Abstract Volcanism in continental rifts, rifted volcanic arcs, and back‐arc basins is fundamentally coupled with crustal extension. However, the precise geometry and timing of the fault systems that facilitate magma transport and accommodate extension remain poorly constrained.

Processes and deposits of submarine sediment density flows within the Moroccan turbidite system, offshore NW Africa [PDF]
Submarine sediment density flows are a major process for transporting sediment from the continental shelf to the deep-ocean. Understanding submarine flow dynamics relies upon analysis of their deposits (beds) because monitoring them directly is difficult.

Submarine deposits from pumiceous pyroclastic density currents traveling over water: An outstanding example from offshore Montserrat (IODP 340) [PDF]
Pyroclastic density currents have been observed to both enter the sea, and to travel over water for tens of kilometers. Here, we identified a 1.2-m-thick, stratified pumice lapilli-ash cored at Site U1396 offshore Montserrat (Integrated Ocean Drilling ...

The magnitude and impact of the Youngest Toba Tuff super-eruption
Super-eruptions, orders of magnitude larger than eruptions experienced in historic times, have devastated wide areas by pyroclastic flows, covered continent-size areas by ash fallout, and injected large quantities of aerosols into the stratosphere ...

Abstract Powder snow avalanches are highly dynamic, multiphase gravity‐driven flows typically composed of a dense basal layer overlain by airborne layers in which snow particles are suspended within a turbulent air phase. Despite extensive work on related systems such as pyroclastic density currents and turbidity currents, all gravity current studies ...

CHAPTER 4.4 Pyroclastic Density Currents
Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are hot mixtures of gases and volcanic rock of diverse size, nature, or density, capable of flowing over long distances at velocities of tens to hundreds of kilometers per hour. They typically originate from the gravitational collapse of explosive eruption columns, lava domes or lava-flow fronts, unstable upper-flank

Substrate deformation by pyroclastic density currents is very sparsely described in the literature. The rare occurrence of syn-depositional substrate deformation suggests that special circumstances are required to transmit shear from the base of a ...
