“…These two clouds spread in opposite directions (Figures 9f and 9g), reaching heights of well over 500 m above the craters (Figures 9g and 9h); that is, they extended beyond the FOV of our camera, which covered a zone 500 m above the craters. A maximum height of 3000–3500 m asl was estimated from satellite images [ Spinetti et al , 2007, Rapporto eruzione Stromboli 9–16 marzo 2007; http://www.ct.ingv.it/Report/BollettinoCNT_160307_Stromboli%20(2).pdf], which translates to ∼2250–2750 m above the craters. The SQT400 camera also showed four other similarities to the 5 April 2003 paroxysm as described by Calvari et al [2006], Rosi et al [2006], and Harris et al [2008].…”

[1] Using thermal infrared images recorded by a permanent thermal camera network maintained on Stromboli volcano (Italy), together with satellite and helicopter-based thermal image surveys, we have compiled a chronology of the events and processes occurring before and during Stromboli's 2007 effusive eruption. These digital data also allow us to calculate the effusion rates and lava volumes erupted during the effusive episode. At the onset of the 2007 eruption, two parallel eruptive fissures developed within the northeast crater, eventually breaching the NE flank of the summit cone and extending along the eastern margin of the Sciara del Fuoco. These fed a main effusive vent at 400 m above sea level to feed lava flows that extended to the sea. The effusive eruption was punctuated, . In this paper, we discuss similarities and differences between these two effusive events and interpret the processes occurring in 2007 in terms of the recent dynamics witnessed at Stromboli.Citation: Calvari, S

The volcanic ash detection procedures are based on Brightness Temperature Difference (BTD) algorithm using the thermal infrared channels centred around 11 and 12 microns of a multispectral satellite sensor. The Mie code has been is included in the retrieval procedure to compute the ash optical properties from the ash microphysical characteristics. The simulations has been carried out using MODTRAN radiative transfer model. The Nasa-Modis and the Noaa-Avhrr measurements of Mt. Etna eruptive plume occurred in November 2006 have been analyzed to retrieve the plume optical thickness, the particle effective radius and the size distribution.
