The number of VLP seismic events (standard values 5-12) is medium, 10.6 events/hour.

The amplitude of seismic tremor is medium.

The infrasonic activity is medium. The acoustic pressure of explosions is low, 0.4 bar (standard values <1 bar). The amplitude of puffing is medium, ~80 mbar.

Tiltmeters analysis does not show any significant deformation of the volcano edifice

Thermal activity of explosive events is low. The number of thermal transients in the NE sector of the crater (standard = 100) is low, 29. The amplitude of thermal transients is low, 1.2 ºF. Exit velocity of pyroclasts, estimated through thermal camera analysis, is medium, 24 m/s.

MODIS thermal anomalies: no thermal anomalies.

Rockfall activity: no rockfalls detected.

SO2 flux in the NE sector of the crater terrace is not available

CO2 flux based on the C/S is not available

Indice di Attività Vulcanica: medium

The volcanic activity is generally characterized by strombolian explosions, with ash emissions, located at the NE crater sector, with puffing localized at the C and SW crater sectors. In the last 24h, the Stromboli volcano showed a HIGH degassing activity (puffing with values of about 80 mbar). The explosive activity is MEDIUM (max acoustic pressure 0.4 bar). The number of explosions (thermal transients) are LOW, with a LOW thermal amplitude and MEDIUM exit velocity of pyroclasts. The volcanic tremor shows MEDIUM values. The number of VLP events is MEDIUM (10.6 events/hour). MODIS/VIIRS images showed no thermal anomalies. No updated SO2 and CO2 flux values are available. The rockfall activity is LOW (zero events detected). The volcanic activity index is MEDIUM.
