This is an experiment to tomographically image the magma chambers beneath Silali and Paka volcanoes. These are recently active volcanoes within the northern Rift Valley of Kenya. Successful imaging of the magma chambers would enhance geothermal exploration capabilities and potentially increase electrical generating capacity in Kenya.
