Monitoring volcanic thermal anomalies from space: Size matters
Measuring temperatures on volcanoes from space provides important constraints on the transfer of mass and heat to the Earth's surface. Time series of multispectral infrared images, acquired by the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) between 2000 and 2009, were...

Measuring temperatures on volcanoes from space provides important constraints on the transfer of mass and heat to the Earth's surface.
