Projeto PRR

Sumário

In line with IVAR’s strategic vision for 2025–2029, the acquisition of the scientific instrumentation outlined in this application is essential to strengthening and consolidating key research lines. The requested equipment builds on previous investments and directly supports IVAR’s core mission of advancing cutting-edge, interdisciplinary volcanological research with a strong societal impact.The instruments will primarily reinforce the thematic areas of Physical Volcanology and Magmatism, Gas Geochemistry, Hydrogeology and Environmental Geology. Their acquisition will enhance our capacity to investigate the geochemical behavior of magmatic and volcanic systems, contributing significantly to the modeling of magmatic and volcanic-hydrothermal processes. These efforts are aligned with the RESEARCH TRANSLATION priority area and are expected to generate outcomes with significant impact both in the scientific community and for society, including the development of monitoring capabilities.The data generated will not only contribute to our understanding of volcanic systems, directly impacting monitoring and risk assessment, as well as evaluating the carbon cycle and the contribution of greenhouse gas emissions from volcanoes.The installation of multiparametric probes, along with improvements to the Pico Mountain station, will enable the collection of continuous, high-quality data streams. These data may contribute to the development of innovative monitoring approaches that integrate data science and artificial intelligence, thereby generating new insights into volcanic activity and environmental change.Overall, these acquisitions are fully aligned with IVAR’s 2025–2029 vision to embrace emerging technological developments, promote data-driven science, and enhance monitoring and response capabilities. This will reinforce IVAR’s leadership in volcanology and risk assessment.
