Revised calendar date for the Taupo eruption derived by ¹⁴C wiggle-matching using a New Zealand kauri ¹⁴C calibration data set [PDF]

, 2011
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 ...

Signatures of widespread Surtseyan volcanism at the northern Reykjanes ridge

Communications Earth & Environment
Submarine explosive volcanism shapes seafloor morphology, impacts marine ecosystems, and poses risks to maritime infrastructure and coastal communities. However, its occurrences and drivers remain poorly constrained, especially for basaltic systems. Here

Potential atmospheric impact of the Toba Mega‐Eruption ∼71,000 years ago [PDF]

, 1996
An ∼6‐year long period of volcanic sulfate recorded in the GISP2 ice core about 71,100 ± 5000 years ago may provide detailed information on the atmospheric and climatic impact of the Toba mega‐eruption. Deposition of these aerosols occur at the beginning

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Subglacial explosive volcanism in the Ross Sea of Antarctica

Communications Earth & Environment
The interaction between magmatic systems and ice sheet dynamics in polar ocean basins is a critical, yet poorly known Earth system process with implications for cryosphere evolution and planetary analogs.

VOLCANIC CONTRIBUTIONS TO SEDIMENTATION IN UPPER BURDIGALIAN-LOWER LANGHIAN SEDIMENTS OF THE VENETIAN MOLASSIC BASIN

Rivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2017
In the Upper Burdigalian-Lower Langhian sediments of the Venetian molassic basin two vol­caniclastic layers are clearly recognizable, respectively within the Globigerinoides trilobus and Praeorbulina glomerosa zones of Bizon & Bizon (1972). The chemical

Maars to calderas. End-members on a spectrum of explosive volcanic depressions [PDF]

, 2015
We discuss maar-diatremes and calderas as end-members on a spectrum of negative volcanic landforms (depressions) produced by explosive eruptions (note—we focus on calderas formed during explosive eruptions, recognizing that some caldera types are not ...

Progressively Fenitised Schist and Carbonatitic Clasts From a Metasomatic Aureole Beneath the Alkalic Dunedin Volcano, Otago, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Clasts of albite‐porphyroblastic quartzofeldspathic schist, derived from the Otago Schist basement, occur within the Port Chalmers Breccia, a diatreme at the centre of the Dunedin stratovolcano, New Zealand. Schists have undergone varying degrees of replacement reactions (at temperatures of 300° to >500°C) producing hornfelses, with Ca‐ and K‐enriched ...

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...
