Seismic measurements

A seismic station records continuously (in collaboration with R. Ortiz, CSIC Madrid - Spain) the seismic activity of Stromboli volcano. This page shows you, day by day, the activity as we record it. The graphs are generated automatically when we receive the data in Udine. We cannot therefore guarantee any continuity nor any deadline in the data publication. We do not guarantee its correctness nor we give any interpretation, e.g. in terms of hazard. For these aspects we direct you to the official guidelines of Civil Defense and of the INGV, that publishes almost every day a report on the current volcanic activity. The graphs are presented using GMT time, in PNG format. If your browser does not support this format, there are many freeware utilities you can install to see it.

The station is installed in San Bartolo village (thanks to Sergio Ballarò). Obviously the data are much more affected by noise, both generated by the sea and by human activities. For the latter, we present here only data recorded during night hours, and we recommend to treat these with greater care. We hope they are useful to you anyway to keep an eye on the ongoing seismic activity at Stromboli volcano.
