Av. Dolores (Urb. Las Begonias B-3), J.L. Bustamante y Rivero, Arequipa, Perú INTRODUCCIÓN El Complejo Volcánico Ampato-Sabancaya (CVAS) está localizado a 60 km al NO de la ciudad de Arequipa (Fig. 1), fue construido durante el Pleistoceno sobre los remanentes de un complejo volcánico más antiguo, el Hualca Hualca (6025 msnm) ubicado al norte, entre el CVAS y valle del río Colca. Este grupo volcánico está cubierto por un importante casquete glaciar, que según Alcalá (2007) cubriría una superficie total (para los tres edificios volcánicos, Sabancaya, Ampato y Hualca Hualca) de 13.7 km2 y tendría un volumen de 1.7 m3 (Fig. 2). El Sabancaya (5980 msnm) constituye la parte joven y activa del complejo volcánico, mientras que el Ampato (6280 msnm) es un estratovolcán compuesto que constituye la parte más antigua del complejo, construida durante el Pleistoceno superior. El Sabancaya es uno de los 7 volcanes activos del arco peruano (Siebert et al., 2010), cuyo último episodio eruptivo ocurrió entre 1988 y 1997 (Gerbe y Thouret, 2004). Dentro del marco del convenio de cooperación existente entre el INGEMMET y el Instituto Francés de Investigación para el Desarrollo (IRD), se está realizando un estudio integral de este complejo volcánico que incluye la evolución geológica y petrológica del complejo (Rivera et al., 2012), así como la evaluación de los peligros volcánicos (Mariño et al., 2012). -

Glaciers on active volcanoes are subject to changes in both climate fluctuations and vol- canic activity. Whereas many studies analysed changes on individual volcanoes, this study presents for the first time a comparison of glacier changes on active volcanoes on a continental scale. Glacier areas were mapped for 59 volcanoes across Latin America around 1986, 1999 and 2015 using a semi- automated band ratio method combined with manual editing using satellite images from Landsat 4/5/ 7/8 and Sentinel-2. Area changes were compared with the Smithsonian volcano database to analyse pos- sible glacier–volcano interactions. Over the full period, the mapped area changed from 1399.3 ± 80 km2 − to 1016.1 ± 34 km2 (−383.2 km2)or−27.4% (−0.92% a 1) in relative terms. -

JUSTIFICACIÓN En el territorio nacional existen alrededor de 400 volcanes, la mayoría de ellos no presentan actividad. Los volcanes activos se encuentran hacia el sur del país en las regiones de Arequipa, Moquegua y Tacna, en parte de la zona volcánica de los Andes (ZVA), estos son: Coropuna, Valle de Andagua, Hualca Hualca, Sabancaya, Ampato, Misti en la Región Arequipa; Ubinas, Ticsani y Huaynaputina en la región Moquegua, y el Yucamani y Casiri en la región Tacna. El Volcán Ubinas es considerado el volcán más activo que tiene el Perú. Desde el año 1550, se han registrado 24 erupciones aprox. (Rivera, 2010). Estos eventos se presentan como emisiones intensas de gases y ceniza precedidos, en algunas oportunidades, de fuertes explosiones. Los registros históricos señalan que el Volcán Ubinas ha presentado un Índice máximo de Explosividad Volcánica (IEV) (Newhall & Self, 1982) de 3, considerado como moderado a grande. -

The analysis of ascending and descending Sentinel-1 orbits (DInSAR) and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) datasets from 2014 to 2019 imaged a radially symmetric inflating area, uplifting at a rate of 35 to 50 mm/yr and centered 5 km north of Sabancaya. The DInSAR and GNSS data were modeled independently. We inverted the DInSAR data to infer the location, depth, and volume change of the deformation source. -
