Variation in SO2 emissions from Halemaumau crater, Kilauea volcano, Hawaii is analyzed using a set of techniques known as exploratory data analysis. SO2 flux was monitored using a correlation spectrometer. A total of 302 measurements were made on 73 days over a 90‐day period. The mean flux was 171 t/d with a standard deviation of 52 t/d. A significant increase in flux occurs during increased seismic activity beneath the caldera. SO2 flux prior to the this change varies in a systematic way and may be related to variation in the tidal modulation envelope.

Effect Of Wet Tropospheric Path Delays On Estimation Of Geodetic Baselines In The Gulf Of California Using The Global Positioning System, David M. Tralli, Timothy H. Dixon, Scott A. Stephens Jun 1988

Effect Of Wet Tropospheric Path Delays On Estimation Of Geodetic Baselines In The Gulf Of California Using The Global Positioning System, David M. Tralli, Timothy H. Dixon, Scott A. Stephens

Geodetic baseline measurements using the Global Positioning System (GPS) were acquired in the Gulf of California between Loreto and Cabo San Lucas in Baja California and Mazatlan on the mainland of Mexico. Tropospheric water vapor content was high during the experiment, typically yielding wet path delays in excess of 20 cm at zenith. Surface meteorological (SM) and water vapor radiometer (WVR) measurements were recorded at each site, providing independent means of calibrating the GPS signal for the wet tropospheric path delay. Residual wet delays at zenith are estimated as constants and also as first-order exponentially correlated stochastic processes. In addition, …


A Few Parts In 108 Geodetic Baseline Repeatability In The Gulf Of California Using The Global Positioning System, David M. Tralli, Timothy H. Dixon Jan 1988

A Few Parts In 108 Geodetic Baseline Repeatability In The Gulf Of California Using The Global Positioning System, David M. Tralli, Timothy H. Dixon

School of Geosciences Faculty and Staff Publications

Global Positioning System (GPS) geodetic measurements of 350–650 km baselines across the Pacific-North America plate boundary in the Gulf of California are presented. The analysis employs a four-station U.S. fiducial network and combined carrier phase and pseudorange data. Water vapor radiometer (WVR) data at the Gulf sites are used to calibrate the GPS signal for wet tropospheric path delays. Residual tropospheric delays are modeled as first-order exponentially correlated stochastic processes. The measurement precision for horizontal components is a few parts in 108 or better. Comparison of the Gulf data with other geodetic techniques is not yet possible, however the …
