The number of VLP seismic events (standard values 5-12) is high, 13.5 events/hour.

The amplitude of seismic tremor is high.

The infrasonic activity is medium. The acoustic pressure of explosions is high, 1.4 bar (standard values <1 bar). The amplitude of puffing is medium, ~34 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: no rockfalls detected.

SO2 flux in the NE sector of the crater terrace is low, 47 t/d

CO2 flux based on the C/S is not available

Indice di Attività Vulcanica: medium

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

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. In the last 24h, the Stromboli volcano showed a MEDIUM degassing activity (puffing/spattering with values of about 34 mbar). The explosive activity is HIGH (max acoustic pressure 1.4 bar). The volcanic tremor shows MEDIUM values. The number of VLP events shows HIGH values (13.5 events/hour). MODIS/VIIRS thermal data show no thermal anomalies. SO2 flux shows LOW values (last: 47 t/d recorded on the 16/04/2026), CO2 flux shows no new data. The rockfall activity is LOW (no events detected). The volcanic activity index is MEDIUM.
