TL;DR: In this article, the authors used data collected from 1975 to 1987 to estimate carbon dioxide emissions from the summit craters and the upper flanks of the volcano and found that the average output of CO2 from summit crater degassing is 13±3 Tg yr−1, an order of magnitude higher than the annual CO2 output from Kilauea, Hawaii, and representative arc volcanoes.

TL;DR: In this article, air-borne measurements of the plume flux of Stromboli volcano during 1980-93 show that the volcano emits very large amounts of gas, mostly by open-conduit degassing between explosive outbursts, while exuding little basalt.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors decipher the origin and mechanisms of the second eruption from the composition and volatile (H2O, CO2, S, Cl) content of olivine-hosted melt inclusions in explosive products from its south flank vents.

TL;DR: Spectroscopic measurements performed during both quiescent degassing and explosions on Stromboli volcano are used to demonstrate that gas slugs originate from as deep as the volcano-crust interface (∼3 kilometers), where both structural discontinuities and differential bubble-rise speed can promote slug coalescence.

TL;DR: In this paper, the concentrations and fluxes of major, minor and trace metals were determined in 53 samples of groundwaters from around Mt Etna, in order to evaluate the conditions and extent of alkali basalt weathering by waters enriched in magma-derived CO 2 and the contribution of aqueous transport to the overall metal discharge.
