Volcanic Hazard – what can be done?
1. Hazard assessment
• Mapping of the volcano and of its products: typical eruption types
• Dating the eruptions: What is the eruption frequency? What are the
periods of dormance?

Volcanic Hazard – what can be done?
1. Hazard assessment
• Mapping of the volcano and of its products: typical eruption types
• Dating the eruptions: What is the eruption frequency? What are the
periods of dormance?
• Weather conditions and wind directions, depending on seasons and
atmospheric level
• Volcanoes near or at the coast: Tsunami hazards

2. Monitoring
Initiation of Activity („Volcano awakes“)Monitoring the seismisity (tectonic quakes vs. harmonictremors)Geodesy: change in topography, inflation of volcanic edificeMeasuring the gas composition and flux
Establishing a multi-step alert- and evacuation plan: highest alert level: Eruption within 338 hours (successful at Pinatubo 1991
Monitoring during the ongoing eruptionForecasting the end of eruption > step-wise lowering of alert levels

Canary Islands: More than 14 large land slides in < 1 Ma (Masson et al. 2002)
Causes:- Volcanic eruption/
magma ascent- Earthquakes- Instability of volcanic edifice
- due to magma intrusion- due to hydrothermal
alteration
