Volcanism is one of the main mechanisms transferring mass and energy between the
interior of the Earth and the Earth's surface. However, the global mass flux of lava, volcanic …

Abstract The Instituto Geofísico (IG-EPN) was created in 1983 by faculty of the Escuela
Politécnica Nacional, a public university in Quito, Ecuador, with the objective of assessing …

Abstract Global Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) measurements made over the past decades
provide insights into the lateral extent of magmatic domains, and capture volcanic process …

Volcanoes are hazardous to local and global populations, but only a fraction are
continuously monitored by ground‐based sensors. For example, in Latin America, more than …

This paper analyses the performance of SAR-based results to support emergency
management operations during the volcanic crisis of La Palma island. Tajogaite eruption …

Abstract Within Latin America, about 319 volcanoes have been active in the Holocene, but
202 of these volcanoes have no seismic, deformation or gas monitoring. Following the 2012 …

The extrusion rate of a lava dome is a critical parameter for monitoring silicic eruptions and
forecasting their development. Satellite radar backscatter can provide unique information …

Satellite monitoring of volcanic activity typically includes four primary observations:(1)
deformation and surface change,(2) gas emissions,(3) thermal anomalies, and (4) ash …

The estimation of the volume of volcanic flows during an ongoing eruption is challenging but
this information is crucial for improving risk assessment and for forecasting future events …

Satellite-based Earth observation plays a key role for monitoring volcanoes, especially those
which are located in remote areas and which very often are not observed by a terrestrial …
