Geosciences, 2022 The 1963–1967 shallow-to-emergent eruption in Iceland’s Vestmannaeyjar earned a place in the history of volcanology by creating the island of Surtsey while under close observation of volcanologist Sigurdur Thorarinsson (Sigurður Þórarinsson in Icelandic).

The Basaltic Monogenetic Volcanic Field of the Bakony–Balaton UNESCO Global Geopark, Hungary: From Science to Geoeducation and Geotourism [PDF]
Geoconservation Research, 2023 As a part of the long-standing volcanism of the Carpathian–Pannonian Region, a basaltic monogenetic volcanic field developed here from 8–2.3 Ma. This is a specific type of volcanism, when mostly a small volume of magma erupts intermittently and always in

The pyroclastic komatiite complex at Sattasvaara in northern Finland [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1985 The Sattasvaara komatiite complex is part of an extensive zone of explosive komatiitic volcanism which may have been a significant stage in the Lapponian evolution regarded as Archean.

Crystals and inclined conduits: analogue experiments for slug-driven volcanism
Volcanica, 2023 Basaltic volcanism is the dominant mode of volcanism on Earth and exhibits a range of activity, from passive degassing to the most common explosive style: strombolian volcanism.

Explosive volcanic eruptions can act as carbon sinks. [PDF]
Nat CommunVolcanic soils, covering only ~1% of the Earth’s land, store over 5% of the global soil organic C stock. The frequent burial of these soils by tephra fallout from explosive volcanic eruptions is a critical but poorly quantified C storage process in soils

A uniform isotopic and chemical signature of dust exported from Patagonia: Rock sources and occurrence in southern environments [PDF]
, 2007 Patagonia is considered to be the most important source of dust from South America that is deposited in surrounding areas, and we present here a systematic Sr and Nd isotopic study of sediment currently being exported.

Chemical composition and origin of the shock metamorphic rocks of the Sääksjärvi area, Finland [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1973 Chemical compositions of the shock metamorphic rocks of the Lake Sääksjärvi area show that the breccias are considerably richer in potassium and silica and poorer in calcium than the country rocks around Lake Sääksjärvi.
