“…This enables continuous long‐term monitoring with real‐time data from a diverse set of instrumentation. For example, the cabled observatory was in place during the April 2015 eruption, providing an extraordinary inter‐disciplinary data set that has been used to interpret that event in rich detail (Baillard et al., 2019; Caplan‐Auerbach et al., 2017; Clague et al., 2017, 2018; Hefner et al., 2020; Le Saout et al., 2020; Levy et al., 2018; Nooner & Chadwick, 2016; Waldhauser et al., 2020; Wilcock et al., 2016; Xu et al., 2018). Other data sets that provide valuable information on the crustal structure and magma storage system beneath Axial Seamount were collected by a seismic tomography study (West et al., 2001) and two multi‐channel seismic reflection surveys, one 2‐D survey performed in 2002 (Arnulf et al., 2014, 2018) and a 3‐D survey in 2019 (Arnulf et al., 2019, 2020), which have revealed the location and geometry of a large shallow magma reservoir 1.5–2.5 km below the caldera, and a series of deeper stacked sills from 2.5 to 4.5 km depth below the southern caldera (Carbotte et al., 2020).…”
