Monitoring of magmatic–hydrothermal system by noble gas and carbon isotopic compositions of fumarolic gases

Joint press release (in Japanese) by the University of Tokyo, Hokkaido University, Tokyo Institute of Technology, and Tokai University

Abstract
We repeatedly measured isotopic compositions of noble gases and CO2 in volcanic gases sampled at six fumaroles around the Kusatsu-Shirane volcano (Japan) between 2014 and 2021 to detect variations reflecting recent volcanic activity. The synchronous increases…..
