Hydrothermal system of the active crater of Aso volcano (Japan) inferred from a three-dimensional resistivity structure model

Abstract: During the past two decades, studies of the Aso volcano in Japan have improved our understanding of the shallow hydrothermal system that exists beneath the active crater of this volcano. Detailed knowledge of the subsurface structure of this volcanic edifice is essential for developing a better understanding of the behavior of the volcanic fluids and of the triggering mechanism of volcanic eruptions. Here, we report a three-dimensional (3-D) electrical resistivity model for the active crater of the Nakadake ce… Show more

“…In this paper, the distribution of the clay cap around the Yugama crater was imaged in detail, and it was found to be nearly bell shaped. These capping structures, the hydrothermal alteration products, are commonly found in geothermal areas (e.g., Heise et al 2008;Yamaya et al 2013;Seki et al 2015;Piña-Varas et al 2018;Yoshimura et al 2018;Kanda et al 2019). The bottom of the C1 smectite clay conductor is interpreted as the isotherm of 200 °C.…”

“…From previous measurements (Frantz and Marshall 1984), it is known that the conductivity of aqueous HCl can be significantly larger than that of NaCl solutions. Indeed, Kanda et al (2019) attributed the elevated conductivity below Aso volcano in Japan to the presence of a highly acidic fluid.…”
