Attempt to Model Lava Flow Faster Than Real Time: An Example of La Palma Using VolcFlow [PDF]

open access: goldGeoHazards, 2022
The eruption of Cumbre Vieja (also known as Tajogaite volcano, 19 September–13 December 2021, Spain) is an example of successful emergency management.

Assessing impending hazards from summit eruptions: the new probabilistic map for lava flow inundation at Mt. Etna [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The development of probabilistic maps associated with lava flow inundation is essential to assess hazard in open vent volcanoes, especially those that have highly urbanized flanks.

Lava flow crises in inhabited areas part I: lessons learned and research gaps related to effusive, basaltic eruptions [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Applied Volcanology, 2020
Lava flows have threatened and/or inundated inhabited areas and/or their supporting networks 38 times at 12 volcanoes in the past 70 years. A systematic evaluation of these events has not been undertaken, making it hard to compare eruptions, create lava ...

Emplacing a Cooling-Limited Rhyolite Lava Flow: Similarities with Basaltic Lava Flows [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2017
Accurate forecasts of lava flow length rely on estimates of eruption and magma properties and, potentially more challengingly, on an understanding of the relative influence of characteristics such as the apparent viscosity, the yield strength of the flow

Local adaptation does not lead to genome‐wide differentiation in lava flow lizards [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Adaptation can occur with or without genome‐wide differentiation. If adaptive loci are linked to traits involved in reproductive isolation, genome‐wide divergence is likely, and speciation is possible.

Lava effusion in mountainous terrain generates flow backup and excess inundation [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Most volcanic eruptions occur in high-relief terrains, however the impact of mountainous topography on lava emplacement is poorly constrained. Here we use analogue materials (syrup, glycerol) to investigate lava effusion where changes in channel width ...

Catastrophic lava flow levee failure: precursors, processes, and implications

open access: diamondVolcanica
During an effusive eruption crisis the initial advance of a lava flow is typically the primary focus of model forecasts and hazard management efforts. Flow branching and lateral expansion of lava flows can pose significant dangers within evolving flow ...

Lava flow hazard map of Piton de la Fournaise volcano [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2021
Piton de la Fournaise, situated on La Réunion island (France), is one of the most active hot spot basaltic shield volcanoes worldwide, experiencing at least two eruptions per year since the establishment of the volcanological observatory in 1979 ...

Lava flow hazard at Fogo Volcano, Cabo Verde, before and after the 2014–2015 eruption [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2016
Lava flow simulations help to better understand volcanic hazards and may assist emergency preparedness at active volcanoes. We demonstrate that at Fogo Volcano, Cabo Verde, such simulations can explain the 2014–2015 lava flow crisis and therefore ...

Lava Flow Roughness on the 2014–2015 Lava Flow-Field at Holuhraun, Iceland, Derived from Airborne LiDAR and Photogrammetry

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
Roughness can be used to characterize the morphologies of a lava flow. It can be used to identify lava flow features, provide insight into eruption conditions, and link roughness pattern across a lava flow to emplacement conditions. In this study, we use
