Institutions of Project team members Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia 8. Details of any other Project partners B. Status: 1. Did the Project receive funding? Yes, as a part of national projects for surveillance of volcanic activity. These data come from the continuous monitoring of geochemical and geophysical parameters that have been included, for many years, in the institutional activities of the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (I.N.G.V.), for the volcanic surveillance. 2. Agency or funding organization which funded the project (including funding numbers) Dipartimento di Protezione Civile, Italy C. Description: 1. Goal of the project Volcanic surveillance aiming to follow the pre-eruptive scenarios and to define, possibly to reduce, the volcanic risks 2. Size and scope of user community Geoscientists who want to interpret changes of active geodynamic systems. Particularly, volcanologists are interested in the long term variations of temperature, because heat and fluids released on the surface give geochemical information on the deeper magmatic sources.
