| Session Description | Monitoring active volcanoes with ground-based instruments is important but contains high risks especially during their erupting periods. Moreover, the topography of volcanic terrain often hampers the ground-based observation. To reduce the risk from ground-based observations and to take advantages of high temporal resolution of ground-based observations and high spatial resolution of remote sensing, a combination of satellite and ground-based observations at active volcanoes is important. With this background, the combination of these two approaches has been increasingly popular over the last decade and has become a fundamental approach to monitor active volcanoes. In this session, we propose to gather contributions that would allow discussions about the role of both satellite and ground-based techniques for broad applications related to fundamental knowledge and applied science to volcanic processes, hazard, and risks. |
