Abstract

Diffuse CO2 and H2S emission to the atmosphere due to volcanic activity is a very useful geochemical tool for the detection of activity and pre-eruptive phases changes in volcanic buildings. This project was specified in an annual study of the diffuse CO2 emission of the volcanic complex Isla de El Hierro to the atmosphera.
