ITER active volcano research group is developing a geochemical monitoring program for volcanic surveillance of the Canary Islands where volcano monitoring has been mainly performed by means of conventional geophysical methods. Establishing a multidisciplinary approach (geophysics and geochemistry) for volcano surveillance is one of our goals for reducing risk in the Canaries.<\/p>\n


(1) Teide volcano (Tenerife Is.)<\/b><\/p>\n

CONTINUOUS GEOCHEMICAL MONITORING<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Continuous monitoring of soil CO2, He, H2, and flux measurements at the summit of Teide volcano. Data is daily transmitted by GSM.<\/li>\n
  • Continuous monitoring of dissolved gases in ground waters by means of quadrupole mass spectrometry (QMS) and alfa spectrometry in 2 observation sites of the volcanic aquifer of Tenerife. Data will be daily transmitted by GSM (starting in December 1999).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    NON-CONTINUOUS GEOCHEMICAL MONITORING<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Hydrochemical monitoring network of 4 observation sites for non-continous measurements of physical-chemical parameters in ground waters of the volcanic aquifer. Ground water samples have been collected weekly since May 1997.<\/li>\n
    • Integrated soil CO2 flux monitoring network of 24 observation sites situated along the three major volcanic rift-zones of Tenerife. Samples have been collected weekly since March 1997.<\/li>\n
    • Geochemical monitoring of fumarolic discharges from the summit of Teide volcano. Samples have been collected weekly since March 1997.<\/li>\n
    • Carbon dioxide diffuse degassing at the summit of Teide volcano releases about 380 tons\/day to the atmosphere. Mapping is performed every 3 years (first survey in 1998).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      (2) El Hierro volcano (El Hierro Is.)<\/b><\/p>\n

      NON-CONTINUOUS GEOCHEMICAL MONITORING<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Hydrochemical monitoring network of 2 observation sites for non-continuous measurement of physical-chemical parameters in ground waters of the volcanic aquifer. Ground water samples are collected weekly since March 1998.<\/li>\n
      • Integrated soil CO2 flux monitoring network of 24 observation sites situation along the three major volcanic rift-zones of Tenerife. Samples are collected weekly since March 1998.<\/li>\n
      • Carbon dioxide diffuse degassing at El Hierro volcano releases about 190 tons\/day to the atmosphere. Mapping is performed every 3 years (first survey in 1998).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        (3) Cumbre Vieja volcano (La Palma Is.)<\/b><\/p>\n

        CONTINUOUS GEOCHEMICAL MONITORING<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Continuous monitoring of dissolved gases in ground waters by means of quadrupole mass spectrometry (QMS) and alfa spectrometry in 1 observation site of the volcanic aquifer of La Palma. Data is daily transmitted by GSM since September 1998.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          NON-CONTINUOUS GEOCHEMICAL MONITORING<\/p>\n

            \n
          • Hydrochemical monitoring network of 2 observation sites for non-continuous measurements of physical-chemical parameters in ground waters of the volcanic aquifer. Ground water samples are collected weekly.<\/li>\n
          • Integrated soil CO2 flux monitoring network of 24 observation sites situated along the three major volcanic rift-zones of Tenerife. Samples are collected weekly.<\/li>\n
          • Carbon dioxide diffuse degassing at Cumbre Vieja volcano releases about 590 tons\/day to the atmospshere. Mapping is performed every three years (first survey in 1997).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            (4) Timanfaya volcano (Lanzarote Is.)<\/b><\/p>\n

            NON-CONTINUOUS GEOCHEMICAL MONITORING<\/p>\n

              \n
            • Carbon dioxide diffuse degassing mapping at Timanfaya volcano. Mapping will be performed every three years (First survey was slated for 1999).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
