TL;DR: The 2002-03 Mt Etna flank eruption began on 26 October 2002 and finished on 28 January 2003, after three months of continuous explosive activity and discontinuous lava flow output.

TL;DR: Analysis of magmatic gas during a powerful lava fountain, measured with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy on Mount Etna, Sicily, reveals a fountain gas having higher CO2/S and S/Cl ratios than other etnean emissions, and which cannot derive from syn-eruptive bulk degassing of Etna basalt.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed that the hydrostatically controlled magma level within Stromboli's conduit is the main control on eruptive activity, and that a high effusion rate led to the depressurisation of an intermediate magma reservoir, creating a decrease in the magma levels until it dropped beneath the eruptive fissure, causing the rapid end of the eruption.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report increases in quiescent degassing CO2 emissions prior to a powerful explosive event on Stromboli volcano on 15 March 2007, and interpret such large CO2 flux as being sourced by passive gas leakage from a deeply (>4 km) stored magma, whose depressurization, possibly caused by the onset of an effusive eruption, was the explosion trigger.

TL;DR: The chemical composition of volcanic gas emissions from each of the four summit craters of Mount Etna was measured remotely in May 2001, using a Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer operated on the upper flanks of the volcano as mentioned in this paper.
