The short life of the volcanic island New Late’iki (Tonga) analyzed by multi-sensor remote sensing data
Abstract Satellite-based Earth observation plays a key role for monitoring volcanoes, especially those which are located in remote areas and which very often are not observed by a terrestrial monitoring network. In our study we jointly analyzed data from thermal (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrom...
