This thermal activity was manifested in pulses of high water temperature that coincided with ocean tide cycles. The seawater temperature anomalies were detected by a thermometric sensor attached to the tide gauge (bottom pressure sensor). This was installed where the seawater circulation and the locations of known thermal anomalies, fumaroles and thermal springs, together favor the detection of water warmed within the caldera. Detection of the increased thermal activity was also possible because sea ice, which covers the entire caldera during the austral winter months, insulates the water and thus reduces temperature exchange between seawater and atmosphere. In these conditions, the water temperature data has been shown to provide significant information about Deception volcano activity. The detected seawater temperature increase, also observed in soil temperature readings, suggests rapid and near-simultaneous increase in geothermal activity with onset of caldera inflation and an increased number of seismic events observed in the following austral summer.}, publisher = {Springer}, keywords = {Caldera unrest}, keywords = {Seawater temperature anomalies}, keywords = {Deception Island}, keywords = {Antarctic Peninsula}, title = {Caldera unrest detected with seawater temperature anomalies at Deception Island, Antarctic Peninsula}, doi = {10.1007/s00445-018-1216-2}, author = {Berrocoso Domínguez, Manuel and Prates, Gonçalo and Fernández Ros, Alberto and Peci, Luis Miguel and de Gil, Amos and Rosado Moscoso, Belén and Páez Jiménez, Raúl and Jigena Antelo, Bismarck}, }
