Tracing sulphur dioxide in volcanic deposits and ash emission during the 2019 Sinabung eruptions
2024
Overview
Sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ) emissions from Mt. Sinabung eruption were quantified in time series for 2019. Both pyroclastic materials and gas or aerosol ejected during volcanic eruption contain sulphur as sulphate salt deposits coating volcanic ash grains or gasses. Sulphur dioxide from the eruption will directly impact the surrounding area. Spectral from satellite optical sensors can be used to monitor and measure SO 2 gas near real-time after an eruption. The distribution of SO 2 column density in the atmosphere was tracked using the Sentinel-5P satellite. Regression kriging (RK) is applied to predict the spatial distribution of sulphur. The area under study is located in a radius of 3 to 7 km from the eruptive center, covering an area of about 4,517 ha. A total of 51 soil samples and volcanic ash were collected from 0- 20 cm soil depth based on a 1x1 km grid interval. All samples were air- dried, sieved, and analyzed for pH, sulphate, and total SO3 using XRF. The Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform was also used to process Sentinel-5P satellite imagery to determine the number and distribution of SO 2 column density in the atmosphere during 2019. The pH of the ash is very acidic to neutral (3.56 - 6.55), while soils are considered acidic to neutral (4.67 - 6.52). The available sulphate content in soil ranges from 0 to 303.39 ppm and 0 to 142.47 ppm in volcanic ash samples. SO 2 content in ash ranges from 0 to 16.53% and 0 to 3.71% in soils. Sentinel-5P satellite image spectral data shows that SO 2 is concentrated mainly in the southern region, with the highest level occurring in August 2019. This study can serve as one of the volcanic mitigation programs and forecast the distribution of SO 2 in an active volcanic region of Indonesia.
