Vog: Using Volcanic Eruptions to Estimate the Health Costs of Particulates
The Economic Journal, EarlyView., 2018 The negative consequences of long‐term exposure to particulate pollution are well established but a number of studies find no effect of short‐term exposure on health outcomes. The high correlation of industrial pollutants complicates the estimation of the impact of individual pollutants on health.

Phosphate Scavenging During Lava‐Seawater Interaction Offshore of Kīlauea Volcano, Hawaii
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 The 2018, subaerial eruption of Kīlauea volcano, Hawaii, resulted in a 5‐km‐long stretch of coastline that actively drained lava into the ocean. Nutrients were added to the surrounding ocean through the dissolution of basaltic rock and thermal upwelling ...

Common processes at unique volcanoes – a volcanological conundrum
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2014 An emerging challenge in modern volcanology is the apparent contradiction between the perception that every volcano is unique, and classification systems based on commonalities among volcano morphology and eruptive style.

GIScience & Remote Sensing, 2023 Lava flows from volcanoes can significantly destroy infrastructure, although they rarely threaten human life. Mapping lava flows is essential to managing the volcanic hazard during eruptions and understanding significant changes in geomorphology after ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Explosive eruptions at basaltic volcanoes remain poorly understood. Kīlauea Volcano is a type locality for basaltic eruptions and is well-known for effusive activity.

Compositional boundary layers trigger liquid unmixing in a basaltic crystal mush
Nature Communications, 2019 This study seeks to tackle the question of why intermediate magmatic rock compositions are poorly represented on the Earth’s surface. The authors do so by tracking the evolution of the physical behaviour of immiscible Fe-rich liquids within a sample ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023 On 20 December 2020, after more than 2 years of quiescence at Kīlauea Volcano, Hawaiʻi, renewed volcanic activity in the summit crater caused boiling of the water lake over a period of ∼90 min. The resulting water‐rich, electrified plume rose to 11–13 km

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2018 The origin of rejuvenated volcanism on mantle plume related oceanic islands remains controversial. One commonly cited model is decompressional melting related to plate flexure from the rapid loading of the lithosphere by the formation of a shield volcano

Lava fountain jet noise during the 2018 eruption of fissure 8 of Kīlauea volcano
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Real-time monitoring is crucial to assess hazards and mitigate risks of sustained volcanic eruptions that last hours to months or more. Sustained eruptions have been shown to produce a low frequency (infrasonic) form of jet noise.
