The number of VLP seismic events (standard values 5-12) is medium, 9.6 events/hour.

The amplitude of seismic tremor is medium.

The infrasonic activity is medium. The acoustic pressure of explosions is low, 0.3 bar (standard values <1 bar). The amplitude of puffing is low, ~30 mbar.

Tiltmeters analysis does not show any significant deformation of the volcano edifice

Thermal activity of explosive events is low. The number of thermal transients in the NE sector of the crater (standard = 100) is low, 20. The amplitude of thermal transients is low, 5 ºF. Exit velocity of pyroclasts, estimated through thermal camera analysis, is low, 9 m/s.

MODIS thermal anomalies are low: 5 MW (12:18 UTC yesterday).

Rockfall activity: no rockfalls detected.

SO2 flux in the NE sector of the crater terrace is low, 45 t/d

CO2 flux based on the C/S of 7.34 mesured at 04:20 UTC on 2024/01/23 is low, 359 t/d

The volcanic activity is characterized by strombolian explosions and degassing activity (puffing). The number of VLP events shows MEDIUM values (9.6 events/hour). Infrasonic activity is characterized by explosions of MEDIUM pressure and puffing of MEDIUM amplitude. Seismic tremor values are MEDIUM. Thermal activity at the craters is LOW. MODIS/VIIRS images showed LOW thermal anomalies. SO2 flux is LOW (45 t/d). CO2 flux shows LOW value (359 t/d), based on a C/S ratio of 7.34 in the last 24h. Rockfall activity is LOW with no events detected in the last 24h. The volcanic activity index is MEDIUM.
