Abstract Volcanoes are hazardous to local and global populations, but only a fraction continuously monitored by ground‐based sensors. For example, in Latin America, more than 60% of Holocene volcanoes unmonitored, meaning long‐term multiparameter data sets volcanic activity rare sparse. We use satellite observations degassing, thermal anomalies, surface deformation spanning 17 years at 47 the most active America compare these archived Global Volcanism Program.

Within Latin America, about 319 volcanoes have been active in the Holocene, but 202 of these no seismic, deformation or gas monitoring. Following 2012 Santorini Report on satellite Earth Observation and Geohazards, Committee Satellites (CEOS) developed a 4-year pilot project (2013-2017) to demonstrate how observations can be used monitor large numbers cost-effectively, particularly areas with scarce instrumentation and/or difficult access. The aims improve disaster risk management (DRM) by...

As our ability to detect volcanic unrest improves, we are increasingly confronted with the question of whether has a magmatic origin (magma on move) or non-magmatic from change in hydrothermal system (fluids that not magma tectonic processes. The cause critical implications for potential eruptive hazard (e.g. used constructing Bayesian Event Trees), but is frequently subject debate, even at well-studied systems. Here, propose set multi-disciplinary observations and numerical models could be...

Abstract The 2018 Sierra Negra eruption resulted in meter‐scale subsidence due to basaltic magma extraction from a deflating reservoir. was also characterized by dike intrusions, >4 M W earthquakes, and sulfur dioxide emissions.

Abstract Anticipating volcanic eruptions remains a challenge despite significant scientific advancements, leading to substantial human and economic losses. Traditional approaches, like volcano alert levels, provide current states but do not always include eruption forecasts. Machine learning (ML) emerges as promising tool for forecasting, offering data-driven insights. We propose an ML pipeline using volcano-seismic data, integrating precursor extraction, classification modeling,...

The Nevados de Chillán volcanic complex, located in the Southern Volcanic Zone of Andes, is one most active volcanoes Chile. Its recent eruptive cycle began 2016 and lasted seven years until January 2023, with a explosivity index (VEI) level 2. This sequence best instrumentally recorded eruption Chile to date, encompassing small vulcanian eruptions, formation new crater (called Nicanor), dome growth collapse, effusion lava flows, seismic activity characterized primarily by...

Abstract Eruptive activity shapes volcanic edifices. The formation of broad caldera depressions is often associated with major collapse events, emplacing conspicuous pyroclastic deposits. However, subsidence may also proceed silently by magma withdrawal at depth, more difficult to detect. Ambrym, a basaltic island, hosts 12-km wide and several intensely-degassing lava lakes confined intra-caldera cones. Using satellite remote sensing deformation, gas emissions thermal anomalies, combined...

Abstract Cordón Caulle is a large fissural volcano that has erupted rhyodacitic magma of the same composition in its past three historical eruptions 1921, 1960, and 2011–2012. There was significant ground deformation observed before during 2011–2012 eruption—here we use C X band interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) time series results to document posteruptive uplift up 0.8 m between March 2012 May 2015, with line‐of‐sight rates 45 cm/yr have been largely aseismic, along...

Abstract Two distinct types of rare crystal-rich mafic enclaves have been identified in the rhyolite lava flow from 2011–12 Cordón Caulle eruption (Southern Andean Volcanic Zone, SVZ). The majority are coarsely crystalline with interlocking olivine-clinopyroxene-plagioclase textures and irregular shaped vesicles filling crystal framework. These interpreted as pieces magma mush underlying a crystal-poor rhyolitic body that has fed recent silicic eruptions at Caulle. A second type porphyritic...

The 2011–2012 eruption at Cordón Caulle, Chile offers an exceptional opportunity to investigate topographic evolution of a laccolith, lava flows, and tephra during after rhyolitic eruptions using satellite TanDEM-X Plèiades data. We find distinct phases: rapid surface uplift from the laccolith (June–August 2011) (June 2011–March 2012), followed by reduction in elevation (up 19 m yr−1) until February 2013, slower subsidence all deposits 2019 (the most recent data). spatial distribution...

Summary Free fatty acids (FFA) and lipid protein oxidation changes during ripening were studied in Torta del Casar cheese. This cheese with protected designation of origin (PDO) is made from raw ewe milk uses vegetable rennet. Cheeses analysed at four different stages 1, 30, 60 90 days. Most FFA significantly increased throughout maturation, except valeric margaric acids. Acetic acid content was the most abundant end ripening. Short chain (SCFA) showed an important increase especially...

Abstract The VEI 4 rhyolitic eruption of Cordón Caulle volcano in 2011–2012 was immediately followed by ∼0.77 m exponentially decaying uplift during 2012–2015. In this study, we present evidence additional transient pulses inflation with interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) time series 2016–2018. We also assess whether the 2012–2015 can be explained viscoelastic relaxation or not. InSAR detected ∼12 cm 2016–2017 and ∼5 2017–2018. three episodes have very similar spatial scales...
