The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 229-246., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

An overview of explosive volcanism on Mars
Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2021 Abstract Decades of space exploration reveal that Mars has been reshaped by volcanism throughout its history. The range of observed volcanic landforms shows that effusive and explosive eruptions have occurred, albeit unevenly in time and space. Evidence for explosive volcanism—characterized as eruptions in which magma is disrupted by the expansion of

Explosive volcanism on Venus: Transient volcanic explosions as a mechanism for localized pyroclast dispersal [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 1995 It is proposed that transient volcanic explosions of the vulcanian type may provide a mechanism for the generation and dispersal of pyroclastic material on Venus. The influence of the Venusian high atmospheric pressure environment implies that continuous discharge plinian eruptive activity is relatively uncommon: the tendency for suppression of ...

Models of explosive volcanism [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 1995 Abstract. We describe a series of models which illustrate the controls upon the evolution of an erupting mixture of ash and gas during an explosive volcanic eruption. For large eruption rates, material typically issues from a crater as a supersonic jet which may entrain and heat sufficient air to become buoyant and form a Plinian eruption column.

Explosive volcanism on Santorini, Greece
Geological Magazine, 1989 AbstrctSantorini volcanic field has had 12 major (1–10 km3or more of magma), and numerous minor, explosive eruptions over the last ~ 200 ka. Deposits from these eruptions (Thera Pyroclastic Formation) are well exposed in caldera-wall successions up to 200 m thick.

Explosive volcanic eruptions-VII. The ranges of pyroclasts ejected in transient volcanic explosions [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 1993 An earlier treatment of the motions of pyroclasts produced in discrete volcanic explosions assumed that clasts were ejected into a stationary atmosphere. We argue here that the air in the vicinity of an explosion site will itself be moving radially away from the source with a speed comparable to that of the clasts, especially at early times after the ...

Long‐lived explosive volcanism on Mercury [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2014 AbstractThe duration and timing of volcanic activity on Mercury are key indicators of the thermal evolution of the planet and provide a valuable comparative example for other terrestrial bodies. The majority of effusive volcanism on Mercury appears to have occurred early in the planet's geological history (~4.1–3.55 Ga), but there is also evidence for ...

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.The transport properties and electrochemical reactivity of protic ionic liquids (ILs) are compared with those of aprotic analogs. Protic ILs are characterized by strong cation–anion hydrogen bonding and labile protons, enabling proton conduction and highlighting their potential as fuel cell electrolytes.

Archaeometry, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lake sediments are natural archives of past environmental dynamics and how these systems have responded to past climate variability. Sediment geochemistry, governed by local geology and climate processes, is unique to each lake‐catchment and geochemical proxies must be validated for each study site.
