Abstract

Continuous seismic observation of volcanic earthquakes related to migration of magma or gas, is one of the most important methods used to monitor active volcanoes. In this review paper, we introduce the characteristics of volcanic earthquakes and their classification based on locations of foci, waveforms, frequencies, lithology, and source mechanisms. We also present some examples of successful warnings of volcanic eruptions and the present status of some observations of volcanic earthquakes in Japan, the United States, Italy, and New Zealand.

마그마 또는 가스가 지하에서 이동함으로써 발생되는 화산지진의 연속적인 관측은 활화산 감시의 가장 중요한 방법 중 하나이다. 이 해설논문에서는 화산지진의 특징에 대해 살펴보았으며, 진원, 지진파형, 주파수, 암상 그리고 메커니즘에 따른 분류를 간단히 설명하였다. 또한 일본, 미국, 이탈리아, 뉴질랜드의 성공적인 분화 경보 사례와 화산지진 감시 실태를 소개하였다.
