Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.

Benchmarking and developing numerical Finite Element models of volcanic deformation [PDF]
Volcanic deformation during an unrest episode can provide valuable insights into potential magmatic plumbing system dynamics. Paramount to this is a model linking the recorded ground movement to the causative source at depth.

Abstract Cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) modulate the properties and thus the climate effects of clouds. The North African dust plume is an important source of CCN in the North Atlantic trade‐wind zone. Yet, research into the nature and sources of these CCN is sparse, making it difficult to fully assess related cloud effects. Using combined airborne in

Surface temperature measurements of active lava flows on Kilauea volcano, Hawai'i. [PDF]
Systematic hand-held radiometer measurements of lava surface temperatures in active flows and tubes on Kilauea volcano, Hawai′i reveal complexities that cannot be resolved in remotely sensed data from aircraft or satellites.

Moment magnitude for earthquakes in the Etna volcano area
SUMMARYAccurate quantification of seismic activity in volcanic regions is an important asset for improving hazard and risk assessment. This is especially true for densely populated areas, as in the case of Etna volcano (Southern Italy). There, the volcanic hazard is amplified by the seismic risk of active faults, especially on the eastern flank of the ...

Post-emplacement dynamics of lava flows is governed by several factors such as poroelastic deformation of the substrate; gravity-induced repacking and rearrangement of the vesicle-bearing fluid lava and other void spaces by superposed flows; lava ...

Eruption Source Parameters in Volcanic Plume Modeling: Advances, Challenges, and Future Directions
Abstract Accurately predicting the atmospheric dispersion of volcanic ash and gases is crucial for both scientific understanding and hazard mitigation. Estimating Eruption Source Parameters (ESP), such as mass eruption rate, plume height, duration, and particle size distribution and properties, remains challenging due to the complex nature of volcanic ...

The geodynamics of Mt. Etna volcano during and after the 1984 eruption
Data concerning M > 2.5 earthquakes that occurred at Mt. Etna volcano (Sicily, Italy) during the period April 15th - October 29th, 1984 are here presented and discussed. Only those events with reliable focal mechanisms (at least eight polarities) have
