4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4 From: Diego Coppola <diego.coppola@xxxxxxxx> Dear Colleagues, We are pleased to announce the opening of one PhD position at the Earth Science Department â?? University of Turin (Italy) in thermal remote sensing of volcanic activity: - Main supervisor: Diego Coppola (diego.coppola@xxxxxxxx) - Topic: Integration of multisensor thermal data for monitoring volcanic activity - Start date: from 1 November 2022 to 31 October 2025 - Duration: 3 years *Project Title*: Integration of multisensor thermal data for monitoring volcanic activity *Short Description*: Volcano observatories increasingly use thermal remote sensing to monitor quiescent and active volcanoes. This research topic aims to integrate the infrared data acquired by multiple sensors on board NASA/NOAA and ESA platforms (eg MODIS, VIIRS, SLSTR, OLI, MSI) within MIROVA (Middle Infrared Observations of Volcanic Activity), a near real-time volcanic hot spots detection system (https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.mirovaweb.it__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!eLpMRorSXYCxLnR79__tlVPVcEhbRvz75h8YBPcEwy8GooghcenF0-w-n87pEb0O_-gmgkysisdGmrcG$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.mirovaweb.it__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!cmL08nttSRtdhz0AkWQJGycm9uj-jN4exL1Nal3k8j0FO4d1AZYQKeM9nE99zbEevhTnUkrTjlcbuo6ZjnT3Fpk$>). The objective will be to estimate the radiant heat flux produced by different types of volcanic activity (fumarolic activity, Strombolian activity, lava flows, lava domes, lava lakes), by using a multi-sensor approach. The analysis of the results on a global scale and of case studies, will allow exploring the various benefits that this integration can bring in the detection of precursory signals and in the monitoring of effusive eruptions. The doctorate is part of the new National Doctorate in Earth Observation (NDEO) coordinated by the La Sapienza University of Rome (Italy): https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://phd.uniroma1.it/web/NATIONAL-PHD-COURSE-IN-EARTH-OBSERVATION_nD3862_EN.aspx__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!eLpMRorSXYCxLnR79__tlVPVcEhbRvz75h8YBPcEwy8GooghcenF0-w-n87pEb0O_-gmgkysitiBZRWg$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://phd.uniroma1.it/web/NATIONAL-PHD-COURSE-IN-EARTH-OBSERVATION_nD3862_EN.aspx__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!cmL08nttSRtdhz0AkWQJGycm9uj-jN4exL1Nal3k8j0FO4d1AZYQKeM9nE99zbEevhTnUkrTjlcbuo6ZQPTk0yw$> **Timeline*.
