In order to determine the positions of earthquakes originating from volcanoes, we have conducted investigations by means of various seismographs at Asama for the last 25 years. As a result, it was made clear that earthquakes observed at the volcano during the period consist mainly of the B-type earthquakes, of which the epicentres concentrate near the summit crater. The depth of these earthquakes was studied on the basis of the arrival time of the initial motion, the distribution of the maximum amplitude of the respective earthquakes, and sometimes the duration of preliminary tremor. Needless to say seismographs or transducers were set near the crater, on the mountain-side, and at the foot of the volcano so as to cover the whole epicentral area. An effective way to determine the depth of extremely shallow earthquakes such as the B-type ones is to compare the maximum amplitude of the respective earthquakes at various epicentral distances. On the other hand, a remakable feature of Volcano Asama is that earthquakes deeper than 1km in hypocentre rarely took place during the period, notwithstanding the fact that the B-type earthquakes were markedly predominant throughout the active and calm states of the volcano.

A volcanic gas phase which is formed by various chemical reactions within a magma reservoir is transferred through a channel or fissure and is emitted into the air. Consequently a system (volcanic gas + magma) is open for gases. A continuous emission of gases shows that the system is not in a state of equilibrium. A steady-state emission is assumed and the thermodynamics of irreversible processes is applied. It is concluded that the steady-state emission is possible when a pressure difference between the magma reservoir and the earth’s surface is fixed as a constant, while a temperature difference is changed as free. As the first approximation, a binary gas mixture of H
2O-H
2S is assumed for a simplified model of volcanic gas. Applying the results thus obtained to fumaroles at Showa-Shinzan, it is inferred that the ascending gas increases its H
2S concentration in nearly ten times while the temperature drop is negligible.
