Editorial: Multidisciplinary Investigations for Determining the Structure and Dynamics of Active Volcanic Systems

Abstract

Multidisciplinary investigations are widely considered by the scientific community to be the key strategy for understanding the interplay between magmatic processes and volcanic structures as a primary task for volcanological research. Integrating geophysical, geochemical and geological datasets has the potential to provide accurate constraints on the characteristics of volcanic structures and their impact on magma storage and eruption. This Research Topic aims to provide a coherent selection of recent achievements in different aspects of volcanology, geophysics, petrology and/or geochemistry to provide new information about the structure and dynamics of active volcanic and magmatic systems. The presented contributions include the application of laboratory to field-based experimental or modelling studies, geophysics methods and their development and integration post-inversion for the investigations of active volcanic areas.
