Volcanic unrest is complex and capable of producing multiple hazards that
can be triggered by a number of different subsurface processes. Scientific
interpretations of unrest data aim to better understand (i) the processes
behind unrest and their associated surface signals, (ii) their future
spatio-temporal evolution and (iii) their significance as precursors for
future eruptive phenomena. In a societal context, additional preparatory or
contingency actions might be needed because relationships between and among individuals and social groups will be perturbed and even changed in the presence of significant uncertainty. Here we analyse some key examples from three international and multidisciplinary projects (VUELCO, CASAVA and STREVA) where issues around the limits of volcanic knowledge impact on volcanic risk governance. We provide an overview of the regional and global context of volcanic unrest and highlight scientific and societal challenges with a geographical emphasis on the Caribbean and Latin America.
