Abstract
We develop an automatic system for the sampling of ash fall particles to be used for continuous monitoring of magma ascent and eruptive dynamics at active volcanoes The system consists of a sampling apparatus and cameras to monitor surface phenomena during eruptions The Sampling Apparatus for Time Series Unmanned Monitoring of Ash SATSUMAI and SATSUMAII is less than 10 kg in weight and works automatically for more than a month with a 10kg lead battery to obtain a total of 30 to 36 samples in one cycle of operation The time range covered in one cycle varies from less than an hour to several months depending on the aims of observation allowing researchers to target minutescale fluctuations in a single eruptive event as well as daily to weekly trends in persistent volcanic activity The latest version SATSUMAII also enables control of sampling parameters remotely by email commands Durability of the apparatus is high our prototypes worked for several months in rainy and typhoon seasons at windy and humid locations and under strong sunlight We have been successful in collecting ash samples emitted from Showa crater almost everyday for more than 4 years 2008–2012 at Sakurajima volcano in southwest JapanDevelopment of ash sampling apparatus has not been successful without help of staffs of Technical Division Faculty of Science Tohoku University Observation at Sakurajima has been carried out under the strong support of Sakurajima Volcano Research Center Kyoto University The manuscript has been highly improved by fruitful comments and pieces of advice by Jacopo Taddeucci Daniele Andronico and Maurizio Ripepe We thank all of them This work was supported by DPRI Kyoto University general collaboration research 21G12 and by MEXT/JSPS KAKENHI grant number 18740332 and grant number 24710203 GrantinAid for Young Scientists B
