Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.Abstract Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are gravity currents that frequently form during explosive volcanic eruptions. These ground‐hugging density currents consist of high‐temperature mixtures of pyroclasts (e.g., ash, pumice), lithics, and gas.

Volcanic Ash Affected by Lightning During the Hunga 2022 Eruption
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.Abstract The 15 January 2022 eruption of Hunga volcano (Kingdom of Tonga) produced the most lightning ever documented during an explosive eruption to date. This study estimates the mass of erupted tephra that may be structurally or electromagnetically affected by the lightning, based upon lightning peak current, channel length, and ash plume particle ...

A Ground-based Search for Lunar Resources Using High-resolution Imaging in the Infrared [PDF]
When humans return to the Moon, lunar resources will play an important role in the successful deployment and maintenance of the lunar base. Previous studies have illustrated the abundance of resource materials available on the surface of the Moon, as ...

Estimating Lunar Pyroclastic Deposit Depth from Imaging Radar Data: Applications to Lunar Resource Assessment [PDF]
Lunar pyroclastic deposits represent one of the primary anticipated sources of raw materials for future human settlements. These deposits are fine-grained volcanic debris layers produced by explosive volcanism contemporaneous with the early stage of mare

A study of stability analysis of pyroclastic covers based on electrical resistivity measurements
, 2012 Usually, the degree of stability of a slope is quantified by the Factor of Safety whose values depend on physical and mechanical soil properties analyzed on samples of much reduced sizes or referring to very small soil volumes around porous probes.

Dynamics of pyroclastic density currents : : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Earth Sciences at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2016 Listed in 2016 Dean's List of Exceptional ThesesPyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are the most dangerous mass flows on Earth. Yet they remain poorly understood because internal measurements and observations are hitherto non-existent.

Volcanological constraints of Archaean tectonics [PDF]
Volcanological and trace element geochemical data can be integrated to place some constraints upon the size, character and evolutionary history of Archean volcanic plumbing, and hence indirectly, Archean tectonics.
