Abstract
The FOSA (FOgo Seismic Array) project has been carried out from October 2015 to December 2016 to investigate the seismicity of Fogo volcano after its eruption in 2014/2015. Fogo is the only volcano of the Cape Verde archipelago with reported historic eruptions. The eruptions occur frequently with an interval of about 20 years. However, the structure and extent of the related volcanic plumbing system are not well understood. The focus of the FOSA project was on the detection of ongoing magmatic activity and information about the plumbing system, using seismic array techniques. The array of the FOSA study was operated from October 2015 to December 2016, close to the village Achada Furna. From January 2016 we complemented the network with three additional broadband stations for an improved event detection and localization.
