Abstract Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are gravity currents that frequently form during explosive volcanic eruptions. These ground‐hugging density currents consist of high‐temperature mixtures of pyroclasts (e.g., ash, pumice), lithics, and gas.

Volcanism on the Pacific Ring of Fire: It's Going to Blow Up! (title provided or enhanced by cataloger) [PDF]
In this activity students familiarize themselves with some basic concepts of volcanology and investigate a portion of the Ring of Fire. They then research the answers to questions on the provided worksheet.

Abstract Tropical low‐cloud feedback is the largest source of uncertainty in climate sensitivity, yet multi‐century records of surface shortwave radiation are scarce. We calibrate Porites coral δ13C against satellite photosynthetically available radiation (PAR) and reconstruct monthly PAR for the northern South China Sea during the Medieval Climate ...

Martian volcanism: A review [PDF]
Martian volcanism is reviewed. It is emphasized that lava plains constitute the major type of effusive flow, and can be differentiated by morphologic characteristics.

Quaternary volcanism, tephras, and tephra-derived soils in New Zealand: an introductory review [PDF]
This two-part article comprises brief introductions to (1) volcanism and its products in general and to the broad pattern of Quaternary volcanism and tephrostratigraphy in North Island, and (2) the ensuing tephra-derived soils of North Island.

Abstract We present an annual resolution oxygen isotope anomaly (Δδ18 ${\Delta }{\delta }^{18}$Oc) record, derived from eight teak (Tectona grandis L.f.) tree ring‐dated δ18 ${\delta }^{18}$Oc series from Muna, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia (5.3° ${}^{\circ}$S, 123° ${}^{\circ}$E).

Volcanic Ash Affected by Lightning During the Hunga 2022 Eruption
Abstract The 15 January 2022 eruption of Hunga volcano (Kingdom of Tonga) produced the most lightning ever documented during an explosive eruption to date. This study estimates the mass of erupted tephra that may be structurally or electromagnetically affected by the lightning, based upon lightning peak current, channel length, and ash plume particle ...

Climatic impact of volcanic eruptions [PDF]
Studies have attempted to 'isolate' the volcanic signal in noisy temperature data. This assumes that it is possible to isolate a distinct volcanic signal in a record that may have a combination of forcings (ENSO, solar variability, random fluctuations ...

Abstract In situ measurements of stratospheric aerosol are the only measurements that provide sufficient detail to determine aerosol number, size, surface area, volume/mass, and effective radius; however, these measurements are limited in space and time.

Reconstructing the complex history of a small-volume basaltic volcano (Ngatutura volcanic field, New Zealand) : The role of subsurface processes and implications for diatreme formation : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Earth Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Monogenetic volcanism is very common on continents and often occur very close to civilisation. Limiting the ability of volcanologists to predict the location and extent of future eruptions at monogenetic volcanic fields is the lack of knowledge about ...
