The theoretical basis for textural indices of eruption dynamics: review and new conceptual models
The textural indices of eruption products (pumice, scoria and lavas), number density of crystals or bubbles, or characteristics of their size distributions, have been proposed to estimate dynamic properties such as magma ascent rates, on the basis of ...

Role of mechanical erosion in controlling the effusion rate of basaltic eruptions
In many basaltic eruptions, observations show that the effusion rate of magma has a typical dependence on time: the effusion rate curves show first a period of increasing and later a decreasing phase by a maximum value. We present a model to explain this

When people think of molten rock, they automatically think of volcanic eruption and lava flow, but that is only the tail end of magmatic systems. Molten rock begins underground as magma, and its properties determine whether or not the system will end in ...

The Neapolitan Yellow Tuff, the product of the largest known trachytic phreatoplinian eruption, gives a good opportunity to investigate the filling mechanisms and internal dynamics of a trachytic magma chamber.

The shallow magma chamber of Stromboli Volcano (Italy)
In this work, we integrate artificial and natural seismic sources data to obtain high‐resolution images of the shallow inner structure of Stromboli Volcano. Overall, we used a total of 21,953 P readings from an active seismic experiment and an additional

Heat diffusion and size reduction of a spherical magma chamber
An analytical solution is derived for the size reduction of a spherical magma chamber cooling by conduction. The use of moving boundary conditions and the constraint of a spherical symmetry allow one to ignore the details of the heat redistribution ...

Magma Chamber Rejuvenation: Insights from Numerical Models
Most volcanic systems on Earth are characterized by chemically different magmas that can be found in the erupted products throughout their history. The reasons are multiple, including variations in the mantle source and/or crustal assimilation, as well ...

Igneous Layering in Basaltic Magma Chambers
Layering is a common feature in mafic and ultramafic layered intrusions and generally consists of a succession of layers characterized by contrasted mineral modes and/or mineral textures, including grain size and orientation and, locally, changing mineral compositions.

The Campi Flegrei (Campanian Region, Italy) experienced two cataclysmic caldera-forming eruptions which produced the Campanian Ignimbrite (39 ka, CI) and the Neapolitan Yellow Tuff (15 ka, NYT).
