Long-runout pyroclastic density currents: Analysis and implications
Abstract Pyroclastic density currents are hazardous, ground-hugging, hot mixtures of gas and solid particles produced by volcanoes. Currents generated by the largest explosive eruptions have traveled distances on the order of 100 km, and their devastating impact has repeatedly marked Earth's geologic history.

Patterns of deposition from experimental turbidity currents with reversing buoyancy [PDF]
Turbidity currents are turbulent, sediment-laden gravity currents which can be generated in relatively shallow shelf settings and travel downslope before spreading out across deep-water abyssal plains.

Experimental study of dense pyroclastic density currents using sustained, gas-fluidized granular flows [PDF]
International audienceWe present the results of laboratory experiments on the behaviour of sustained, dense granular flows in a horizontal flume, in which high-gas pore pressure was maintained throughout the flow duration by continuous injection of gas ...
