TL;DR: Careful historical observation and monitoring of Kīlauea enabled successful forecasting of hazardous events, and cyclic inflation, deflation, and eventual collapse of the summit was tied to lava eruption from lower East Rift Zone fissures.

TL;DR: The supply of magma to Kīlauea Volcano, Hawai'i, was thought to have been steady over the past decades as discussed by the authors, but instead, the supply from the mantle doubled in 2003-2007, implying that hotspots can provide varying amounts of lava over just a few years.

TL;DR: 3-D deformation reconstruction through the combination of conventional InSAR and MAI will allow for better modeling, and hence, a more comprehensive understanding, of the source geometry associated with volcanic, seismic, and other processes that are manifested by surface deformation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the contributions of satellite SAR imagery to volcano science, monitoring, and hazard mitigation, and explore the future potential for SAR in volcanology, which can then be used to develop new models of how volcanoes work and to improve quantitative forecasts of volcanic activity as a means of mitigating risk from future eruptions.

TL;DR: The results of geodetic monitoring since 2002 at Sierra Negra volcano in the Galapagos Islands show that the filling and pressurization of an ∼2-km-deep sill eventually led to an eruption that began on 22 October 2005.
