Satellite and Ground Based Thermal Observation of the 2014 Effusive Eruption at Stromboli Volcano

摘要: As specifically designed platforms are still unavailable at this point in time, lava flows usually monitored remotely with the use of meteorological satellites. Generally, satellites have a low spatial resolution, which leads to uncertain results. This paper presents first long term satellite monitoring active on Stromboli volcano (August–November 2014) high resolution (160 m) and relatively temporal (~3 days). These data were retrieved by small Technology Experiment Carrier-1 (TET-1), was developed built German Aerospace Center (DLR). The instrument is dedicated temperature event monitoring. observations accompanied field conducted thermal cameras. provided short time flow dynamics validation for data. TET-1 27 datasets over during its effusive activity. Using radiant density approach, used calibrate MODVOLC estimate averaged discharge rate. With mean output rate 0.87 m3/s three-month-long eruption, we total erupted volume be 7.4 × 106 m3.
