          Abstract

          Este trabajo presenta los primeros resultados de flujos de CO2 asociados a la actividad volcánica del complejo volcánico Planchón-Peteroa, en la provincia de Mendoza, Argentina. El levantamiento se realizó en el valle del arroyo Los Baños, en el flanco oriental del volcán Peteroa, donde se encuentran manifestaciones de la actividad volcánica (Termas o Baños del Azufre). Los flujos de CO2 se cuantificaron aplicando el método dinámico de cámaras cerradas, calibrado previamente en laboratorio. Los valores hallados, entre 6 g/m²·día y 114 g/m²·día, se distribuyeron lognormalmente y se ajustaron a un modelo logarítmico con efecto pepita cuando se realizaron los variogramas. La curva de probabilidad acumulada demostró tres poblaciones de flujos, con medias poblacionales de 13 g/m²·día (valores vinculados a respiración del suelos), y 29 g/m²·día y 83 g/m²·día (valores anómalos). Estos valores anómalos, correlacionados positivamente con la temperatura del terreno, estarían vinculados a la desgasificación magmática del complejo, ya que se registraron en el mismo nivel topográfico que las aguas surgentes calientes, las que presentan valores de carbono inorgánico disuelto total (TDIC por sus siglas en inglés) -δ13C entre -11.7 ‰ y -9.6 ‰, correspondientes a la interacción del agua con fluidos asociados a gases de origen magmático. Los datos de isótopos estables de δ²H (~-14 ‰) y de δ18O (~-106 ‰) de estas aguas indicaron una contribución principal de aguas meteóricas, lo que sugiere que en el valle del arroyo Los Baños, las aguas de deshielo se infiltran y son calentadas por gases calientes provenientes de subsuelo. En este valle, el ascenso de CO2 resulta en dos expresiones como sigue: emisiones directas a través de las surgencias termales y emisiones difusas a través de los depósitos aluviales.

          Translated abstract

          This work reports the first results of CO2 flux associated to the volcanic activity of the Planchón-Peteroa volcanic complex, Mendoza province, Argentina. The survey was carried out in the valley of arroyo Los Baños, in the eastern lank of the Peteroa volcano, where evidence of volcanic activity is found (Termas o Baños del Azufre). The CO2 fluxes were quantified applying the so-called dynamic closed chamber method, wich was previously calibrated in the laboratory. CO2 luxes ranged from 6 g/m²day to 114 g/m²·day; they were log-normally distributed and they were fitted to a logarithmical model with nugget effect when the variograms were applied. The cumulative probability plot showed three different flux populations with means of 13 g/m²·day (background soil gases) and 29 g/m²·day and 83 g/m²·day (anomalous gases). These anomalous values, which correlated positively with the land temperature, would be related to the magmatic degassing of the complex, since they were registered in the same topographic level that the hot springs, wich showed total dissolved inorganic carbon (TDIC) -δ13C between -11.7 ‰ to -9.6 ‰, corresponding to the interaction of the water with fluids associated to gases of magmatic origin. Isotope data of δ18O (~ -14 ‰) and δ²H (~ -106 ‰) of these water samples indicated a main contribution of meteoric waters; this suggests that in the valley of arroyo Los Baños, melt waters infiltrate into the ground and are warmed up by hot subsoil gases. In this valley, the ascent of CO2 gives rise to two manifestations as follows: direct emissions through the hot springs and diffuse emissions through the alluvial deposits.

          Isotopic Variations in Meteoric Waters.

          H Craig (1961)
          The relationship between deuterium and oxygen-18 concentrations in natural meteoric waters from many parts of the world has been determined with a mass spectrometer. The isotopic enrichments, relative to ocean water, display a linear correlation over the entire range for waters which have not undergone excessive evaporation.
