- Description
Radar satellites can detect surface movements down to the millimetre. Italy’s Phlegraean Fields – or Campi Flegrei – is a large, volcanic area near the city of Naples. Data from the Sentinel-1 mission will be employed to monitor this and other areas, helping us to understand the processes happening below Earth’s surface.
