Abstract
In this work the classification of Sentinel-3 Sea and Land Surface Temperature (S3-SLSTR) images with a focus on volcanic cloud detection through a Neural Networks (NNs) approach is presented.Since the hazardous nature of eruptions, a fast and reliable method to monitor the evolution of volcanic clouds in real time is of primary interest. NNs represent a suitable tool for this purpose given their short processing time once trained, and their ability to solve complex problems as those related to natural events.The present research starts from the generation of the training patterns by means of MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data collected during the 2010 Eyjafjallajokull (Iceland) eruption, it goes through the training of the NN, and ends with the application of the NN-based model to SLSTR data collected during the 2019 Raikoke (Kuril Island, Russia) eruption.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
