Remote 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

DOWNFLOW code and LIDAR technology for lava flow analysis and hazard assessment at Mount Etna
Annals of Geophysics, 2011 The use of a lava-flow simulation (DOWNFLOW) probabilistic code and airborne light detection and ranging (LIDAR) technology are combined to analyze the emplacement of compound lava flow fields at Mount Etna (Sicily, Italy).

Erosion versus construction: The origin of Venusian channels [PDF]
Lava channels are a common feature in the volcanic regions of the Moon, and have now been observed on Venus. There has been much debate about the origin of lunar channels as to whether they are the result of erosional (either thermal or mechanical) or ...

Spatiotemporal Modeling of Lava Dome Evolution of Mt. Mayon during its 2023 Eruption using Remote Sensing Data [PDF]
ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information SciencesNumerous lava dome construction and destruction processes were observed during the 2023 Mayon Volcano activity from 08 June until 08 December. Studying the lava dome development cycle of active volcanoes similar to Mayon Volcano is crucial because ...

The 1984 Mauna Loa eruption and planetary geolgoy [PDF]
In planetary geology, lava flows on the Moon and Mars are commonly treated as relatively simple systems. Some of the complexities of actual lava flows are illustrated using the main flow system of the 1984 Mauna Loa eruption. The outline, brief narrative,

Toward a model for leveed lava flows [PDF]
Many lava flows have two distinct volumetric components during emplacement. First, there is a component actively flowing in accordance with Newtonian or other constitutive relations.

Studies of fluid instabilities in flows of lava and debris [PDF]
At least two instabilities have been identified and utilized in lava flow studies: surface folding and gravity instability. Both lead to the development of regularly spaced structures on the surfaces of lava flows. The geometry of surface folds have been

Relative ages of lava flows at Alba Patera, Mars [PDF]
Many large lava flows on the flanks of Alba Patera are astonishing in their volume and length. As a suite, these flows suggest tremendously voluminous and sustained eruptions, and provide dimensional boundary conditions typically a factor of 100 larger ...
