The number of VLP seismic events (standard values 5-12) is medium, 10 events/hour.
The amplitude of seismic tremor is high.
The infrasonic activity is medium. The acoustic pressure of explosions is low, 0.21 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 low, 30. The amplitude of thermal transients is high, 211 ºF. Exit velocity of pyroclasts, estimated through thermal camera analysis, is low, 12 m/s.
MODIS thermal anomalies are low: 3 MW (01:20 UTC yesterday).
Rockfall activity is high. The number of rockfalls is 26 per day.
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: high

The volcanic activity is generally characterized by few strombolian explosions with MEDIUM pressure (max 0.21 bar) and mainly located at the NE crater sector. Degassing (puffing/spattering), located at the NE crater sector, is characterized by MEDIUM pressure values (about 30 mbar). The seismic tremor is HIGH. The number of VLP events is MEDIUM (10 events/hour). The analysis does not show any significant deformation of the volcanic edifice. The number of explosions (thermal transients) is HIGH, with a HIGH thermal amplitude and LOW exit velocity of pyroclasts. MODIS/VIIRS thermal data show LOW thermal anomalies. SO2 flux was not evaluated. CO2 was not evaluated. The rockfall activity is HIGH (26 events detected with LOW to MEDIUM pseudo-volumes associated). The volcanic activity index is HIGH.
