Dear all,
We would like to draw your attention to geochemical monitoring of volcanic systems.
In order to promote fruitful discussions on the topic, we warmly invite you to submit an abstract to our session at the 2023 EGU General Assembly (Vienna, Austria, 23-28 April 2023).
The abstract submission deadline is 10 January 2023, 13:00 CET.
GMPV9.3
Geochemical monitoring of volcanic systems: methods, findings, and perspectives.
Convener: Marcello Liotta | Co-conveners: Fátima Viveiros, Carlo Cardellini
The understanding of geochemical processes occurring in volcano systems is the driver for the scientific community and Civil Protection agencies towards an effective geochemical monitoring of volcanic activity. Volatile emissions provide the opportunity to infer information on magma degassing that drives the unrest, the eruption activity and its style. In light of this, scientists study the chemical and isotope composition of different types of gas emissions (volcanic plumes, fumaroles and soil emissions) and waters (groundwater, crater lakes, geysers etc.). Many valuable monitoring activities are carried out all around the world by the members of the scientific community thus contributing to the volcanic risk mitigation. In addition, the study of volcanic gases represents a valuable tool to evaluate the impact of volcanic emissions into the atmosphere, characterize the geothermic potential of the areas, identify and characterize outdoor and indoor gas hazard.
We are seeking contributions from any geochemical studies on various topics including (but not limited to):
Soil degassing;
Fumaroles emissions;
Volcanic plumes;
Dissolved gases;
Thermal waters;
All methodological approaches, from the most traditional to the most innovative ones are welcome.
