Thank you to those of you who contributed descriptions of your work for the annual highlights reports. We are always interested in new work to highlight, if you publish something yourself, or see something in-print that would be worthy of…
The IMO (Icelandic Met Office) published the interferogram showing new dike intrusion on Reykjanes Peninsula and deformation associated with the M 5.47 earthquake on 31 July 2022. Through this interferogram, it’s possible to observe approximately 16 cm of northwestward displacement...
In the 2018, two earth scientists from Slovakia, Pavol Zahorec and Peter Vajda have teamed up with colleagues from Osservatorio Etneo, Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV) in Catania (Sicily), Daniele Carbone, Filippo Greco and Massimo Cantarero to conduct...
We are pleased to announce the launch of a volcano model verification and validation initiative “Drivers of Volcano Deformation” (DVD), sponsored by CONVERSE/IAVCEI/Modeling Collaboratory for Subduction. DVD Phase 1 consists of several exercises to test commonly used models for ground deformation at volcanoes. As forward and inverse models of volcano deformation increase in complexity, it...
IAVCE is piloting an eVolcano video project to curate and distribute Volcanology videos. Please consider contributing some content! The eVolcano pilot project includes peer-reviewed videos that are 20-30min long scientific lectures covering different fields and subjects in Volcanology, targeting the...
Geodesy is an important tool for exploring the geometry and temporal evolution of magma plumbing systems, as well as for monitoring and hazards assessment during volcanic unrest and eruption. Geodetic techniques include measurements of both deformation (to determine the magnitude, location, and geometry of subsurface sources of pressure change) and gravity (to assess subsurface mass variations). This IAVCEI Commission on Volcano Geodesy helps organize the diverse community and promote a better understanding of magmatic processes through geodesy.
