Volcano electrical tomography unveils edifice collapse hazard linked to hydrothermal system structure and dynamics

Abstract: Catastrophic collapses of the flanks of stratovolcanoes constitute a major hazard threatening numerous lives in many countries. Although many such collapses occurred following the ascent of magma to the surface, many are not associated with magmatic reawakening but are triggered by a combination of forcing agents such as pore-fluid pressurization and/or mechanical weakening of the volcanic edifice often located above a low-strength detachment plane. The volume of altered rock available for collapse, the dynami… Show more

“…The upper, well-resolved part of this anomaly coincides with the electrically conductive region found by Rosas-Carbajal et al [2016] with the inversion of electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) data. Slices of the resulting electrical conductivity model at the same depths as in Figures 3b and 3d) are presented in Figure 4.…”

“…These values are low compared to the typical density of 2.7 g cm −3 found for andesitic rocks at La Soufrière [Komorowski et al, 2008]. Rosas-Carbajal et al, 2016], we reestimated the total ejected volume of this eruption to be 5-6 ×10 6 m 3 . Indeed, using a new analysis of data from the last (1976) phreatic eruption [cf.…”
