Gravimeter dataset (IFSI (INAF) Prototype #1 @ 1 Hz) from INGV/NEMO-SN1 seafloor platform, GNDT-SN1 project 2002-2003 - Western Ionian Sea site (East Sicily) EMSO network
Entry ID: moist.emso.western_ionian_sea.gndt-sn1.2002.nemo-sn1.gravimeter.24

Summary
Abstract: A prototype of gravity meter built at the Istituto di Fisica dello Spazio Interplanetario (IFSI) of the National Institute of Astro-Physics (INAF) was installed on the SN1 deep-sea multidisciplinary observatory, offshore of the Eastern coast of Sicily. The gravity meter provides measurements of variation of the vertical component of the acceleration with respect to an initial reference value.

Purpose: The comparison between seismic signal with the continuous gravimetric measurement can help to characterise different styles of the Etna volcanic activity.
