UnderVolc (2009-2012) is an international research project which aim is to obtain dense and high quality seismological, acoustic, geodetic (gps) and geomorphology data on one of the most active volcano in the world, namely Piton de la Fournaise on La Réunion island (France). Our goal is then to broadly diffuse the acquired data to promote innovative research on the topics of volcanology, volcano-seismology, volcano-geodesy, ...

Le projet UnderVolc (2009-2012) est un projet de recherche international dont l'objectif est d'acquérir et de diffuser des données sismologiques, acoustiques, géodésiques et geomorphologiques sur l'un des volcans les plus actifs au monde, Le Piton de la Fournaise (île de la Réunion). Notre objectif est de favoriser des projets de recherches variés et innovant sur des thèmes tels que la sismologie volcanique, la déformation des édifices volcaniques, la prédiction des éruptions ...
