The number of VLP seismic events (standard values 5-12) is high, 13.1 events/hour.
The amplitude of seismic tremor is medium.
The infrasonic activity is medium. The acoustic pressure of explosions is medium, 1 bar (standard values <1 bar). The amplitude of puffing is low, ~30 mbar.
Tiltmeters analysis recorded at 3:00 UTC an infation signal with a duration of 4 minutes related to a major explosion
Thermal activity of explosive events is low. The number of thermal transients in the NE sector of the crater (standard = 100) is low, 59. The amplitude of thermal transients is low, 10 ºF. Exit velocity of pyroclasts, estimated through thermal camera analysis, is medium, 26 m/s.
MODIS thermal anomalies are not available.
Rockfall activity is low. The number of rockfalls is 4 per day.
SO2 flux in the NE sector of the crater terrace is low, 66 t/d
CO2 flux based on the C/S of 19.9 mesured at 20:20 UTC on 2020/07/18 is low, 66 t/d
