Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Funded by\u00a0NSF CDI Program<\/a>\u00a0(NSF-1125165, $1,833,608, 9\/2011-8\/2016)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This project will create a new paradigm, VolcanoSRI (Volcano Seismic Realtime Imaging), for imaging 4D (four-dimensional) tomography of an active volcano in real-time. VolcanoSRI is a large-scale sensor network of low-cost geophysical stations that analyzes seismic signals and computes real-time, full-scale, three-dimensional fluid dynamics of the volcano conduit system within the active network. The computed 4D tomography model will illuminate complex, time-varying dynamics of an erupting volcano, providing a deeper scientific understanding of volcanic processes, as well as a basis for rapid detection of volcanic hazards. VolcanoSRI will potentially make the fictional holographic projector known as Virgil in the film “Supervolcano”\u00a0 a reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
