A search for the volcanomagnetic signal at Deception volcano (South Shetland I., Antarctica)
After the increase in seismic activity detected during the 1991-1992 summer survey at Deception Island, the continuous measurement of total magnetic intensity was included among the different techniques used to monitor this active volcano. The Polish geomagnetic observatory Arctowski, located on Kin...
