At present, there are two high-temperature fumarolic fields: the Eastern (up to 665 °C) and the Western (up to 840 °C), both associated with a fissure in the lava plug caused by a weak 2001 explosion. The paper presents chemical and isotopic compositions (H-O-C-S) of the directly sampled fumaroles over the period 2013–2023, mainly from the Eastern field. We revealed seasonal variations of water isotopic composition and concentrations of some components of the gas. High-temperature gases from Avacha volcano are characterized by chemical and isotopic compositions typical for volcanoes in subduction zones, but with a slightly increased content of H₂O, a reduced content of HCl. A relatively high concentration of methane is noted in the gases of low-temperature field. Methane in high-temperature gas with δ¹³C(CH₄) = −16.8 ‰ has abiogenic origin. For high-temperature gases, their redox state (H₂/H₂O and CO/CO₂) is controlled mainly by the sulfur gas buffer (H₂S/SO₂); methane is not chemically equilibrated. The molar ratio C/S ∼ 1 is typical for volcanoes in the Kuril-Kamchatka Arc. The measured fumarolic temperatures at the Eastern field are descending over time from 626 °C in 2013 to 410 °C in 2023. The apparent equilibrium temperatures calculated for reactions that include CO, CO₂, H₂, H₂O, H₂S and SO₂ are generally higher than the measured temperatures and do not show the descending trend. However, calculated equilibrium temperatures for the H₂O-CO-CO₂-CH₄ system are very close to the measured temperatures. Two periods of the increased seismic activity which occurred from 2013 to 2023, in November 2014–January 2015 and October–December 2019, correlated with changes in the morphology and gas flow rates at the Western fumarolic field.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54753,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research","volume":"455 ","pages":"Article 108179"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142168124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In doing so, we explore how local knowledge on volcanism is produced and circulated through communities' ongoing affective encounters with volcanoes. Through ethnographic fieldwork and semi-structured interviews, we draw on the heterogeneous experiences and narratives of Malalcahuello residents living next to the Lonquimay volcanic complex in the Southern Andes of Chile. Its last eruption in 1988–1990 formed a new cone on the NE flank, called Navidad (<em>Christmas</em>), which has allowed residents to experience active volcanism in a twofold sense: being affected by its impacts during the eruption, and responding affectively to the volcano in everyday life. The results pave the way for a typology of affect-based ways of knowing volcanism. These are constituted by multiple people's viewpoints: 1) knowing the ground, 2) knowing the territory, 3) knowing the risk, and 4) knowing the behaviour. These ways of knowing vary according to, and are in part determined by, the different rhythms of the volcano itself. Therefore, active volcanism becomes a more-than-human agent of knowledge through its rhythmic presence in people's everyday lives. Over time, the local population has become affectively attuned to both ‘hazardous situations’ related to volcanic eruption and ‘risk and safe situations’ during volcanic quiescence. These attributes of human-volcano encounters turn hazardous spaces into affect-laden spaces at different times, raising the need to rethink spatio-temporal dimensions in knowledge dialogue and disaster risk reduction. Overall, the paper underlines the importance of affect-oriented risk research in Chile and worldwide to account for the pre-existent viewpoints from which a volcano is at the heart of people's concerns.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54753,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research","volume":"454 ","pages":"Article 108180"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0377027324001720/pdfft?md5=24055024fbb09226adae3e2d331c7f0a&pid=1-s2.0-S0377027324001720-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142148590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the geological complexity of these regimes can hinder the efficient exploitation of this renewable resource. As useful as geophysical surveys are in understanding the subsurface, models can be unconstrained due to the lack of realisitic data. Here, we present the results of a new laboratory study measuring permeability and P-wave velocity on altered lavas, volcaniclastic sediments and limestones samples obtained from three cores retrieved from the MON-3 well, drilled in the Montserrat geothermal field. By measuring these parameters at increasing effective pressure varying from 10 to 70 MPa, we found permeability stress senstivity factors varying from 0.006 to 0.122 MPa⁻¹ and increases in P- wave velocity between 2 and 20 %. The highest permeability stress senstivity factor and largest increase in P-wave velocity found in altered lavas were interpreted to be as a result of the easy closure and deformation of slit shaped microfractures and smectite clays characteristic of low bulk modulus. Conversely, lowest permeability stress senstivity factors and smallest increases in P-wave velocity found in volcaniclastic sediments, were coincident with intergranular pore geometries and higher bulk modulus minerals such as quartz and illite-smectite that may enhance the rigidity of the rock. Additionally, by measuring permeability and P-wave velocity on samples cored perpendicular (vertical) and parallel (horizontal) to the axis of the core, we found higher permeability senstivity factors (0.001–0.05 MPa⁻¹ higher) and P-wave velocity increases (1–4 % higher) on horizontal samples, which is consistent with the preferential closure of horizontally oriented pore spaces. From this experimental study, we provide implications for enhancing geothermal energy recovery in Montserrat. Overall, our findings can be utilized to help improve on geophysical and numerical models of volcanic geothermal regimes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54753,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research","volume":"454 ","pages":"Article 108177"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142148589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous source studies only targeted VT events, which were found to have quite heterogeneous focal mechanisms. In this paper, we perform for the first time the source inversion of LF seismicity at Mt. Vesuvius, analysing 27 LF events recorded from 2012 to 2021 with the aim to investigate their source processes. Given the challenges of analysing weak LF earthquakes, we implement a specific moment tensor (MT) inversion approach that combines the fit of displacement seismograms in the time domain and amplitude spectra in the frequency domain. The inversion is simultaneously performed for the source depth and moment tensor components in the 2–7 and 2–5 Hz frequency band, assuming either a full or deviatoric MT representation. Source parameter uncertainties are estimated by using a Bayesian bootstrapping scheme. Our results confirm a larger depth of LF events compared to VTs and show a strong heterogeneity of the LF seismic sources, which present various rupture types, different orientations and heterogeneous, whilst poorly resolved, non-double-couple components. The MT variability is qualitatively confirmed by significant differences among the recorded waveforms. The heterogeneity of both VT and LF source processes is attributed to complex source processes in a highly fractured seismogenic volume submitted to a heterogeneous stress field.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54753,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research","volume":"454 ","pages":"Article 108173"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142048009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Silica-rich magmas are too viscous for exsolved gas bubbles to escape the system through buoyant forces alone, and so volatile overpressure is often released through deformation-related processes. Here we present a case study on magma emplacement-related deformation in a shallow (∼500 m depth) rhyolite intrusion (the Sandfell laccolith, Eastern Iceland) to investigate the establishment of degassing (volatile exsolution) and outgassing (gas escape) networks in silicic sub-volcanic intrusions. We observe viscous and brittle deformation features: from vesiculated flow bands that organized into ‘pore channels’ in the ductile regime, to uniform bands of tensile fractures (‘fracture bands’) that grade into breccia and gouge in the brittle regime. Through field mapping, structural analysis, and anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) measurements, we show that areas with higher degrees of brittle deformation are proximal to abruptly changing AMS fabrics, and flow band orientations and point to laccolith-wide strain partitioning in the magma. We associate the changes in flow fabrics and the intensity of brittle deformation to the transition from dominantly horizontally flowing magma during initial sill-stacking to up to the NE magma flow linked to the propagation of a trap-door fault from the N to the SE. The establishment of intrusion-scale brittle permeable networks linked to changes in strain partitioning that facilitated magma flow during different stages of laccolith growth would have profoundly assisted the outgassing of the entire laccolith. Magmatic fracturing captures viscous and brittle processes working in tandem as an efficient outgassing mechanism, and should be considered in sub-volcanic intrusions elsewhere.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54753,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research","volume":"454 ","pages":"Article 108166"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0377027324001586/pdfft?md5=41adc5299e3afef48b103515b8a39e99&pid=1-s2.0-S0377027324001586-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142040847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The MER is also an important site to gain insights into tectonic processes as it captures the transition from continental rifting (to the south) to incipient seafloor spreading (to the north). Peralkaline magmas account for around 90% of the volcanic products found in the MER. Determining the conditions under which these magmas evolve is critical to understanding rift-related volcanism and its associated hazards. Corbetti Caldera has an extensive record of large-scale, predominantly aphyric, peralkaline rhyolite eruptions. However, little is known about the mafic magmas from which these highly differentiated melts have evolved. Here we present data from the only basaltic deposit found within the caldera, coupled with whole rock, glass and mineral analysis of the peralkaline products, to investigate magma storage conditions at Corbetti. We demonstrate that magma mixing played a role in the evolution of the basaltic magmas and use RhyoliteMELTS modelling to show Corbetti's peralkaline magmas likely evolved at pressures between 100 and 250 MPa, from a magma with an initial water content of 0.5–1 wt%, at or below the QFM buffer. Mineral hygrometry on the sparse crystal populations corroborates the RhyoliteMELTS modelling, suggesting that the basaltic magma had 0.1–1.2 ± 0.32 wt% H₂O, and the peralkaline magmas an average of ∼5.5 ± 1.25 wt% H₂O.
