Short summary
Fumarolic fields with near-surface temperature <100°C are very common features of volcanoes. Their space/time variability is controlled by hydro-meteorological conditions, vapor flow and permeability, reflecting changes of volcanic activity. Since the thermal monitoring of these fumaroles is a low cost, up-to-date technique, it has been successfully applied in volcanic surveillance programs of Italian active volcanoes, giving useful insights on the evolution of their activity state.
