The number of VLP seismic events (standard values 5-12) is very high, 20 events/hour.

The amplitude of seismic tremor is high.

The infrasonic activity is high. The acoustic pressure of explosions is medium, 1.99 bar (standard values <1 bar). The amplitude of puffing is low, ~30 mbar.

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

Thermal activity of explosive events is medium. The number of thermal transients in the NE sector of the crater (standard = 100) is high, 337. The amplitude of thermal transients is low, 1.56 ºF. Exit velocity of pyroclasts, estimated through thermal camera analysis, is medium, 20 m/s.

MODIS thermal anomalies are medium: 11 MW (00:42 UTC yesterday).

Rockfall activity is low. The number of rockfalls is 4 per day.

SO2 flux in the NE sector of the crater terrace is medium, 90 t/d

CO2 flux based on the C/S is not available

The volcanic activity is generally characterized by strombolian explosions and puffing located at NE crater sector. In the last 24h, the Stromboli volcano showed a MEDIUM degassing activity (puffing 30 mbar). The pressure of the explosions is HIGH (max acoustic pressure 1.99 bar). The number of thermal transients is HIGH, with LOW thermal amplitudes and MEDIUM pyroclast exit velocities. The volcanic tremor shows HIGH values. The number of VLP events shows VERY HIGH values (20.0 events/hour). MODIS/VIIRS images showed MEDIUM thermal anomalies (max 11 MW). The SO2 flux measured at the NE crater sector is MEDIUM (90 t/d). CO2 flux values are not available. The rockfall activity is LOW (4 events detected in the last 24h).The volcanic activity index is HIGH.
