| Abstract | Volcanic eruptions are driven by excess pressure inside magma conduits, and thus volcanoes can be efficient radiators of acoustic signals. The amplitude and period of an infrasonic pulse generated by an eruption depend on the quantity and acceleration of ejected material. Strombolian and small Vulcanian explosion pulses resemble low-yield TNT blasts and may be observed at distances of tens of kilometers. Vigorous Vulcanian explosions may be observed at ranges of hundreds to thousands of kilometers. Plinian explosions may emit a destructive shock wave as well as generate gravity waves that circumnavigate the globe. Pelean eruptions excite infrasonic waves during the collapse, bursting, and avalanching of lava blocks and debris. In addition to these transient events, most volcanoes exhibit a type of vibration known as tremor, which consists of a sustained oscillation with dominant frequencies in the band of 1-10 Hz. These signals are traditionally attributed to the resonance of magma-gas mixtures inside volcanic conduits. Infrasonic signals generated during tremor, explosion, and pyroclastic flow episodes can be used to monitor an eruption sequence even under low-visibility conditions. Although it is possible to observe eruption pressure signals with individual sensors, infrasonic arrays are more desirable because they can filter out ambiguous signals. However, infrasonic array designs must reduce the detrimental effect of wind noise either through careful site selection or a suitable spatial filter design. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
