A Unifying Model for Pyroclastic Surge Genesis and Pyroclastic Flow Fluidization

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
AbstractPyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are hot and fast ground‐hugging mixtures of volcanic fragments and gases, which represent a major threat to people living near explosive volcanoes. Mechanisms causing the separation into the concentrated (the pyroclastic flow) and dilute (the pyroclastic surge) layers, as well as the mechanism causing their ...

Fluid Outflows From Venus Impact Craters: Analysis From Magellan Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Many impact craters on Venus have unusual outflow features originating in or under the continuous ejecta blankets and continuing downhill into the surrounding terrain. These features clearly resulted from flow of low-viscosity fluids, but the identity of

Abrasion in pyroclastic flows [PDF]

open access: yesGeologische Rundschau, 1992
The relative size of glass rims coating crystals in the matrix ash provides a semi-quantitative measure of abrasion of ash grains in pyroclastic flows. Median abrasion indices (= areacrystal / areaglass rim) are 8.4 to 18.5 in Laacher See pyroclastic flow units but only 4 to 6.3 in assocciated fallout, showing stronger abrasion of ash particles in the ...

A Confidence-Based Assessment Method for Distinguishing Pyroclastic Density Current Deposits From Other Volcaniclastic Units

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are a destructive volcanic hazard. Quantifying the types, frequency and magnitudes of PDC events is essential for effective risk management, but since historical records at best extend a few hundred years this usually ...

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.

Tracking Pyroclastic Flows at Soufrière Hills Volcano [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2009
Explosive volcanic eruptions typically show a huge column of ash and debris ejected into the stratosphere, crackling with lightning. Yet equally hazardous are the fast moving avalanches of hot gas and rock that can rush down the volcano's flanks at speeds approaching 280 kilometers per hour. Called pyroclastic flows, these surges can reach temperatures

Interpretation of Bouguer Anomaly to Determine Fault and Subsurface Structure at Blawan-ijen Geothermal Area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Gravity survey has been acquired by Gravimeter Lacoste & Romberg G-1035 at Blawan-Ijen geothermal area. It was a focusing study from previous research.

A pyroclastic flow deposit on Venus [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Society, London, Special Publications, 2013
Abstract Explosive volcanism on Venus is severely inhibited by its high atmospheric pressure and lack of water. This paper shows that a deposit located near 16°S, 145°E, here referred to as Scathach Fluctus, displays a number of morphological characteristics consistent with a pyroclastic flow deposit.

Identification pyroclastic flow of magnetic minerals (Holocene volcano): A case study of paleo-volcano Lawu on the south side, Central Java, Indonesia

open access: yesKuwait Journal of Science, 2023
Indonesia is surrounded by three tectonic plates: the Eurasian, Indo−Australian, and Pacific plates. The plates have caused Indonesia to have many volcanoes, both active and inactive, resting, or no longer active.

Legacy of pre‐eruption vegetation affects ground‐dwelling arthropod communities after different types of volcanic disturbance

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Volcanic eruptions are one of the largest natural disturbances and are followed by the establishment of novel plant and animal communities in terrestrial ecosystems.
