Preface to “Understanding volcanic processes through geophysical and volcanological data investigations: some case studies from Italian sites (EGU2019 GMPV5.11 session, COV10 S01.11 session)”
2021
Abstract. Volcanic dynamics is driven by the complex interplay
between fluid flow (circulation of magmatic and/or hydrothermal fluids) and
rock structure (volcano conduits, dykes), the comprehension of which
requires both multi-parametric monitoring and modelling of relevant physical
and chemical processes of the system. Understanding the factors controlling
the dynamics of the processes involved in these interactions is necessary to
characterize the overall behaviour of a volcano and the eventual transition
mechanisms among stationarity, unrest phases and eruptive styles. The
starting point in this context is to have high-quality data of several
parameters (seismological, geochemical, geodetic, volcanological), acquired
both over years of monitoring activity and focused field experiments.
Fundamental contributions come from the use of combined multi-parametric
datasets and the adoption of innovative analysis techniques and
multi-disciplinary approaches. This Special Issue is addressed to those researchers, who focus their
investigations in the field of volcano dynamics. Its main purpose is to shed
light on the processes occurring in active volcanic systems over different
time scales, with relevant implications for the hazards and the modern
monitoring, thus promoting future discussions on this topic. The Issue
contains this introducing preface, which describes the Volume aims, and 14
papers, reflecting the main themes. The papers are devoted to the study of
some Italian sites, but the proposed approaches are general and therefore
applicable to any other volcanic/hydrothermal areas.
