Global volcanic unrest in the 21st century: An analysis of the first decade
16 Sep 2013 | Contributor(s): Jo Gottsmann, Rosa Sobradelo
We define volcanic unrest as the deviation from the background or baseline behaviour of a volcano towards a behaviour which is a cause for concern in the short-term because it might prelude an eruption. When unrest is preceded by periods of quiescence over centuries or millennia it is...

A PROBABILISTIC METHOD TO CALCULATE VOLCANIC SUSCEPTIBILITY
04 Sep 2013 | Contributor(s): Steffania Bartolini, A. Cappello, Joan Marti, Rosa Sobradelo, Stephanie Barde-Cabusson
In modern volcanology one of the most important aim is to perform hazard maps simulating different eruptive scenarios. The first step is to evaluate the spatial distribution of future vents, based on the past behavior of the studied area. Previous work were done using the kernel density...

HASSET: A probability event tree tool to evaluate future eruptive scenarios based on Bayesian Inference. Presented as a plugin for QGis
04 Sep 2013 | Contributor(s): Rosa Sobradelo, Steffania Bartolini, Joan Marti
Event tree structures constitute one of the most useful and necessary tools of modern volcanology to assess the volcanic hazard of future eruptive scenarios. They are particularly relevant to evaluate long- and short-term probabilities of occurrence of possible volcanic scenarios and their...

COMUNICATION PROTOCOLS QUESTIONNAIRE
04 Sep 2013 | Contributor(s): Alicia Felpeto, Joan Marti, Rosa Sobradelo
Barcelona Workshop 2013:Within WP8 activities, a questionnaire has been designed to collect information of the way the scientists and decision-makers transmit the information between them and to the population/media. We hope it will help us to identify different communication structures and...
