Walking traverse and scanning DOAS measurements of volcanic gas emission rates

We report here the first measurements of volcanic SO2 fluxes obtained on foot, using a miniature ultraviolet spectrometer. Our measurements, based on differential optical absorption spectroscopy (DOAS), were performed ≈1 km from the summit of Masaya volcano (Nicaragua) in December 2001, and yielded...
