The Near Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (NIMS) has obtained spectra of volcanoes on the surface of the jovian satellite Io. Fits to data using a silicate cooling model allow us to constrain lava eruption rates and eruption age. The thermal signatures of the hot spots are indicative of active and cool

To determine how active volcanism might affect the standard picture of sulfur dioxide photochemistry on Io, we have developed a one-dimensional atmospheric model in which a variety of sulfur-, oxygen-, sodium-, potassium-, and chlorine-bearing volatiles are volcanically outgassed at Io's surface and
