A thermodynamical model for rainfall-triggered volcanic dome collapse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Dome-forming volcanic eruptions typically involve the slow extrusion of viscous lava onto a steep-sided volcano punctuated by collapse and the generation of hazardous pyroclastic flows.

Satellite Geodesy Reveals Shallow, Transient Magma Intrusions at Sotará Volcano, Colombia

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Sotará is a little‐known andesitic‐dacitic stratovolcano in southwestern Colombia. Although there are no recorded historical eruptions, the volcano shows clear evidence of geothermal activity, deformation, and volcano‐tectonic seismicity. Its remote location and rugged terrain pose challenges for access and routine monitoring.

Shallow volcanic earthquakes in the Owakudani geothermal area, Hakone volcano, Japan

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Hakone volcano, located in central Japan, produced a small phreatic eruption in June 2015. Although seismic activity in the Hakone region is generally low, the area experiences episodic earthquake swarms approximately once every few years. In the volcano,

Renewed Explosive Phreatomagmatic Activity at Poás Volcano, Costa Rica in April 2017

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2018
Phreatic and phreatomagmatic eruptions at volcanoes often present no short term precursory activity, making them a challenge to forecast. Poás volcano, Costa Rica, exhibits cyclic activity with phreatic and some phreatomagmatic eruptions separated by ...

Transition from magmatic to phreatomagmatic eruptions in Young Ciremai volcano, Indonesia: insights from stratigraphy, componentry, and textural analysis of tephra deposits

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Vulcanian eruptions, characterized by intermediate magma compositions, pose significant hazards due to their potential for both magmatic and phreatomagmatic fragmentation.

Stratigraphy and lithosedimentological properties of subplinian eruptions from Mt. Taranaki, New Zealand, encompassed by the Ngaere and Pungarehu edifice collapses

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 722-746, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The sudden removal of large portions of a volcanic edifice through collapse can cause depressurisation in the subvolcanic magmatic system, influencing the nature of subsequent eruptions. At Mt. Taranaki, edifice failure has occurred frequently and at different timescales throughout the volcanic history, forming a broad pattern of cyclic ...

Consequences of volcano sector collapse on magmatic storage zones: insights from numerical modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceMajor volcano flank collapses strongly affect the underlying magmatic plumbing system. Here, we consider the magma storage zone as a liquid pocket embedded in an elastic medium, and we perform numerical simulations in two ...

Tectonics, geology and origins of Te Riu‐a‐Māui / Zealandia

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 531-567, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Te Riu‐a‐Māui / Zealandia is a 95% submerged, five million square km southern hemisphere continent that includes the islands of New Zealand and New Caledonia. For the last 45 million years (Ma) Zealandia has been cut by the Pacific‐Australian plate boundary which today changes character from a west‐dipping subduction zone in the north to ...

Laboratory studies of volcanic jets [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The study of the fluid dynamics of violent volcanic eruptions by laboratory experiment is described, and the important fluid-dynamic processes that can be examined in laboratory models are discussed in detail.

Experimental constraints on phreatic eruption processes at Whakaari (White Island volcano)

open access: yesJournal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2015
AbstractVigorous hydrothermal activity interspersed by sequences of phreatic and phreatomagmatic eruptions occur at Whakaari (White Island volcano), New Zealand. Here, we investigate the influence of sample type (hydrothermally altered cemented ash tuffs and unconsolidated ash/lapilli) and fragmentation mechanism (steam flashing versus gas expansion ...
