The number of VLP seismic events (standard values 5-12) is medium, 11.1 events/hour.

The amplitude of seismic tremor is medium.

The infrasonic activity is high. The acoustic pressure of explosions is low, 0.26 bar (standard values <1 bar). The amplitude of puffing is medium, ~50 mbar.

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

Thermal activity of explosive events is not available. The number of thermal transients in the NE sector of the crater(standard = 100) is not available. The amplitude of thermal transients is not available. Exit velocity of pyroclasts, estimated through thermal camera analysis, is not available.

MODIS thermal anomalies: no thermal anomalies.

Rockfall activity is low. The number of rockfalls is 2 per day.

SO2 flux in the NE sector of the crater terrace is low, 17 t/d

CO2 flux based on the C/S of 19.24 mesured at 09:20 UTC on 2025/05/17 is medium, 456 t/d

Indice di Attività Vulcanica: medium

  • Seismic (VLP) rate MEDIUM
  • Seismic tremor MEDIUM
  • Puffing MEDIUM
  • Acustic pression of explosions LOW
  • Thermal activity NOT AVAILABLE
  • SO2 flux LOW
  • CO2 flux MEDIUM
  • Rockfall activity LOW

The volcanic activity was characterized by Strombolian explosions and degassing (puffing/spattering) located at NE/SW crater sectors. In the last 24h, the degassing activity showed HIGH values (50 mbar). The acoustic pressure of the explosions showed MEDIUM values (max acoustic pressure 0.26 bar). The volcanic tremor showed MEDIUM values. The number of VLP events is MEDIUM (11.1 events/hour). MODIS/VIIRS thermal data didn't show thermal anomalies. SO2 flux shows LOW values (last: 17 t/d ). The CO2 flux, estimated using a C/S ratio of 19.24 measured on 17/05/2025 at 09:20 UTC, shows MEDIUM values (456 t/d). The number of rockfall is LOW (2 events detected in the last 24h having LOW seismic pseudo-volumes involved). The volcanic activity index is MEDIUM.
