Igneous centres across the Taranaki Peninsula represent the southwestern limit of arc volcanism associated with the Tonga–Kermadec–Hikurangi subduction system. Taranaki Maunga, the youngest and largest of three andesitic stratovolcanoes, dominates the geomorphology of the Taranaki Peninsula along with the eroded remnants of the Kaitake and Pouakai ...

Fault-controlled magma pathways driving seismicity and eruption risk in Eastern Turkey
Many oceanic and some continental transform faults host coupled tectonic shear and magmatism, complicating seismic and volcanic hazards. Here we integrate high-resolution seismic tomography and three-dimensional finite-element modelling to investigate ...

Evolution of Summit Magma Pressure During the 2018 Caldera Collapse at Kīlauea Volcano
Abstract We utilized geodetic data from the 16 May to 4 August 2018 caldera collapse sequence to refine the geometries and pressure evolution of two summit reservoirs at Kīlauea volcano: the shallower Halema‘uma‘u (HMM) and deeper South Caldera (SC) reservoirs.

Tectonics on Early Earth Driven by Earth's Changing Shape During Tidal Recession of the Moon
Abstract Few fragments of Earth's earliest crust have survived, and so this formative period of our planet's history is shrouded in mystery. To leverage the limited data available, it is important to understand all the processes that could have shaped our young planet.

Lava production at Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat: 1995-2009 [PDF]
[1] We estimate that about 1 km3 of andesitic lava has been produced at Soufrière Hills Volcano, Montserrat from 1995 to 2009. There were three major episodes of extrusion, each lasting about 2 to 3.5 years and producing about 280 to 340 M m3 of lava ...

Trace element compositional trends in zircons separated from single hand samples have been used to infer dynamic processes in magma reservoirs. Here, we compile published zircon trace element chemistry to quantify any systematic difference between the ...

Abstract Hydrothermal sealing is a mechanism thought to be responsible for challenging‐to‐forecast phreatic and phreatomagmatic eruptions. To better understand this process, we present a study in which we assessed the textural, mineralogical, and physical properties (porosity, permeability, and tensile strength) of blocks of hydrothermal seal that were

A constant influx model for dike propagation : implications for magma reservoir dynamics [PDF]
International audienceMost observations of seismicity rate during dike propagation on basaltic volcanoes show (1) rate stationarity despite possible variations of the dike tip velocity, (2) frequent lack of clear and monotonic hypocenter migration ...

Abstract Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) backscatter has particular advantages for monitoring the progression of effusive eruptions. It does not rely on cloud‐free or daytime satellite acquisitions and is particularly sensitive to surface roughness and local slope changes, providing complementary information to other sensors.

The architecture of magma plumbing systems plays a fundamental role in volcano eruption and evolution. However, the precise configuration of crustal magma reservoirs and conduits responsible for supplying eruptions are difficult to explore across most ...
