Discrete explosive eruptions, including vulcanian eruptions, occur at various stages during the effusion of viscous lava. However, the differences in occurrence time and mechanisms are not yet well understood or categorized.

Why Deep-Water Eruptions Are So Different From Subaerial Eruptions
Magmas erupted in deep-water environments (>500 m) are subject to physical constraints very different to those for subaerial eruptions, including hydrostatic pressure, bulk modulus, thermal conductivity, heat capacity and the density of water mass ...

Quiet Sun Explosive Events: Jets, Splashes, and Eruptions
Explosive events are small transition region phenomena characterised by broad non-Gaussian wings in their line profiles. Images from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) give a first view of the plasma dynamics at the sites of explosive events seen in O ...

Ice core evidence for a second volcanic eruption around 1809 in the Northern Hemisphere [PDF]
A volcanic signal observed in ice cores from both polar regions six years prior to Tambora is attributed to an unknown tropical eruption in 1809. Recovery of dacitic tephra from the 1809 horizon in a Yukon ice core (Eclipse) that is chemically distinct ...

Observations of the altitude of the volcanic plume during the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull, April–May 2010 [PDF]
The eruption of Eyjafjallajökull volcano in 2010 lasted for 39 days, 14 April–23 May. The eruption had two explosive phases separated by a phase with lava formation and reduced explosive activity.

The 1723 AD violent Strombolian and phreatomagatic eruption at Irazu volcano (Costa Rica) [PDF]
The largest of the recorded historic eruptions at Irazú volcano began on February 16, 1723 and lasted until at least December 11. We here critically examine deposits of this eruption exposed on the summit of Irazú. Our reconstruction of the eruption is

Volatile Transport by Volcanic Plumes on Earth, Venus and Mars [PDF]
Explosive volcanic eruptions can produce sustained, buoyant columns of ash and gas in the atmosphere (Fig. 1). Large flood basalt eruptions may also include significant explosive phases that generate eruption columns.

Revised calendar date for the Taupo eruption derived by ¹⁴C wiggle-matching using a New Zealand kauri ¹⁴C calibration data set [PDF]
Taupo volcano in central North Island, New Zealand, is the most frequently active and productive rhyolite volcano on Earth. Its latest explosive activity about 1800 years ago generated the spectacular Taupo eruption, the most violent eruption known in ...
