Abstract:
Volcanoes are the most rapidly changing and difficult to study geological features. Identifying physical signatures of processes occurring during seismic and volcanic activity is one of the most important problem in seismology. Here we reveal temporal changes of seismic velocity in the upper crust for two years of eruption activity of the Redoubt volcano. Based on correlation of continuous records of seismic noise at pairs of stations, we obtained correlograms for selected time periods. Using the stretching method, we obtained relative velocity changes between stations. These variations appear to be consistent with the results of repeated tomography that was previously derived based on body waves from local earthquakes.

Abstract:
The Instituto Nicaragüense de Estudios Territoriales (INETER) is the institution responsible for volcano monitoring in Nicaragua. The Volcanology Division of the General Directorate of Geology and Geophysics currently monitors six active volcanoes by means of seismology, gas measurements, optical webcams, and visual and satellite observations. The volcano monitoring network that INETER maintains is in continuous expansion and modernization. Similarly, the number of technical and scientific personnel has been growing in the last few years. 2015 was the busiest year of the last two decades: Momotombo volcano erupted for the first time in 110 years, a lava lake was emplaced at the bottom of Masaya volcano’s Santiago crater, and Telica volcano experienced a phreatic phase from May to November. Although we have increased our monitoring capabilities, we still have many challenges for the near future that we expect to resolve with support from the national and international geoscientific community. El Instituto Nicaragüense de Estudios Territoriales (INETER) es la institución responsable de la vigilancia volcánica en Nicaragua. Su División de Vulcanología actualmente vigila seis volcanes activos por medio de sismicidad, emisiones de gases, cámaras ópticas, observaciones visuales y teledetección satelital. La red de monitoreo de volcanes que mantiene INETER está en continua expansión y modernización. Del mismo modo, el número de personal técnico y científico ha estado creciendo en los últimos años. El año 2015 fue el año más ocupado que tuvimos en las últimas dos décadas, debido a que el volcán Momotombo entró en erupción por primera vez en los últimos 110 años, se emplazó un lago de lava en el fondo del cráter Santiago (volcán Masaya), y el volcán Telica experimentó una fase freática de mayo a noviembre. A pesar del progreso realizado, todavía tenemos muchos desafíos para el futuro cercano que esperamos lograr con los recursos nacionales y de la comunidad geocientífica internacional.

Abstract:
Independent Component Analysis (ICA) is an emerging new technique in the blind identification of signals recorded in a variety of different fields. ICA tries to find the most statistically independent sources from an observable random vector, with the only restriction that all sources but at most one are non-Gaussian; no other a priori information on sources and mixing dynamic system are needed. The applications of these techniques to the analysis of volcanic time series are relatively few to date. In this paper we show that ICA is a suitable technique to separate a volcanic source component from ocean microseisms background noise in a seismic dataset recorded at the Mt. Merapi volcano, Indonesia. The encouraging results obtained with this methodology in the presented case study support their wider applicability in volcano seismology.

This report provides a brief description of the field work on the Kuril Islands. It was performed within the framework of the R&D theme, projects of the RSF and the RFFR, which are realized in the laboratory of postmagmatic processes of the Institute of Volcanology and Seismology FEB RAS. Hydrological and hydrochemical works were performed on the rivers draining the slopes and thermal fields of the Sinarka, Kuntomintar volcanic massifs (Shiashkotan Island), and the Vernadsky and Karpinsky Ridges (Paramushir Island). The study of the chemical erosion of volcanic islands and the assessment of the hydrothermal export of magmatic volatiles are the goals of this work. Infrared photography was taken and the total flux of volcanic SO2 and diffusion flux of CO2 were measured on thermal fields in the caldera of Golovnin volcano. A detailed hydrogeochemical survey was made on the thermal fields of the Ebeko volcano to study the relationship of volcanic and hydrothermal activity of the volcano. For further analytical work, a large number of water and gas samples were taken and a representative collection of rocks and sediments was collected during the expedition.

This report gives a brief description of field work on the Kuril Islands in summer 2021 carried out by staff of the Institute of Volcanology and Seismology of FEB RAS within the framework of the Institute research theme and projects of the Russian Science Foundation (RSF) and Russian Fund for Basic Research (RFBR). To study chemical erosion of volcanic islands and to estimate hydrothermal export of magmatic volatiles, hydrological and hydrochemical works were carried out on the rivers draining the slopes and thermal fields of the Baransky volcano and the Bogdan Khmelnitsky volcanic massif (Iturup Island). Detailed hydrochemical studies with water sampling at different depths and a bathymetric survey of Lake Kipyashchey located in the caldera of Golovnin volcano (Kunashir Island) were performed. We also proceeded with studying the CO2 diffusion flux through thermal fields and volcanic lakes. In the course of ongoing regime observations on Ebeko volcano (Paramushir Island), aerial and infrared imaging of its near-crater part was carried out. For the first time since the eruption began in 2016, a quadcopter survey of the lake located in the Srednii (middle) crater of the volcano was conducted. For further analytical studies a large number of water and gas samples were taken, and the collection of sediments was replenished.

Abstract:
Abstract Mount St. Helens in Washington State erupted violently (Volcano Explosivity Index = 5) on 18 May 1980. During the previous two months, intense seismic activity at the volcano was recorded by a combination of continuous analog-tape recordings, paper drum recordings, and a recently installed triggered digital event computer system. Because of the technological constraints of the time, the digital data available cover only a little more than 1% of the two-month period. The paper drum records only exist for a few of the seismic stations and are also quite incomplete. However, the analog-tape data from some stations is near complete for almost the whole two months. During the period 2005–2014, these old analog tapes were recovered from storage and digitized to generate standard digital data for archiving at the Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology Data Management Center. This recovery process was long and complicated but, for the most part, was fairly successful. Although the quality of these recovered data is nowhere near as good as modern digital seismograms, this dataset does provide a near-continuous record of the significant seismic sequence that led up to the major volcanic eruption. It includes the large variety of seismic signals from different types of volcanic earthquakes and harmonic tremor and should be a valuable resource for those studying volcanic seismicity.

Abstract:
Electrical activity at volcanoes has been recently recognized as a potential new remote sensing technique for plume-forming eruptions. Volcanic electrical activity takes place in the conduit and plume and therefore has the benefit of being a direct indicator of surface activity. This is unlike seismic signals, which indicate magma/gas movement underground, and infrasound signals, which indicate a surface explosion but not necessarily the formation of an ash plume. There are two distinct types of volcanic electrical discharges: volcanic lightning and continual radio frequency (CRF) impulses. This dissertation explores the relationships between these two electrical signals and other commonly monitored volcanic parameters. For volcanic electrical activity to be widely adopted into monitoring platforms it is important to understand how electrical discharges at volcanoes are related to other monitored signals. I present a case study of the electrical activity at Sakurajima Volcano, Japan. The lightning mapping array (LMA) is used to record both lightning and CRF. I relate CRF to ash properties and show that CRF corresponds to eruptions containing more juvenile magma that has undergone milling as it is transported out of the conduit. Seismic, infrasound, and video data are used in conjunction with multivariable statistical methods on a suite of electrical parameters to show that high levels of volcanic electrical activity are related to eruptions with large infrasound signals (> 107 J), high initial velocities (> 55 m/s), and relatively tall plume heights (> 1 km). Finally, an examination of globally detected lightning at Bogoslof Volcano, AK shows the potential for volcanic lightning in plume tracking (0-100 km), even after the end of the explosive phase of the eruption.

Abstract:
Dans l'histoire des éruptions volcaniques, le Papandayan à l'Ouest de Java est considéré comme l'un des plus meurtriers après avoir causé la mort de 2957 personnes et des dégâts sérieux en 1772. L'éruption la plus récente de ce volcan a eu lieu en 2002 et était de type phréatique. Cette éruption a été précédée d'une augmentation soudaine de l'activité sismique moins de deux jours avant l'éruption. Aucune victime n'a été déplorée. La nature de cette éruption est indéfinie. Cette thèse regroupe plusieurs études utilisant différentes techniques en vue d'améliorer la prédictibilité des éruptions du volcan Papandayan, principalement via l'interprétation des signatures sismiques.

Le monitoring sismique passif a débuté en décembre 2009 par l'installation d'une station sismique permanente à large bande dans le cratère du Papandayan. L'année suivante, une station météorologique a été installée pour compléter les mesures. La troisième année, 8 stations sismiques temporaires ont été déployées autour du volcan en réponse à une augmentation de l'activité sismique en 2011.

Nous avons conduit différentes études; (1) Nous avons examiné l'évolution de l'activité volcanique par réalisation d'une revue complète de l'histoire éruptive du volcan, autant pour la période préhistorique qu'historique. (2) Nous avons réalisé une analyse temps-fréquence des événements sismiques, étudié leurs caractéristiques et proposé une nouvelle classification avec une description des processus physiques supposés les générer. (3) Nous avons étudié les signatures sismiques précurseur de l'éruption de 2002 et pendant la crise volcanique de 2011 en implémentant différentes méthodologies, dont: la détection automatique d'événements sismiques à l'aide de filtres récursifs STA/LTA, l'analyse spectrale des formes d'onde, la mesure continue de l'amplitude spectrale du signal (SSAM), la polarisation des ondes et l'analyse de la distribution fréquence/magnitude (b-value). Nous avons alors réalisé un modèle chronologique des séquences sismiques du Papandayan. (4) Pour améliorer la compréhension de la dynamique des fluides sous le volcan Papandayan, nous avons réalisé une analyse des fréquences complexes des événements longue période (LP) et leurs variations temporelles peuvent être utilisées pour estimer (a) la composition des fluides présents dans les fractures sous le volcan et/ou (b) l'évolution des dimensions de ces fractures. Ces variations des fréquences complexes des événements LP peuvent être interprétées comme les réponses dynamiques du système hydrothermal à des changements d'impulsions de chaleur transférées par les flux de gaz volcaniques du magma sous le volcan. (5) nous avons calculé l'évolution temporelle du rapport spectral horizontal-sur-vertical (HVSR) en utilisant le bruit sismique ambiant enregistré par une station unique pour estimer les variations de vitesse de propagation des ondes de cisaillement en lien avec l'activité dynamique du volcan. Nous avons trouvé une corrélation claire entre les variations de fréquence de résonnance HVSR et l'augmentation de la sismicité.

Enfin, nous proposons des hypothèses sur les processus physiques qui se produisent sous le Papandayan. Cette étude est une première tentative d'utilisation de cette méthode pour surveiller l'activité volcanique en continu.

Abstract:
Concepción is the most active composite volcano in Nicaragua, and is located on Ometepe Island, within Lake Nicaragua. Moderate to small volcanic explosions with a volcanic explosivity index (VEI) of 1-2 have been characteristic of this volcano during the last four decades. Although its current activity is not violent, its volcanic deposits reveal stages of violent activity involving Plinian and sub-Plinian eruptions that deposited vast amounts of volcanic tephra in the Atlantic Ocean. These observations, together with the 31,000 people living on the island, make Concepción volcano an important target for volcanological research. My research focuses on the investigation of the stability of the volcano edifice of Concepción, using geophysical data such as gravity, geodetic global positioning system (GPS), sulphur dioxide (SO2) flux, real-time seismic amplitude (RSAM), and satellite remotely-sensed data. The integration of these data sets provides information about the short-term behavior of Concepción, and some insights into the volcano's long-term behavior. This study has provided, for the first time, information about the shallow dynamics of Concepción on time scales of days to weeks. I furnish evidence that this volcano is not gravitationally spreading in a continuous fashion as previously thought, that its bulk average density is comparable to that of a pile of gravel, that the volcano edifice is composed of two major distinctive lithologies, that the deformation field around the volcano is recoverable in a matter of days, and that the deformation source is located in the shallow crust. This source is also degassing through the relatively open magmatic conduit. There are, however, several remaining questions. Although the volcano is not spreading continuously there is the possibility that gravitational spreading may be taking place in a stick-slip fashion. This has important implications for slope stability of the volcano, and the associated hazards. The factors influencing the long term slope stability of the volcano are still not fully resolved, but internal volcanic processes and anthropogenic disturbances appear to be the major factors.

Abstract:
Using joint P-wave seismic tomography, receiver functions, and ambient noise we image the magmatic structure beneath Newberry Volcano, located near Bend, Oregon. Use of active source and teleseismic events in a joint tomographic inversion provides the ray crossings necessary to resolve a low velocity body around 4 km depth. Receiver functions show large lateral heterogeneity and are consistent with the location of a low velocity body derived from the tomography but require a larger low velocity anomaly. Ambient noise autocorrelations are used to image a low velocity reflector, located at ~3 km depth, shallower than the imaged low velocity body recovered using tomography and receiver functions. Ultimately, our results reveal a magma chamber at 3-4 km depth beneath Newberry caldera, with an overlying partially molten sill at ~3 km depth. These results show the usefulness of dense seismometer deployments over volcanoes.

Abstract:
A multi-prong approach was taken in this dissertation to understand volcanic processes from both a long-term and more immediate hazard perspective. In the long-term, magma sources within the crust may produce measurable surficial response and long-wavelength gravity anomalies that provide information about the extent and depth of this magma. Long-term volcanic hazard forecasting is also improved by developing as complete a record as possible of past events. In the short-term, a long-standing question has been on the casting of precursory volcanic activity in terms of future volcanic hazards. Three studies are presented in this dissertation to address these issues. Inversion of high-resolution ground magnetic data in Amargosa Valley, NV indicates that anomaly B could be generated by a buried shield volcano. This new information changes the event count in this region which in turn affects the overall volcanic hazard estimation. Through the use of Finite Element Models (FEM) an in-depth characterization of the surficial response to magma underplating is provided for the Tohoku Volcanic Arc, Japan. These models indicate that surficial uplift was dominantly driven by mid-crustal intrusions and the magnitude and wavelength of this uplift was mainly controlled by the elastic layer thickness. In Dominica, seismic data were used as weights in spatial intensity maps to generate dynamic volcanic hazard maps influenced by changes in seismicity. These maps show an increasing trend in the north that may be indicative of an increase in earthquake and volcanic hazards.

Abstract:
L'éruption de 2010 du Merapi est la première grande éruption explosive du volcan qui a été observée instrumentalement. Dans ce travail, nous étudions les précurseurs de l'éruption et le comportement du volcan avant l'éruption en reliant les caractéristiques sismiques avec d'autres observations disponibles. Nous présentons les principaux aspects de l'activité sismique au cours de la crise de 2010, tels que la chronologie de la sismicité, l'évolution spatio-temporelle des positions de source de séisme et les changements de vitesse sismique. En effectuant des localisations absolues et relatives, nous obtenons des preuves de l'existence de zones asismiques, concordant avec des études antérieures, que nous interprétons comme des zones plus ductiles. La migration du magma de la partie profonde à la partie superficielle du conduit à travers la zone asismique supérieure est mise en évidence par un déplacement vers le haut des hypocentres. Nous analysons l'énergie sismique quantifiée par le RSAM calculé pour plusieurs bandes de fréquences. Ces fonctions affichent des accélérations claires dans les dernières semaines avant l'éruption. Ce comportement est utilisé pour effectuer des prévisions d'éruption volcanique rétrospective avec la méthode « Material Failure Forecast » ou FFM. Le début de la première éruption est estimé avec une bonne précision. Nous proposons une méthode originale de détection d'événement basée sur un rapport d'énergie. En utilisant cette méthode et la corrélation de la forme d'onde, nous identifions 10 familles de séismes similaires. Ces multiplets sismiques sont situés en dessous ou au -dessus de la zone asismique supérieure et sont composés soit d'événements volcano-tectoniques soit d'événements basse fréquence. Certains de ces groupes ont été actifs pendant plusieurs mois avant la crise éruptive alors qu'une famille qui comprend 119 événements répétitifs est apparue 20 heures avant le début de l'éruption. Nous estimons des variations de vitesse sismique, liées principalement à l'activité magmatique, en utilisant la coda des multiplets et les fonctions d'intercorrélation du bruit sismique. Ces variations montrent une forte variabilité spatiale et temporelle de leur amplitude et de leur signe. Bien qu'elles ne puissent pas être décrites par une simple tendance unique, ces variations de vitesse peuvent être considérées comme un précurseur de l'éruption. En utilisant les résultats précédents ainsi que d'autres observations, nous déterminons les particularités associées à la grande éruption explosive de 2010. En outre, nous proposons un scénario chronologique de l'activité pré- éruptive du Merapi
The 2010 eruption of Merapi is the first large explosive eruption of the volcano that has been instrumentally observed. In this work, we study the eruption precursors and the pre-eruptive volcano behaviour by linking seismic features with other available observations. The main characteristics of the seismic activity during the 2010 crisis, including the chronology of seismicity, the spatio-temporal evolution of earthquake source positions and the seismic velocity changes, are presented. By performing absolute and relative locations, we obtain evidences of aseismic zones which are consistent with earlier studies and are interpreted as more ductile zones. Magma migration from the deep to the shallow part of the conduit through the upper aseismic zone is revealed by an upward shift of the hypocenters. We analyse the seismic energy quantified by RSAM calculated for several frequency bands. These functions display clear accelerations in the last few weeks before the eruption. This behaviour is used to perform hindsight eruption forecasting with the Material Failure Forecast method (FFM). The onset of the first eruption is estimated with a good precision. We propose an original method of event detection based on energy ratio. Using this method and waveform correlation, we identify 10 families of similar earthquakes. The seismic multiplets are located either below or above the upper aseismic zone and are composed of either volcano-tectonic or low-frequency events. Some of the clusters were active during several months before the eruptive crisis while a family that includes 119 repeating events appeared 20 hours before the eruption onset. Seismic velocity variations associated mainly with magmatic activity are estimated using the coda of both multiplets and noise cross correlation functions. These variations display strong temporal and spatial variability of their amplitude and sign. Although they cannot be described by a unique simple trend, these velocity variations can be considered as an eruption precursor. Using the preceding results together with other observations, we determine the specific features associated with the large explosive eruption of 2010. Furthermore, we propose a chronological scenario of the pre-eruptive activity of Merapi 2010 unrest

Full text
Abstract:
An abnormally high number of explosion quakes were noted during the monitoring effort for the 2007 eruption of Pavlof Volcano on the Alaskan Peninsula. In this study we manually counted the explosion quakes from their characteristic ground-coupled air waves. This study makes an effort at better quantifying the number of explosion quakes and how the characteristic ground-coupled air waves are affected by wind direction and wind speed. Additionally this study investigates how the ground coupled air waves might be used in a monitoring or analysis effort by calculating energy release and gas mass release. Over 3.2x104 quakes were recorded. It was found that wind direction affects the travel time of the air wave by up to 0.7 seconds depending on station location and wind direction. Wind direction and speed, however, are demonstrated not to cause an appreciable difference in ground-coupled air wave frequencies or amplitude ratios. The energy release from the explosions is calculated to be 3.04x1011 J. and the total gas mass (assuming 100% water) released was 729 metric tons. These values are compared to other volcanoes in the literature and found to be somewhat lower. Nevertheless, the tracking of explosion quakes has the potential to become a valuable member of the seismic monitoring arsenal.

Abstract:
UNRAVELLING VOLCANIC TREMOR SOURCE AT MOUNT ETNA FROM QUANTITATIVE MULTIPARAMETRIC ANALYSIS AND MOMENT TENSOR INVERSION Developments of multiparametric monitoring networks, real time analysis techniques and the acquisition of high-resolution data, have allowed to improve the knowledge of the structures and dynamics that characterize the active volcanoes. To understand the dynamics of an active volcano, it is possible to proceed with two different types of studies: i) multiparametric studies based on the joint analysis of different data (such as geophysical, geochemical, petrological data); ii) detailed studies concerning specific data. In order to understand source volcanic tremor at Mt. Etna volcano, volcanic tremor recorded during the vigorous summit of 2011-2012 was analyzed. In particular, this thesis shows the results obtained from the investigation of the volcanic tremor source through a duplex study: i) a multiparametric study based on the quantitative comparison between different time series such as volcanic tremor amplitudes and geochemical data such as soil CO2 flux and the SO2 flux at summit craters; ii) a moment tensor inversion analysis of volcanic tremor recorded during a lava fountain episode of the considered period. For these studies, data acquired from the multiparametric monitoring network managed by Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia were used.The quantitative comparison between seismic and geochemical data was performed in order to identify and quantitatively estimate similar trends variations between the compared time series, both synchronous and characterized by time lags. To this end, four different analysis techniques have been implemented, such as Cross-Correlation, Randomized Cross-Correlation, wavelet analysis and linear regression. The obtained results allowed to infer pressurization and depressurization dynamics of the plumbing system during the different eruptive phases observed during the considered period. The moment tensor inversion analysis of the volcanic tremor recorded at Mt. Etna represents a novelty. Specifically, this analysis was applied to volcanic tremor recorded during the lava fountain episode that occurred on 5 August 2011, one of the most vigorous of the 25 episodes that characterized the 2011-2012 period. The results allowed to highlight a source mechanism generated by a sub-horizontal crack near the summit crater area, which can be interpreted as a valve through which gas-rich magma is ejected during the lava fountain activities.

Full text
Abstract:
Telica Volcano, Nicaragua, is a persistently restless volcano with high rates of seismicity that can vary from less than ten events to over a thousand events per day. Low-frequency (LF) events dominate the seismic catalogue and seismicity rates at Telica show little clear correlation with periods of eruption. As such, traditional methods of forecasting of volcanic activity based on increases in seismicity and recognition of LF activity are not applicable. A single seismic station has been operating at Telica since 1993, and in 2010 we installed a broadband seismic and continuous GPS network (TESAND network) at Telica. In this study we investigate the seismic characteristics surrounding a nine-month period of phreatic to phreatomagmatic explosions in 1999, and also from the initial three-and-a-half year deployment of the TESAND network, including a three-month phreatic vulcanian eruptive period in 2011. We demonstrate that pertinent information can be obtained from analysis of single-station data, and while large seismic networks are preferable when possible, we note that for many volcanoes this is not possible. We find unusual patterns of seismicity before both eruptive periods; rather than a precursory increase in seismicity as is observed prior to many volcanic eruptions, we observe a decrease in seismicity many months prior to eruption. We developed a new program for cross-correlation of large seismic data catalogues and analysed multiplet activity surrounding both eruptive periods. We observed that the formation of new multiplets corresponds to periods of high event rates (during inter-eruptive periods) and high percentages of daily events that belong to a multiplet. We propose a model for the seismicity patterns observed at Telica, where changes in seismicity are related to a cyclic transition between open-system degassing and closed-system degassing. Periods of open-system degassing occur during non-eruptive episodes and are characterised by high event rates, a broad range of frequency content of events and high degrees of waveform correlation. A transition to closed-system degassing could be due to sealing of fluid pathways in the magmatic and/or hydrothermal system, or due to magma withdrawal. Periods of closed-system degassing are characterised by low event rates, higher frequency contents and low degrees of waveform correlation. Eruptive periods may then represent a transition from closed-system degassing to open-system degassing, however the system must also be capable of transitioning to open-system degassing without eruption. These observations have important implications for volcano monitoring and eruption forecasting at persistently restless volcanoes. Rather than a precursory increase in seismicity as is often observed prior to eruption at other volcanoes, our observations indicate that phreatic eruptions at Telica occur after a decrease in seismicity, a corresponding change in the frequency content of events, and a decrease in waveform correlation. These changes may represent a period of closed-system degassing that could culminate in phreatic eruptions. The inclusion of real-time analysis of variations in frequency content and multiplet activity provides critical information for volcano monitoring institutions.

Abstract:
La multiplication du nombre de réseaux sismiques fait exploser le nombre de données sismologiques. Manuellement, leur traitement est long et fastidieux, d'où la nécessité d'automatiser la détection, la classification et la localisation des événements pour aider les observatoires qui surveillent continuellement la sismicité, mais aussi, dans un intérêt plus scientifique, rechercher et caractériser les phénomènes. La thèse se décompose en 2 axes majeurs : (1) la détection / localisation des séismes, avec le logiciel Waveloc. On a amélioré les outils pré-existants, ajouté de nouvelles fonctionnalités pour une analyse plus détaillée de la sismicité et validé le code avec les données du Piton de la Fournaise ; (2) la classification des séismes. Après calcul des attributs décrivant au mieux les signaux, on a démontré l'efficacité de 2 méthodes d'apprentissage supervisé (régression logistique et SVM) pour le Piton de la Fournaise et soulevé les difficultés pour un cas plus complexe (le Kawah Ijen)
For some time now the quantity of available seismological data has kept increasing. Manually, their processing is long and tedious. Then, the automation of the detection, location and classification of seismic events has become necessary and aims to help the local observatories and to search and characterize some rarer or not well-known phenomena. The work is divided into 2 main directions : (1) the detection and location of seismic events with the Waveloc software (we improved the pre-existing tools, added some new functions for a more detailed analysis of the seimicity and applied the code to data from the Piton de la Fournaise volcano) ; (2) their classification (after computing the seismic attributes, we proved the efficiency and reliability of 2 supervised learning methods - logistic regression and SVM - for the Piton de la Fournaise volcano, underlined the difficulties for a more complex case - the Kawah Ijen volcano - and tried to apply new strategies)
