Originally published in 1995, Monitoring Active Volcanoes is a
comprehensive text which addresses the importance of volcano
surveillance in the context of forecasting eruptive activity and
mitigating its effects. The traditional core of seismic and ground
deformation monitoring is discussed, along with more innovative
techniques involving the recording of microgravity and
micromagnetic variations, and the changing compositions of volcanic
gases and liquids. The role of satellites is stressed, particularly
with regard to the capabilities for measuring surface deformation,
recognizing thermal anomalies and monitoring gas and ash plumes
from space platforms. This book provides an invaluable insight into
how and why volcanoes are monitored. It will be of interest to
volcanologists, geophysicists and earth scientists.
