Advances in ultraviolet remote sensing of volcanic gas plumes
As magma ascends towards the surface and the surrounding pressure from the rock drops, diluted gases (mainly C02, H20 and S02) are released and reach the surface prior to the magma itself. Accurate measurements of volcanic gases are thus essential in order to acquire an overview of the magmatic proc...
