Application Note: Airborne Spectrometers Monitor Volcanic Emissions

Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Email
DUNEDIN, Fla., Nov. 27, 2015 — Flying into the maws of active volcanoes, spectrometers from Ocean Optics will help scientists study the effects of eruptions on climate. As part of the Trail by Fire project, the Flame miniature spectrometers will be flown directly below volcano plumes aboard unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). They will take differential optical absorption spectrometry (DOAS) measurements to quantify sulfur dioxide (SO2) levels. The Flame spectrometers will fly aboard TurboAce Matrix unmanned aerial vehicles. Courtesy of Ocean Optics. The Trail by Fire project aims to study volcanoes in the...Read full article
