Impact Forecasting to Support Emergency Management of Natural Hazards [PDF]

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 58, Issue 4, December 2020., 2020
Forecasting and early warning systems are important investments to protect lives, properties, and livelihood. While early warning systems are frequently used to predict the magnitude, location, and timing of potentially damaging events, these systems ...

Hazard assessment studies and multiparametric volcano monitoring developed by the Instituto Geológico, Minero y Metalúrgico in Peru

open access: yesVolcanica, 2021
Urban development in the areas surrounding active volcanoes has led to increasing risks in southern Peru. In order to evaluate the hazard, the Instituto Geológico, Minero y Metalúrgico (INGEMMET) created a Volcano Observatory (OVI) to carry out detailed ...

Volcanic monitoring and hazard assessment in El Salvador

open access: yesVolcanica, 2021
The Salvadorean volcanic range forms part of Central America Volcanic Arc and is located on the Pacific ring of fire. El Salvador is a country with at least twenty Holocene-active volcanic structures and where most of the population, including the ...

Monitoring of active volcanoes in Peru by the Instituto Geofísico del Perú

open access: yesVolcanica, 2021
Volcano monitoring in Peru is carried out by the Instituto Geofísico del Perú (IGP), through its Centro Vulcanológico Nacional (CENVUL). CENVUL monitors 12 out of 16 volcanoes considered as historically active and potentially active in southern Peru and ...

Thermal Remote Sensing for Global Volcano Monitoring: Experiences From the MIROVA System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Volcanic activity is always accompanied by the transfer of heat from the Earth’s crust to the atmosphere. This heat can be measured from space and its measurement is a very useful tool for detecting volcanic activity on a global scale.

High‐Resolution InSAR Reveals Localized Pre‐Eruptive Deformation Inside the Crater of Agung Volcano, Indonesia

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 128, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract During a volcanic crisis, high‐rate, localized deformation can indicate magma close to the surface, with important implications for eruption forecasting. However, only a few such examples have been reported, because frequent, dense monitoring is needed.

Quantifying Parametric Uncertainty Effects on Tropical Cloud Fraction in an AGCM

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
Abstract The underestimation of cloud fraction, especially the low stratus cloud (LSC) fraction over the eastern oceans, remains a problem in most atmospheric global climate models. This study investigated potential improvements through perturbing nine moist physical parameters, using uniform sampling and Latin hypercube sampling methods, and ...

Recovery of early meteorological records from Extremadura region (SW Iberia): The ‘CliPastExtrem’ (v1.0) database

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, Volume 9, Issue 2, Page 207-220, November 2022., 2022
We provide instrumental meteorological data recovered for Extremadura region (interior SW Iberia), from 1826 to mid‐20th century. Meteorological variables such as air temperature, atmospheric pressure, precipitation, wind direction and humidity, among others, were retrieved.
