能符合活火山的時間經驗定義(Szakacs, 1994)。另外,綜合過去在大屯火山群的微震分佈、氦 同位素、噴氣口的火山氣體、及地下溫度的測量及遍佈高溫的溫泉,顯示其地底下應還有岩漿 庫的存在(圖 1-2)(楊燦堯,2000;楊燦堯等,2003;Yeh and Chen, 1991;Song et al., 2000b;
Lin et al., 2005a, 2005b;Lee et al., 2005;Yang et al., 1999),依據活火山的現象定義應認定其 為活火山(Szakacs, 1994)。馬國鳳等人(Ma et al., 1996)利用地震斷層掃描法(Seismic

二、過去的研究結果
經濟部中央地質調查所於民國 93 年至民國 100 年執行「大台北地區特殊地質災害調查與 監測」兩期共 8 年之計畫。其中,在火山活動的調查監測方面,建立了溫泉水質、火山氣體以 及地下溫度等多面向之監測站,長時間蒐集火山地區之環境資料,了解長時間之地球化學及地 下熱流變化,並配合大台北計畫項下子計畫所布設的火山微震觀測站網資料,進一步評估火山 之活動性。故過去八年在大屯火山群的火山流體和地熱監測結果顯示:
1、大屯火山群的溫泉水成因,馬槽和硫磺谷的溫泉可能與岩漿源有關,地熱谷溫泉可能是 天水和地層中的滷水混合形成的,而小油坑溫泉則受到蒸發作用的影響。
2、溫泉水的變化與微震發生頻率有一定的關係,顯示水質的變化可能與地底下的流體因素 有關。
3、溫泉水水質和水化學的監測顯示過去幾年的變化相對穩定。
