A satellite view of volcanoes finds the link between ground deformation and eruption
Bristol, UK (SPX) Apr 04, 2014 - ESA's Sentinel satellite, due for launch on April 3rd, should allow scientists to test this link in greater detail and eventually develop a forecast system for all volcanoes, including those that are remote and inaccessible. Volcano deformation and, in particular, uplift are often considered to be caused by magma moving or pressurizing underground. Magma rising towards the surface could be ... more
