TL;DR: The authors show that Anak Krakatau exhibited an elevated state of activity several months prior to the collapse, including precursory thermal anomalies, an increase in the island’s surface area, and a gradual seaward motion of the southwestern flank.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new volcanic hotspot detection system, named Middle InfraRed Observation of Volcanic Activity (MIROVA), based on the analysis of infrared data acquired by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer sensor (MODIS), is described.

TL;DR: The volcano monitoring platform MOUNTS (Monitoring Unrest from Space), which aims for global monitoring, is presented, using multisensor satellite-based imagery, ground-based seismic data, and artificial intelligence (AI) to assist monitoring tasks and it is demonstrated that AI can play a key role in such monitoring frameworks.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a network of stations to perform systematic radon surveys at Stromboli volcano and found that radon emissions reflect changes in volcanic activity and exhibit increasing trends prior and during the last major eruptive cycles.

TL;DR: In this paper, a single empirical parameter, defined as the "radiant density" (c rad ; in J −m −3 ) is defined to express the efficiency of an active lava body to change its area and/or to insulate its inner core, thus modulating the heat radiated from the active surface.
