The IMPROVE multi-parametric experiment at Krafla took place from June 17 to July 3 (with some groups continuing further). A total of 41 personnel took place, including 14 Early Stage Researchers recruited under IMPROVE. The experiment has a strong scientific content, as it is described in the project:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OBJECTIVE #1. <\/em><\/strong>IMPROVE will attack the present-day major limitation in underground imaging<\/em> of volcanoes, by concentrating the research of 9 ESRs and their scientific tutorship teams in a<\/em> coordinated, multi-disciplinary effort aimed at testing current-day models, and developing<\/em> new ones, at Krafla, the unique place where ground- truth testing can be conducted thanks<\/em> to direct knowledge of the magma-rock interface.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also has a similarly strong educational content, justifying the participation of all of the IMPROVE ESRs (one still to be recruited at the time), including those focusing their research activities on Mount Etna.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t
