Scientific paper

We have analyzed Galileo NIMS data for Io volcanoes Zamama, Culann and Tupan Patera. We have quantified thermal emission and estimated effusion rates. Volcanic activity at these locations is similar to that at Prometheus, and is likely fed from shallow magma chambers. Future Io missions should obtain daily observations of individual volcanoes to constrain eruption style and evolution.
