    Investigation into magma degassing at Nyiragongo volcano, Democratic Republic of the Congo (2008)
    American Geophysical Union
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-01-27
    Description: We report the first combined measurements of the composition and flux of gas emitted from Nyiragongo volcano by ground-based remote-sensing techniques. Ultraviolet spectroscopic measurements made in May/June 2005 and January 2006 indicate average SO2 emission rates of 38 kg s−1 and 23 kg s−1, respectively. Open-path Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic measurements obtained in May/June 2005, January 2006, and June 2007 indicate average molar proportions of 70, 24, 4.6, 0.87, 0.26, 0.11, and 0.0016% for H2O, CO2, SO2, CO, HCl, HF, and OCS, respectively. The composition of the plume was remarkably similar in 2005, 2006, and 2007, with little temporal variation in proportions of CO2, SO2, and CO, in particular, on the scale of seconds or days or even between the three field campaigns that span a period of 24 months. This stability persisted despite a wide range of degassing behaviors on the surface of the summit crater's lava lake (including discrete strombolian bursts and lava fountains) and variations in the SO2 emission rate. We explain these observations by a regime of steady state degassing in which bubbles nucleate and ascend in chemical equilibrium with the convecting magma. Short-term (seconds to minutes) temporal fluctuations in the SO2–HCl–HF composition were observed, and these are attributed to shallow degassing processes.

    Installazione di una sonda tipo “barasol” a Dagala (Etna) per la misura continua del flusso di radon dal suolo (13 Ottobre 2006) (2007)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-23
    Description: L’Unità Funzionale Vulcanologia e Geochimica della Sezione di Catania dell’INGV sta sviluppando una nuova tecnologia che permette il monitoraggio in continuo del Radon, un gas che cambia la sua concentrazione in dipendenza del flusso di gas dal suolo. Visto che il tasso di emissione di radon dal suolo è dipendente dalla dinamica sia del magma che delle faglie, si tratta di un parametro che ha una forte potenzialità per la sorveglianza dei vulcani. Per tale motivo l’INGV, nell’ambito della Convenzione 2004-2005 con il Dipartimento della Protezione Civile, ha finanziato un progetto mirato proprio allo sviluppo tecnologico e scientifico di questo tipo di ricerca (progetto V3_6/28 – Etna, coordinatori S. Gresta e P. Papale, resp. M. Neri), la cui prima fase è iniziata il 1° giugno 2005. Questa iniziale fase di lavoro si è concretizzata con l’installazione di una prima sonda tipo “barasol” per la misura continua dell’attività di radon nel suolo presso Torre del Filosofo. Una seconda sonda, acquistata con fondi della Sezione Roma 1 dell’INGV (resp. F. Quattrocchi), è stata installata nei pressi del piano di faglia della Pernicana (quota ~1500 m s.l.m.). Una terza sonda, acquistata con fondi della Sezione Catania dell’INGV, è stata installata nei pressi di Dagala. La presente nota descrive quest’ultima installazione.

    Volcanic sulphur dioxide fluxes from Etna, Vulcano and Stromboli measured with an automated scanning ultraviolet spectrometer (2008)
    AGU
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-06-07
    Description: Stromboli made in July 2002 from fixed positions, using an automated plume scanning technique. Spectral data were collected using a miniature ultraviolet spectrometer, and SO2 column amounts were derived with a differential optical absorption spectroscopy evaluation routine. Scanning through the plume was enabled by a 45 turning mirror affixed to the shaft of a computer controlled stepper motor, so that scattered skylight from incremental angles within the horizon-to-horizon scans was reflected into the field of view of the spectrometer. Each scan lasted _5 min and, by combining these data with wind speeds, average fluxes of 940, 14, and 280 Mg d_1 were obtained for Etna, Vulcano, and Stromboli, respectively. For comparative purposes, conventional road and airborne traverses were also made using this spectrometer, yielding fluxes of 850, 17, and 210 Mg d_1. The automated scanning technique has the advantage of obviating the need for time-consuming traverses underneath the plume and is well suited for longer-term telemetered deployments to provide sustained high time resolution flux data.

    Effects of a volcanic plume on thermal imaging data (2007)
    AGU
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Ground-based thermal imaging is becoming an increasingly important tool for volcano surveillance, however the impact of volcanic plumes on quantitative measurements of surface temperature has not been previously evaluated. Here we use a radiative transfer model to simulate gas (primarily H2O and SO2) and aerosol absorptions over the path between a thermal camera and a heat source on Stromboli volcano, Italy. A FTIR spectrometer was used to quantify path amounts of gases likely to be encountered when making thermal measurements of the active craters. We find that when using a camera sensitive from 7.5 to 13 mm, underestimates of 400 K may be produced when viewing a source with an actual temperature of 1200 K. Cameras that operate between 3 and 5 mm are somewhat less susceptible to these errors.

    Rapporto sulle misure di Mercurio effettuate sull’Etna nel periodo Novembre 2005 – Marzo 2006 e loro raffronto con altri parametri geochimici (2007)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: traccia nella troposfera, tende ad accumularsi nei processi biologici che seguono la sua deposizione. Il suo lungo tempo di residenza in atmosfera (circa 1 anno) combinato con la sua elevata tossicità, rendono tale elemento di primaria importanza per l’impatto ambientale, soprattutto nelle aree di maggiore emissione. Le emissioni di mercurio da aree vulcaniche attive sono considerate una delle principali sorgenti di mercurio verso l’atmosfera terrestre, insieme con le emissioni antropogeniche legate all’attività mineraria per l’estrazione del cinabro. L’entità del contributo vulcanico a scala regionale e globale rimane tuttavia altamente incerto. Le emissioni vulcaniche possono essere ricche in mercurio elementare gassoso (Hg0), mercurio gassoso reattivo (HgII) presente soprattutto come solfuro ed altre forme di mercurio che devono essere ancora determinate (Symonds et al., 1992; Nicholson, 1993; Barnes & Seward, 1997). L’Etna rappresenta una delle maggiori sorgenti potenzialmente in grado di fornire grandi quantità di Hg in atmosfera, grazie alle sue notevoli emissioni gassose dal plume craterico e dai fianchi (e.g., Ferrara et al., 2000). A partire dalla metà di Novembre 2005 si è reso disponibile un analizzatore portatile della concentrazione di mercurio in fase gassosa Lumex RA-915+ (Figura 1), in visione temporanea grazie all’accordo tra il distributore per l’Italia (Loccioni srl, Ancona) e la sezione di Catania dell’INGV ottenuto su interessamento personale di M. Burton. L’analizzatore si basa sul principio della spettrometria differenziale Zeeman di assorbimento atomico, ed utilizza la modulazione ad alta frequenza della polarizzazione della luce. Lo strumento è in grado di misurare concentrazioni di Hg in aria o in fase gassosa da 0 a 20.000 ng m-3 nella modalità a cella multi-percorso (limite di rilevabilità = 2 ng m-3), oppure da 500 a 200.000 ng m-3 nella modalità a cella singolo-percorso (limite di rilevabilità = 500 ng m-3). La misura viene effettuata mediante aspirazione del campione di aria o di gas all’interno dello strumento attraverso un tubo che, nel caso di gas del suolo o gorgogliante in acqua, viene opportunamente collegato, rispettivamente, ad una sonda inserita nel suolo o ad un imbuto posto sul punto di campionamento. Nel corso degli ultimi due mesi lo strumento è stato utilizzato sull’Etna per misure di Hg nell’aria in varie zone del vulcano, in gas del suolo emessi in due siti ubicati presso Santa Venerina e presso Paternò, in gas fumarolici presso la Torre del Filosofo e in gas gorgoglianti emessi dalle polle d’acqua delle Salinelle dello Stadio di Paternò. Purtroppo, le spesso avverse condizioni meteorologiche che hanno caratterizzato questo periodo, hanno impedito un più esteso utilizzo dell’analizzatore, così come era stato inizialmente preventivato

    SO2 flux from Stromboli during the 2007 eruption: Results from the FLAME network and traverse measurements (2010)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: SO2 fluxes emitted by Stromboli during the 27th February–2nd April 2007 effusive eruption were regularly measured both by an automatic network of scanning ultraviolet spectrometers and by traverse measurements conducted by boat and helicopter. The results from both methodologies agree reasonably well, providing a validation for the automatic flux calculations produced by the network. Approximately 22,000 t of SO2 were degassed during the course of the 35 day eruption at an average rate of 620 t per day. Such a degassing rate is much higher than that normally observed (150–200 t/d), because the cross-sectional area occupied by ascending degassed magma is much greater than normal during the effusion, as descending, degassed magma that would normally occupy a large volume of the conduit is absent. We propose that the hydrostatically controlled magma level within Stromboli's conduit is the main control on eruptive activity, and that a high effusion rate led to the depressurisation of an intermediate magma reservoir, creating a decrease in the magma level until it dropped beneath the eruptive fissure, causing the rapid end of the eruption. A significant decrease in SO2 flux was observed prior to a paroxysm on 15th March 2007, suggesting that choking of the gas flowing in the conduit may have induced a coalescence event, and consequent rapid ascent of gas and magma that produced the explosion.

    Unusually large magmatic CO2 gas emissions prior to a basaltic paroxysm (2010)
    AGU
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-02-03
    Description: An edited version of this paper was published by AGU. Copyright (2010) American Geophysical Union.
    Description: The low‐intensity activity of basaltic volcanoes is occasionally interrupted by short‐lived but energetic explosions which, whilst frequently observed, are amongst the most enigmatic volcanic events in Nature. The combination of poorly understood and deep, challenging to measure, source processes make such events currently impossible to forecast. Here we report increases in quiescent degassing CO2 emissions (〉10,000 t/day) prior to a powerful explosive event on Stromboli volcano on 15 March 2007. We interpret such large CO2 flux as being sourced by passive gas leakage from a deeply (〉4 km) stored magma, whose depressurization, possibly caused by the onset of an effusive eruption on 28 February 2007, was the explosion trigger. Our observations suggest that continuous CO2 flux monitoring may allow anomalously large explosions to be accurately forecast at basaltic volcanoes.

    Intercomparison of volcanic gas monitoring methodologies performed on Vulcano Island, Italy (2005)
    American Geophysical Union
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Volcanic gas emissions from fumaroles on the rim of La Fossa crater, Vulcano Island, Italy, were measured simultaneously using direct sampling (for H2O, CO2, total sulfur, HCl and HF), filter packs (for SO2, HCl, HF) and short-path active-mode FTIR measurements (for H2O, CO2,SO2, HCl and HF) in an intercomparison study in May 2002. The results show that Cl/F ratios were in good agreement between all three methods, and that FTIR and direct sampling determined comparable proportions of CO2 and H2O. Amounts of total S observed in direct sampling data were approximately double the amounts of SO2 measured with filter packs and FTIR. This difference could be attributed either to the fact FTIR and filter packs do not measure reduced sulfur species (e.g., H2S) or to sublimation of elemental S upon exit from the fumarole, after collection by direct sampling but before detection with FTIR and filter packs.

    Continuous soil radon monitoring during the July 2006 Etna eruption (2007)
    AGU
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Continuous soil radon monitoring was carried out near the Southeast Crater (SEC) of Mt. Etna during the 10-day July 2006 Strombolian-effusive eruption. This signal was compared with simultaneously acquired volcanic tremor and thermal radiance data. The onset of explosive activity and a lava fountaining episode were preceded by some hours with increases in radon soil emission by 4–5 orders of magnitude, which we interpret as precursors. Minor changes in eruptive behavior did not produce significant variations in the monitored parameters. The remarkably high radon concentrations we observed are unprecedented in the literature. We interpret peaks in radon activity as due primarily to microfracturing of uranium-bearing rock. These observations suggest that radon measurements in the summit area of Etna are strongly controlled by the state of stress within the volcano and demonstrate the usefulness of radon data acquisition before and during eruptions.

    Total volatile flux from Mount Etna (2008)
    AGU
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: The Total Volatile (TV) flux from Mount Etna volcano has been characterised for the first time, by summing the simultaneously-evaluated fluxes of the three main volcanogenic volatiles: H2O, CO2 and SO2.SO2 flux was determined by routine DOAS traverse measurements, while H2O and CO2 were evaluated by scaling MultiGAS-sensed H2O/SO2 and CO2/SO2 plume ratios to the UV-sensed SO2 flux. The time-averaged TV flux from Etna is evaluated at ~21,000 t∙day-1, with a large fraction accounted for by H2O(~13,000 t∙day-1). H2O dominates (≥70%) the volatile budget during syn-eruptive degassing, while CO2 and H2O contribute equally to the TV flux during passive degassing. The CO2 flux was observed to be particularly high prior to the 2006 eruption, suggesting that this parameter is a good candidate for eruption prediction at basaltic volcanoes.
