Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Presently, the advances in knowledge regarding the inner structure of active volcanoes are due to the increasing number of works focused on seismic tomography studies using different techniques, approaches, and types of seismic waves. We have examples of realistic images obtained from first P-waves onsets, or combining with information from S-waves, using surface waves or seismic noise, among others. At the same time, we complement this information with attenuation studies obtaining 3-D images, or the separation of scattering and intrinsic effects. Additional active and passive seismic sources can be used, and we can compare different approaches to obtain results.

In this Special Issue, we encourage you to submit your recent results, obtained from different volcanic areas using different techniques; you can compare different results, methodologies, and volcanic regimes. New theoretical studies or approximations are welcome. This Special Issue is an opportunity to have an open discussion in which your results can been compared to other works.

This Special Issue is an opportunity to participate in a joint project, in which experts will consider your work as a part of a whole, and, therefore, there are no limitations to originality, size, completeness, new approaches, or joint interpretations.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Geosciences is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
