Fiber optic sensors could revolutionize early detection of volcanic eruptions
SMRTR summary
Researchers have developed a new fiber optic sensing system to detect volcanic eruptions in Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula. The distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) technique can provide up to 30 minutes of advance warning before lava eruptions, using a 100-kilometer cable to detect millimeter-scale ground movements caused by magma flow.
