Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2016 For those who remember the classic disaster-docudrama Supervolcano (BBC-Discovery Channel 2005), the adjective “eruptible” is likely to ring a bell. Set in the near future and generally quite scientifically literate, the movie envisions volcanologists trying desperately to evaluate the near-term threat posed by the giant Yellowstone magmatic system.

Multi-proxy dating the ‘Millennium Eruption’ of Changbaishan to late 946 CE
, 2017 Ranking among the largest volcanic eruptions of the Common Era (CE), the ‘Millennium Eruption’ of Changbaishan produced a widely-dispersed tephra layer (known as the B-Tm ash), which represents an important tie point for palaeoenvironmental studies in ...

A remarkable recurrent nova in M 31: The 2010 eruption recovered and evidence of a six-month period
, 2015 The Andromeda Galaxy recurrent nova M31N 2008-12a has been caught in eruption nine times. Six observed eruptions in the seven years from 2008 to 2014 suggested a duty cycle of ~1 year, which makes this the most rapidly recurring system known and the ...

Terrestrial analogs and thermal models for Martian flood lavas [PDF]
, 2000 The recent flood lavas on Mars appear to have a characteristic “platy-ridged” surface morphology different from that inferred for most terrestrial continental flood basalt flows.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract A subadult Moschognathus whaitsi from the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa, was scanned using synchrotron radiation X‐ray computed tomography (SRXCT). Its subadult state allowed the cranial bones and teeth to be identified and individually reconstructed in 3D.

The largest deep-ocean silicic volcanic eruption of the past century
Science Advances, 2018 A submersible study of the products of a large submarine eruption demonstrates the influence of the ocean on eruption dynamics. The 2012 submarine eruption of Havre volcano in the Kermadec arc, New Zealand, is the largest deep-ocean eruption in history ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The anatomical description of the hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica) remains largely unexplored, due to limited specimen availability and preservation challenges. This study employed digital imaging techniques, conventional histology, and computed tomography to provide visualization of

An ashy septingentenarian: the Kaharoa tephra turns 700 (with notes on its volcanological, archaeological, and historical importance) [PDF]
, 2014 Most of us are aware of the basaltic Tarawera eruption on 10th June 1886: the high toll on life (~120 people), landscape devastation, and loss of the Pink and White Terraces.
