in the volcanic cloud. The more abundant gases present are
SO2, CO2, HCl, HF, H2O.
In the first month and half we had an averaged flux equals to 400 kg/s (~35 kT/
d) with peaks up to 1300
kg/s (~112 kT/
d). Assuming a constant release of gas until today, the eruption has injected into the
atmosphere an amount of SO2 in the range 3.5 Mt (considering the average flux) – 11.2 Mt (considering
the peak
