Open-path Fourier transform spectroscopy of gas emissions from Oldoinyo Lengai volcano, Tanzania
We report here novel field spectroscopic measurements of the proportions of H2O, CO2, CO and SO2 in gas emissions from Oldoinyo Lengai, the world's unique, active carbonatite volcano. We found that CO2 constitutes <40mol% of emissions from a lava lake, and 25mol% from a cooler fumarole v...
