The number of VLP seismic events (standard values 5-12) is high, 13 events/hour.
The amplitude of seismic tremor is medium.
The infrasonic activity is medium. The acoustic pressure of explosions is medium, 0.6 bar (standard values <1 bar). The amplitude of puffing is medium, ~35.8 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 are medium: 11 MW (12:12 UTC yesterday).
Rockfall activity is low. The number of rockfalls is 2 per day.

The volcanic activity is generally characterized by strombolian explosions located at the NE crater sector and degassing (puffing/spattering) located at NE and SW crater sectors. The surveillance cameras recorded spattering activity with overflow from the NE crater sector starting at 11:15 UTC on March 22. This activity is characterized by MEDIUM values of pressure with seismic tremor characterized by HIGH values In the last 24h, the Stromboli volcano showed a MEDIUM degassing activity (puffing/spattering with values of about 39 mbar). The explosive activity is MEDIUM (max acoustic pressure 0.6 bar). The volcanic tremor shows MEDIUM values. The number of VLP events shows HIGH values (13 events/hour). MODIS/VIIRS thermal data shows MODERATE thermal anomalies (Max 11 MW). SO2 flux shows LOW values (last: 62 t/d recorded on the 22/03/2026), CO2 flux shows no new data (last: 434 t/d based on C/S value of 7.67 recorded on the 18/03/2026). The rockfall activity is LOW (n.2 events detected with LOW pseudo-volumes associated). The volcanic activity index is MEDIUM.
