Tiltmeter
- John Seach
A tiltmeter is an instruments which
measures angular displacements of the earths surface.
In volcanology it can give an indication
of volcano inflation.
On volcanoes with low viscosity magma
such as Hawaii and Iceland the tiltmeter may provide immdiate information
on the magma injection into the volcanic system. This may provide advance
warning of an eruption.
