The 3d edition of “Introduction to Volcanic Seismology” is published already by Elsevier
Dear All,
I am glad to inform that the third, revised and extended, edition of my book “Introduction to Volcanic Seismology” (559 p) is published already by Elsevier both in print and electronic formats. The book describes the main types of seismic signals at volcanoes, their nature and spatial and temporal distributions at different stages of eruptive activity. Following the success of the first two editions, published in 2003 and 2012, the third edition consists of 20 chapters. All the chapters of the 2nd edition were strongly revised and one new chapter about the natural seismicity of hydrothermal structures was added.
The book begins with an introduction to the history and topic of volcanic seismology, discussing the theoretical and experimental models that were developed for the study of the origin of volcanic earthquakes. The next part of the book is devoted to the study of volcano-tectonic earthquakes. Four chapters give the theoretical basis for the occurrence of volcano-tectonic earthquakes and their swarms and describe the case stories of volcano-tectonic activity associated with the eruptions at basaltic, andesitic, and dacitic volcanoes. There were selected the 40 cases of volcanic eruptions (or episodes) at 20 volcanoes that occurred all over the world from 1910 to 2005. Chapters 8 to 10 describe the general regularities of volcano-tectonic earthquake swarms, their participation in the eruptive process, their source properties, and the hazard of strong volcano-tectonic earthquakes.
Seven chapters form a part of the book devoted to the description of eruption earthquakes. Here is given the theoretical basis for the occurrence of eruption earthquakes together with the description of volcanic tremor, the seismic signals associated with pyroclastic flows, rockfalls and lahars, and volcanic explosions, long-period and very-long-period seismic signals at volcanoes, micro-earthquake swarms, and acoustic events. The relationship between these seismic signals and the eruptive process is discussed.
The last three chapters discuss the mitigation of volcanic hazard and include the methodology of seismic monitoring of volcanic activity, the examples of forecasting of volcanic eruptions by seismic methods, the description of seismic activity in the regions of dormant volcanoes and the seismic activity at hydrothermal systems in volcanic environments.
This book will be useful as a text-book for students and practitioners of volcanic seismology in understanding the essential elements of volcanic eruptions and represents a good base for a course of lectures on Volcanic Seismology for graduate and undergraduate students. It was given already by author during 2004-2016 in Spanish and English in Argentina, China, Czech Republic, México, India, Saudi Arabia, and the United States. I am ready to contact with the universities and scientific centers to give this course as a Visiting Professor during 2017-2018. My e-mail address is vzobin@ucol.
