摘要

We measured volcanic gas emissions from the northeast crater (NEC) and central crater (CC) of Mount Etna on 21st July 2008, and 3rd and 31st August 2009, using a novel, lightweight open-path Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (OP-FTIR) in active mode with a portable infrared lamp. Contemporaneously we measured the SO_2 flux of the total gas emission released by the combined summit craters 14 km downwind and the SO_2 flux emitted by the NEC measured at the summit. Combining these data we determined the flux of the major volcanic components H_2O, CO_2, SO_2, HCl and HF emitted individually from CC and NEC craters. The results reveal similar SO_2/HCl ratios but distinct CO_2/SO_2 ratios (1.3 and 10.9 for NEC and CC, respectively) and an order of magnitude greater CO_2 flux from the CC compared with the NEC. A simple model in which the NEC branches from a central feeding conduit at a depth of ~2 km can reproduce these observations. We highlight that in such a system short-term variations in CO_2/SO_2 ratios at each crater can occur due to minor variations in the magma/gas flux entering each conduit at the branch, without an overall change in magma supply. CO_2/ SO_2 variations measured at individual craters may therefore be unrepresentative of the volcanic system and require cautious interpretation. Monitoring of the total CO_2 and SO_2 fluxes emitted from each crater is, on the contrary, an optimal monitoring strategy and can be achieved using a combination of CO_2/SO_2 instruments and SO_2 imaging cameras.
