| dc.description | In this work data observed by the geostationary MSG-SEVIRI and the polar NASA-Terra/Aqua-MODIS orbiting satellite instruments, have been used for the proximal and distal monitoring of the 24-30 December 2018 Etna eruption. The combined use of the SEVIRI high repetition time and the MODIS high spatial resolution allows a reliable near real time volcanic characterization from the source to the atmosphere. For the proximal monitoring the parameters estimated are the eruption starts and duration and the volcanic plume top height, while the distal monitoring was inverted relying on the determination of the volcanic cloud altitude and the ash/SO 2 retrievals. Achieved products were validated by comparing these results with those observed remotely by ground based networks.Results obtained in this study show the ability of satellite-based systems to entirely follow eruptive events in near real time, offering a powerful tool to mitigate volcanic risk on both local population and airspace. | |
