Outline of Final Research Achievements

Volcanic gas observations were conducted to quantify the variation of volcanic gas flux prior to Vulcanian explosions. We analyzed the volcanic gas and geodetic data, and found a positive relationship between the decrease in the volcanic gas flux and increases in strain records. These results suggest that the inflations before the explosion were caused by a gas accumulation. We proposed the model of the Vulcanian explosions by sealing of the conduit and the gas accumulation.
