## 2. Investigate the central question

Compare dated water-level, temperature, gas and photographic records from published monitoring. Separate measurements from inferred underground processes. Check whether proposed pressure or landslide mechanisms predict the observed sequence. Seek later published studies before making any current-state assertion.
