MOUNTS volcano monitoring system

MOUNTS is a #volcano monitoring system exploiting @CopernicusEU #Sentinel1 #Sentinel2 #Sentinel5P and #artificialintelligence to recover key parameters informing on volcanic activity of several volcanoes worldwide: deformation, thermal anomalies, SO2 gas emissions & more

Magma intrusion north of #Fentale volcano (Ethiopia) shows slowing deformation: latest 12-day Sentinel-1 interferogram suggests slowing subsidence below Fentale and slowing dyke opening towards Dofen compared to the previous interferogram mounts-project.com/timeseries/221…

This NASA visualization shows the CO2 emitted into the earth's atmosphere + clarifies who is responsible for the climate crisis: we, the Global North. There is not time to wait. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #renewables

EO-Tools version 2024.9.2 is out! It is now easy to apply the well-known Goldstein filter to reduce phase noise. eo-tools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/s1-g… #EO #Geospatial #InSAR #SAR #python

Oldies but goldies: Jos Stam, Stable fluids, 1999. One of the most influential papers in PDEs for graphics. Made computational fluid dynamics accessible to (almost) anyone. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jos_Stam dgp.toronto.edu/people/stam/re…

New analysis: approximately 65% of the total road network has been damaged across the Gaza Strip as of 29 May 2024. UNOSAT identified approximately 1,100km of destroyed roads, 350km of severely affected roads, and 1,470km of moderately affected roads. ➡️unosat.org/products/3883

When you open Google Maps and look at fields in specific regions of France or Italy, it's not uncommon to see patterns like this -- thin bright lines tracing little rectangles. These are the foundations of roman villae, buried below the crops. If you go on location, you'll see that the ground is full of fragments of bricks, cement, tiles -- and roman pottery. Some of them are known sites. Many remain entirely unlisted. The large majority were never dug up at all.

Seminario Institucional "Mecanismos de construcción y destrucción de domos de lava en el volcán #Popocatepetl " Dr. Sébastien Valade Departamento de Vulcanología youtube.com/live/xmksl5KLH…

Mount Ruang is an active #stratovolcano located in Indonesia. Activity at Ruang is typically accompanied by the formation of #lava domes and #pyroclastic flows, and recent #eruptions have led to the evacuation of residents and the triggering of #tsunami alerts.

En nuestro próximo Seminario Institucional, el Dr. Sébastien Valade hablará sobre los "Mecanismos de construcción y destrucción de domos de lava en el volcán #Popocatepetl " Te esperamos el próximo miércoles 24 de abril, a las 12:00 p. m. Registro: 🔗 lu.ma/si2024abr

“Compared to what Popocatépetl is capable of, you can think of this as a little hiccup.” The volcano in Mexico has been erupting for decades, with near constant gas emissions and bursts of ash from the crater. #Landsat 8 captured activity on Jan. 27. go.nasa.gov/3OoyBqH

Looks menacing but this is just a gentle puff of ash from Popocatépetl. The towering volcano has been erupting for decades, with near constant venting from the crater punctuated by the growth of viscous lava domes and bursts of ash and volcanic bombs. earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/152388/…

@ESA_EO Check out the volcano monitoring system MOUNTS mounts-project.com exploiting the diversity of sensors on-board Sentinel spacecrafts for a holistic monitoring of volcanic activity worldwide: Sentinel-1 (deformation), Sentinel-2 (heat anomalies) and Sentinel-5P (SO2 gas) 😀

Standing at approximately 3329 m high, Mount #Etna is an almost constant state of activity. But how do we monitor volcanoes from space? Satellites can be really helpful! Here's how: youtube.com/watch?v=0MW6CB…

@CharlesBalagizi @VirungaSupersit @AsjRdc @VolcanoActive @SmithsonianGVP @ScienceRDC @Earthquakes_Rwa @DlrSo2 @sentinel_hub Thanks @CharlesBalagizi! By merging the #S5P NRTI products (see attached image), one can better visualize the plume's SO2 concentration distribution. Although it's a tricky call, it's possible that this SO2 emission is coming from #Nyamulagira rather than #Nyiragongo

Low SO2 emission was detected yesterday Sept 25, 2023 at #Nyiragongo volcano (estimated mass =20.10 tons) as a consequence of lava effusion inside its main crater. Thanks MOUNTS volcano monitoring system @MountsSystem for supporting the tracking this volcano plume and deformation

Sentimos comunicar que ayer 15 de agosto de 2023 falleció el Dr. Emilio Custodio, un "Canario" nacido en Cataluña, referente nacional e internacional en el campo de la hidrogeología e hidrogeoquimica en territorios volcánicos, excelente científico y mejor persona. D.E.P.

Satellite imagery enhanced with deep learning sheds light on the mechanisms driving lava dome construction-destruction cycles at Popocatépetl volcano @MountsSystem @GeofisicaUNAM nature.com/articles/s4146…

New paper alert. Rise and fall of magma column at Popocatépetl volcano. Here we use a large radar dataset of the TerraSAR-X satellite to monitor changes of the volcano summit. Published in Nature Coms, congratulations to @MountsSystem for leading! rdcu.be/ddM3G

Proud to announce a new paper in @NatureComms rdcu.be/ddM3G "Lava dome cycles reveal rise and fall of magma column at #Popocatépetl volcano" It opens new perspectives for improved multi-sensor satellite monitoring of open-vent volcanic activity @GeofisicaUNAM @CNPC_MX

#Nyamulagira overflows: keep in mind that when #Sentinel2 cannot track the #volcanic activity due to cloudy conditions, #Sentinel1 SAR & INSAR imagery can. See #MOUNTS multi-sensor monitoring platform: mounts-project.com/timeseries/223… @CharlesBalagizi @CopernicusEU @SmithsonianGVP @esa
