SPECIAL ISSUE DEADLINE EXTENSION - May 31: Integrating Multi-Scale and Multidisciplinary Approaches in Seismic Microzonation of Volcanic Areas

2026-05-04

We are pleased to inform authors that the submission deadline has been extended to 31 May 2026

The assessment of local seismic hazard in active volcanic regions poses specific challenges, owing to the highly complex geological architecture and distinctive seismological behavior, which differ markedly from those in more stable tectonic settings. 

Seismicity in these regions is typically clustered and characterized by low to moderate magnitude events. This is particularly evident in Italy, where the shallow depth of earthquake hypocenters has significantly increased their impact on the territory, as shown by recent events on the island of Ischia (2017), the eastern flank of Mount Etna (2018), and in the Campi Flegrei area over the past two years.

OPEN CALL FOR PAPERS - Special Issue on Multi-Scale Geochemical Monitoring of Active Volcanism: Integrating Satellite, Remote, and In Situ Methodologies for Volcanic and Environmental Assessment

2026-03-23

The geochemical monitoring of active volcanic systems has entered a new era characterized by the integration of multi-scale observations, ranging from sub-meter ground-based sensors to global satellite constellations. This Special Issue focuses on the state-of-the-art methodologies used to track volcanic degassing and its far-reaching consequences. A primary focus of this volume is the synergy between intensive parameters (chemical species ratios and isotopic compositions) and extensive parameters (total mass fluxes). We highlight the critical role of worldwide ground based geochemical networks and advanced satellite platforms (such as TROPOMI and OMI) in the continuous measurement of SO₂, CO₂, and H₂S fluxes.

Deadline for Submission:  30 June 2026

Guest Editors for this Special Issue:

• Salvatore Inguaggiato, Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia, Sezione di Palermo, Italy
• Christoph Kern, U.S. Geological Survey, Cascades Volcano Observatory, Vancouver, USA
• Silvana Hidalgo, Instituto Politécnico de Quito, Ecuador
• Agnes Mazot, GNS Science, Earth Science, New Zealand
• Benedetto Schiavo, Instituto de Geofísica, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, México
