Question 62

A volcanologist, Dr. Vance, monitored the activity of an active volcano to assess changes in its status. Over the course of one week, she recorded the daily average seismic tremor amplitude (in micrometres, μm\mu\text{m}μm) and the daily sulphur dioxide (SO2\text{SO}_2SO2​) emissions (in kilotonnes).
