Volcanically induced glacier collapses in southern Jan Mayen (Sør‐Jan), Norway

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
A formerly unknown glacier totally covered with tephra was found in an area of Jan Mayen where no Holocene glaciation was known. This glacier and three others in the same area melted abruptly creating jökulhlaups due to volcanic activity impacting the glacier catchments at different times in the Holocene.

Single-Station Seismo-Acoustic Monitoring of Nyiragongo's Lava Lake Activity (D.R. Congo)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2018
Since its last effusive eruption in 2002, Nyiragongo has been an open-vent volcano characterized by the world's largest persistent lava lake. This lava lake provides a unique opportunity to detect pressure change in the magmatic system by analyzing its ...

Ribbed moraines formed during deglaciation of the Icelandic Ice Sheet: implications for ice‐stream dynamics

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
This study focuses on the deglaciation dynamics in the northeastern sector of the Iceland Ice Sheet, by investigating transverse ridges, together with glacifluvial and ice‐marginal landforms. The main emphasis is on the transverse ridges, which are primarily interpreted as ribbed moraines – the first to be described in Iceland.

Impact of Environmental Factors on the Spectral Characteristics of Lava Surfaces: Field Spectrometry of Basaltic Lava Flows on Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2015
We report on spectral reflectance measurements of basaltic lava flows on Tenerife Island, Spain. Lava flow surfaces of different ages, surface roughness and elevations were systematically measured using a field spectroradiometer operating in the range of

Widespread occurrence of lava lakes on Io observed from Juno [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
We report recent observations of lava lakes within patera on Io made by the JIRAM imager/spectrometer on board the Juno spacecraft, taken during close observation occurred in the extended mission. At least 40 lava lakes have been identified from JIRAM observations.

Lateglacial and Holocene glacier variations in an active volcanic area, northern Jan Mayen (Nord‐Jan), Norway

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Glacier evolution and environmental changes in the northern Jan‐Mayen from the early deglaciation and well into the Holocene are discussed. Results are based on a large chronological dataset (TCN and radiocarbon dates), integrated with field data on glacial landforms and sediments, including the use of GPR.
