  • More about The Solfatara Magmatic-Hydrothermal System: Geochemistry, Geothermometry and Geobarometry of Fumarolic Fluids


This book presents innovative gas geoindicators and geobarometers to estimate temperatures and pressures in the Solfatara volcano, which is experiencing ongoing unrest. The gas geoindicators consider the sluggish behavior of methane and the effects of reaction kinetics, making it a valuable resource for scientists studying gas geochemistry, geothermometry, and geobarometry.

Format: Hardback

Publisher: Springer Nature Switzerland AG


This book presents groundbreaking gas-geothermometers and geobarometers, which are urgently required to estimate the increasingly higher temperatures and pressures present at depth below the Solfatara volcano, owing to its ongoing unrest. Consequently, in this book, new gas geoindicators, applicable up to ca. 1000°C and 3 kbar, have been implemented and applied to Solfatara fluids. The innovations of this book include: methane, having a sluggish behavior, was treated separately from fast-reacting carbon monoxide; deviations from the ideal gas behavior were considered; the effects of reaction kinetics were taken into account. This was possible because a dataset including many geochemical parameters and extending from 1983 to 2020 with a good sampling frequency is available for Solfatara, making it a case history probably unique worldwide. Nevertheless, the gas geoindicators described in this book can be applied to other similar systems. Thus, this book is of interest to many scientists studying gas geochemistry, geothermometry, and geobarometry for volcanic surveillance and the mitigation of the volcanic risk.
