| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study proposes a new model for failed eruptions which decrease a reliability of prediction of volcanic eruptions. The authors carried out MT survey around typical volcanoes which have frequent failed eruptions. Beneath active craters, vapor-dominant hydrothermal fluids, supplied from a deeper part, are maintained in a relatively low resistivity region that is covered by a clay-rich cap, extremely low resistivity layer. Exsolved gases result in fumarolic areas, and mixing of gases with shallow groundwater forms hot springs around volcanoes. The authors developed a new method to estimate mass flux of volcanic gases from electrical conductivity distribution, and applied Unzen volcanic area. The estimated value is consistent with geochemical and geodetic observations. This suggests that volcanic gases are steadily released from magma into the overlying groundwater flow system, and that effective degassing may be one of the factors controlling failed eruptions.
