The volcanic activity is characterized by Strombolian explosions located at NE crater sector and degassing (puffing/spattering) located at NE and SW crater sectors. In the last 24h, degassing activity (puffing/spattering) showed MEDIUM values (30 mbar). The explosive activity is HIGH (max acoustic pressure 1.6 bar). The volcanic tremor shows MEDIUM values. The number of VLP events is HIGH values (19.1 events/hour). MODIS/VIIRS thermal data shows no thermal anomaly in the last 24 hours. SO2 flux shows MEDIUM values (last: 82 t/d), CO2 flux is MEDIUM (last: 409 t/d). The rockfall activity is HIGH (n. 13 events detected with LOW pseudo-volumes associated). The volcanic activity index is HIGH.
