using space-borne data, as well as satellite data acquisition

and analysis, ash-dispersion models, wind field data, case

studies, hazard mitigation, transmitting warnings and

discussion of global impacts of eruptions. 

This 363-page book is well written, self-contained and provides all up to date information for anyone interested in the volcanic activity over the North Pacific, and a must have for everyone interested in volcanology and remote sensing.
