical signals: the case of the Mt Etna December 2018 eruption”, where all the technical details about the measurement methods can be found. It consists of five types of parameters: soil CO2 flux from Mt Etna flanks, CO2/SO2

Modeling the Crystallization and Emplacement Conditions of a Basaltic Trachyandesitic Sill at Mt. Etna Volcano [PDF]

Minerals, 2019
This study documents the compositional variations of phenocrysts from a basaltic trachyandesitic sill emplaced in the Valle del Bove at Mt. Etna volcano (Sicily, Italy). The physicochemical conditions driving the crystallization and emplacement of the sill magma have been reconstructed by barometers, oxygen barometers, thermometers and hygrometers ...

Benchmarking and developing numerical Finite Element models of volcanic deformation [PDF]

, 2014
Volcanic deformation during an unrest episode can provide valuable insights into potential magmatic plumbing system dynamics. Paramount to this is a model linking the recorded ground movement to the causative source at depth.

Exploring the Kinematic Structure of Mount Etna Volcano (Sicily, Italy) by Deformation Analysis and Gravity Gradient Tensors

, 2022
Ground deformation monitoring of active volcanoes is used routinely to determine phases of vol‐ cano unrest and can provide insights in the evolving plumbing system of a volcano and the influence local tectonics structures have on the volcano tectonic ...

A message from the ‘underground forge of the gods’: history and current eruptions at Mt Etna

, 2021
Mt Etna has made headlines over the last weeks and months with spectacular eruptions, some of them highly explosive. This type of paroxysmal eruptive behaviour is characteristic of Etna’s activity over the past few decades and so it is no surprise that ...
