The 2024 edition of the multiparametric BAcIO experiment has been held in Stromboli from 22 to 30 May 2024. BAcIO is the acronym for “Broadband Acquisition and Imaging Operation”. As for the preceding edition, the 2024 edition has been held as part of the INGV UNO departmental strategic project. Every year BAcIO brings together specialists in volcano monitoring and observation techniques from all over the world.

The objective of BAcIO is to promote the synergistic use of different measurement techniques in the field, encouraging the sharing of skills and the expansion of our knowledge of eruptive processes. This time too, therefore, as in previous editions, we have seen a spectacular deployment of multiple systems for image acquisition alongside instruments for recording acoustic, seismic, geochemical and deformation signals.

The focus of the observation concerned various aspects of the eruptive activity of the volcano, such as the dynamics of the eruptive plumes and the ground dispersion of the products expelled from the volcano.
