Scientific paper

The authors of the comment note that Bonneville and Gouze failed to predict the 9 December, 1991 eruption of the south flank of Mount Etna right on the anomaly A4 discussed in their study. In their reply, Bonneville and Gouze point out that they never intended to forecast volcanic events several years ahead. They argue that, considering the time constants of the thermal events in active volcanic areas, the thermal infrared method can only be used to forecast magmatic intrusions or eruptions several days to several weeks but not several years before the event.
