NEWS & HIGHLIGHTS

2020/5/18:

Our work about detecting precursory seismic velocity changes (dv/v) prior to the 2018 May 2 Kilauea Hawaii volcano was accepted by Earth, Planets and Space, in which a spatiotemporal dv/v evolution in relation to multi-stage magma intrusion processes between the summit reservoirs and East Rift Zone dike system is illuminated and discussed.
