The number of VLP seismic events (standard values 5-12) is high, 12.3 events/hour.

The amplitude of seismic tremor is medium.

The infrasonic activity is medium. The acoustic pressure of explosions is low, 0.2 bar (standard values <1 bar). The amplitude of puffing is medium, ~57.4 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 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 medium. The number of rockfalls is 5 per day.

SO2 flux in the NE sector of the crater terrace is low, 27 t/d

CO2 flux based on the C/S is not available

The volcanic activity is generally characterized by strombolian explosions and degassing (puffing/spattering) located at the SW crater sector. In the last 24h, the Stromboli volcano showed a HIGH degassing activity (puffing/spattering with values of about 57 mbar). The explosive activity is LOW (max acoustic pressure 0.2 bar). The volcanic tremor shows MEDIUM values. The number of VLP events Increase to HIGH values (12.3 events/hour). MODIS/VIIRS thermal data shows no thermal anomalies. SO2 flux shows LOW values (last: 27 t/d recorded on the 17/01/2026), CO2 flux shows no new data (last: 337 t/d based on C/S value of 6.1 recorded on the 15/01/2026). The rockfall activity is MEDIUM (n.5 events detected with LOW pseudo-volumes associated). The volcanic activity index is MEDIUM.
