Acoustic Flow Monitor (AFM) site in the Drift River valley, near Redoubt Volcano, Alaska. The key
component of the AFM system is a seismometer, buried in the ground nearby, that responds to the high-frequency (10-300
Hz) vibrations that characterize lahars.
Inspired by the Nevado del Ruiz tragedy in 1985,
the AFM system was developed
and tested at Mount Redoubt, and then successfully used
in the Philippines to monitor lahars at Mount Pinatubo.
