Abstract Episodes of volcanic tremor provide valuable insights into the dynamics of subsurface processes at active volcanoes. Previous studies have suggested that evolving tremor properties may relate to changes in the stress conditions of the plumbing system. However, a strong causative link has remained elusive.

The large-scale surface uplift in the Altiplano-Puna region of Bolivia: A parametric study of source characteristics and crustal rheology using finite element analysis [PDF]
This paper focuses on the driving mechanism behind a 70 km wide region of ground uplift centered on Uturuncu volcano, in the Altiplano-Puna region of southern Bolivia.

Abstract Fluids can modify the mechanical properties of rocks, including shear strength and strain behavior. We investigate the timing and magnitude of seismic events during fault motion in strike–slip systems across the Peloritani Mountains (northeastern Sicily) and Aeolian Archipelago using GNSS and seismological data analysis.

Volcanic gas emissions from the summit craters and flanks of Mt. Etna, 1987-2000
In the last 13 years gas emissions from both the summit and the flanks of Mount Etna volcano have been monitored using remote sensing techniques (COSPEC, and FTIR since 2000) and on-site monitoring devices.

Dike Arrest Identification by Reverse Focal Mechanisms: Evidence From Etna Eruptions
Abstract Real‐time prediction of dike behavior during an eruption remains a significant challenge. Determining the timing and location of dike propagation arrest is crucial for hazard evaluation. The inherent complexity of eruptive phenomena makes rapid, unambiguous interpretation through modeling difficult.

Ionospheric Disturbances During the 4 December 2015, Mt. Etna Eruption
Abstract This study presents the detection and characterization of co‐volcanic ionospheric disturbances (CVIDs) associated with Mt. Etna's large‐scale lava fountain (Italy). Leveraging a dense and proximal GNSS network, we identify local Total Electron Content (TEC) perturbations extending up to ∼ ${\sim} $200 km south/southwest of the vent.

Evidence for ground motion polarization on fault zones of Mount Etna volcano [PDF]
During local and regional earthquakes, an evident amplification of horizontal ground motion is observed at two seismological stations near the Tremestieri fault, on the southeastern flank of Mount Etna volcano. Rotated component spectral ratios show a narrow spectral peak around 4 Hz along a N40°E direction.

Abstract Satellite observations have enabled an important advance in the near‐real‐time quantification of the dynamic parameters of the volcanic plume spreading in the atmosphere. However, the link between these observations and the estimation of eruption source parameters, such as the mass eruption rate (MER), remains a scientific obstacle to be ...

Abstract Several missions to Venus have recently been selected for launch, opening a new era for the exploration of the planet. A key question these missions seek to address is whether Venus is geologically active today. Detecting active volcanism on Venus would contribute to a better understanding of volcanic and atmospheric processes on Earth.

Ground deformation patterns at Mt. Etna from 1993 to 2000 from joint use of InSAR and GPS techniques [PDF]
Combined GPS measurements and radar interferometry (InSAR) have been applied at Mt. Etna to study the ground deformation affecting the volcano both over the long- (1993-2000) and short-term (1997-1998 and 1998-2000).
