- •
We present the measurement of atmospheric SO2 monitoring at the Sulphur Springs, Saint Lucia.
- •
Passive sampler measurements in the dry season exceeded levels hazardous to sensitive persons.
- •
SO2 dispersion patterns are primarily influenced by rainfall and proximity to the main vents.
- •
Information on gas hazards was prepared to help reduce the publics' risk from unsafe exposure.
