Volcano Monitoring Workshop – Cities on Volcanoes 7, Colima, Mexico

Volcano Monitoring Workshop – Cities on Volcanoes 7, Colima, Mexico
The variety of volcano monitoring techniques continues to expand at a great rate. In the search
for precursors, the more traditional areas of seismicity, geodesy and geochemistry are now
complemented by studies of acoustic or thermal emission, for example, and we are starting to
understand the significance of many other detectable geophysical signals. We have seen a
move to more remote techniques, which allow a wider coverage and a decreased risk for the
volcanologist. The applications for satellite data is increasing dramatically. Much more attention
is being placed on the accuracy of gas flux measurements and more advanced data analysis
techniques are enabling more complex models of sub-surface processes to be produced based
on seismic data.
This workshop will provide a glimpse of the state-of-the-art of the most important areas of
volcano monitoring. The day will be divided into eight themes with specialists presenting the
theory and practise of each one. Participants will receive a thorough coverage of how precursors
are being sought and interpreted on volcanoes located in many parts of the world. Sessions will
include details of each stage, from the installation of equipment and sampling techniques, how
the data is collected, processed and then applied to improve our understanding of volcano
unrest.
We hope to attract graduate students and observatory staff who require some refreshment of
what data is available, how it can be obtained and then integrated into models of volcano
behaviour.
The workshop will take place during the weekend prior to the Cities on Volcanoes 7 conference
on Saturday 17 November. Places are limited so please register as soon as possible. Cost: $50
or $25 for students including lunch
