The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Promoting Geoheritage Through a Field Based Geo-education Event, a Case Study of the Hungarian Geotope Day in the Bükk Region Geopark [PDF]
Within the integrated network of protected geosites in nature conservation areas, nature trails have been established in Hungary since 1990. These trails play a major role in the organization of field-based geo-education activities. The Hungarian Geotope

Revisiting the statistical analysis of pyroclast density and porosity data [PDF]
Explosive volcanic eruptions are commonly characterized based on a thorough analysis of the generated deposits. Amongst other characteristics in physical volcanology, density and porosity of juvenile clasts are some of the most frequently used to ...

Facies architecture and volcanological aspects of silicic rocks from the Palmas plateau, Brazil
The nature of the extensive silicic units of the Paraná Igneous Province is still heavily debated. The silicic rocks that outcrop in the Palmas plateau (Southwestern Parana State) show aphyric texture and TiO2 < 0.86%, being classified as Palmas-type ...

Physical volcanological study of the Rungwe volcanic province, Tanzania [PDF]
Many potentially hazardous volcanoes in low-income countries have not been studied and are not regularly monitored. This thesis presents a first step towards detailed hazard and risk assessment for the Rungwe Volcanic Province (RVP) in Tanzania. The volcano-tectonic architecture of the RVP reveals a strong control of tectonic activity over the location
