This open access book summarizes the findings of the VUELCO
project, a multi-disciplinary and cross-boundary research funded by
the European Commission's 7th framework program. It comprises four
broad topics: 1. The global significance of volcanic unrest 2.
Geophysical and geochemical fingerprints of unrest and precursory
activity 3. Magma dynamics leading to unrest phenomena 4. Bridging
the gap between science and decision-making Volcanic unrest is a
complex multi-hazard phenomenon. The fact that unrest may, or may
not lead to an imminent eruption contributes significant
uncertainty to short-term volcanic hazard and risk assessment.
Although it is reasonable to assume that all eruptions are
associated with precursory activity of some sort, the understanding
of the causative links between subsurface processes, resulting
unrest signals and imminent eruption is incomplete. When a volcano
evolves from dormancy into a phase of unrest, important scientific,
political and social questions need to be addressed. This book is
aimed at graduate students, researchers of volcanic phenomena,
professionals in volcanic hazard and risk assessment, observatory
personnel, as well as emergency managers who wish to learn about
the complex nature of volcanic unrest and how to utilize new
findings to deal with unrest phenomena at scientific and emergency
managing levels. This book is open access under a CC BY license.
