Volcanic unrest : : from science to society / / edited by Joachim Gottsmann, Jürgen Neuberg, Bettina Scheu.

This open access book summarizes the findings of the VUELCO project, a multi-disciplinary and cross-boundary research funded by the European Commission's 7th framework program. It comprises four broad topics: 1. The global significance of volcanic unrest 2. Geophysical and geochemical fingerpri...
