1 MER from ground observations: practices and progresses at Osservatorio Etneo for measuring ash clouds-forming eruptions of the Etna volcano Mauro Coltelli INGV Osservatorio Etneo, Catania, Italy MeMoVolc Workshop on MER, Reykjavic 3-5 May 2016
2 Overview Ash clouds-forming eruptions of Etna volcano Etna s volcano monitoring system Ground-based eruption plume measurements of Etna s eruption plumes: Thermal and Visible cameras L, S and X Radars UV, Green and NIR Lidars
3 More the 200 ash plume forming eruptions in the last 35 years Airport/Air-traffic disruptions/problems from Guffanti et al, 2007, 2008, 2010 databases, updated 2001 Long lasting ash emission
4 Airports disrupted (>3 events): CATANIA, Italy (Etna) ANCHORAGE, Alaska (Spurr, Redoubt ) KAGOSHIMA, Japan (Sakura-jima) MANADO, Indonesia (Lokon, Soputan) MEXICO CITY, Mexico (Popocatepetl) QUITO, Ecuador (Pichincha, Reventador) Most dangerous volcanoes (>3 events): ETNA, Italy (Catania AP) SAKURA-JIMA, Japan (Kagoshima AP) POPOCATEPETL, Mexico (Mexico City AP) SOUFRIERE HILLS, Montserrat (8 airports) from Guffanti et al. (2003, 2007, 2008) updated databases
5 The last crisis: 46 lava fountain eruptions in 3 years ( ) 2011: 18 episodes from 12 January to 15 November 2012: 7 episodes from 5 January to 24 April : 13 episodes from 19 February to 24 April : 8 episodes from 26 October to 1 January 2014
6 The geophysical, geochemical and video-surveillance monitoring network of Mt Etna
7 Ash emission monitoring at Mt Etna: the ash cloud observations The VOLDORAD IIB (VOLcanic Doppler RADar) Ash fallout The PLUDIX (ash fallout sensor)
8 Ash emission monitoring at Mt Etna: the ash dispersal forecasting Ash cloud dispersal by computer simulation using 3 numerical models (Fall3D, PUFF//, VolCALPUFF) fully automatized daily, performing a 48h forecasting available on a webserver

17 The Lidar observations All the measurements were carried out by scanning the sky between 24 and 67 in azimuth since 10:45 GMT. The elevation was fixed.
18 The Lidar observations The depolarization shows high values (around 25%) inside the plume. It is notable that the layer looks quite homogenous.
19 The Lidar observations A scanning angular changing the elevation whit the azimuth fixed was carried out. The first measurement at 10:22 GMT shows a layer of aerosol with a polarization < 20%. Scollo et al., 2014
