thermal imaging volcanoes

  1. Thermal Imaging Ash Cloud Detection System

    Since the eruption of Iceland’s Eyjafjallajokull volcano grounded most of UK airspace, scientists have been trying to come up with some kind of Ash cloud detection system. A standard jet engine superheats the ash particles, which turns them to glass inside the engine itself resulting in the engine stopping mid air. Continue reading →
  2. Volcanic Thermal Imaging

    The magnificent power and danger of volcanoes intrigue and fascinate Geological Researchers. They are a window into the centre of the Earth and allow researchers to better understand the Earth itself. Through the use of a thermal imaging camera, a researcher can measure volcanic heat without the need for contact with the lava. A thermal camera is capable of recording radiated heat and displaying the thermal image and temperature reading on the display. Continue reading →
