Determination of Primary and Secondary Lahar Flow Paths of the Fuego Volcano (Guatemala) Using Morphometric Parameters

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
On 3 June 2018, a strong eruption of the Fuego volcano in Guatemala produced a dense cloud of 10-km-high volcanic ash and destructive pyroclastic flows that caused nearly 200 deaths and huge economic losses in the region. Subsequently, due to heavy rains,

Volcanological constraints of Archaean tectonics [PDF]

open access: yes
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.

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR)-based mapping of volcanic flows: Manam Island, Papua New Guinea [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2004
We present new radar-based techniques for efficient identification of surface changes generated by lava and pyroclastic flows, and apply these to the 1996 eruption of Manam Volcano, Papua New Guinea.

A comprehensive paleomagnetic study from the last Plinian eruptions of Popocatepetl volcano: absolute chronology of lavas and estimation of emplacement temperatures of PDCs

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2019
Three lava flows (Buenavista, Xalitzintla and Nealtican) and pyroclastic density currents (Lorenzo and Pink Pumice) from two Popocatepetl Plinian eruptions were sampled for paleomagnetic dating.

Field trip to the Ischia resurgent caldera, a journey across an active volcano in the Gulf of Naples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ischia is one of the most impressive examples of post-caldera resurgence in the world, with its almost 1,000 m of uplift in less than 30 ka. This three-days field trip will lead the participants through the geological and volcanological history of the ...

PYROCLASTIC FLOW DYNAMICS

open access: yes, 2006
Numerical simulation of pyroclastic density currents has developed significantly in recent years and is increasingly applied to volcanological research. Results from physical modeling are commonly taken into account in volcanic hazard assessment and in the definition of hazard mitigation strategies. In this work, we modeled pyroclastic density currents

A summary of terminology used in tephra-related studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The word ‘tephra’, derived from a Greek word for ash, is a collective term for all the unconsolidated, primary pyroclastic products of a volcanic eruption.

Improving the facies model for syn-eruptive fluvial successions: lessons from the Chaitén volcano and Blanco river, Chile.

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Sedimentology and Basin Analysis, 2022
Typically, the stratigraphic record of syn-eruptive fluvial successions is a pyroclastic-rich one. It includes an alternation of braided channel deposits and sheet-like floodplain strata, in which the occurrence of paleosols with in situ trees and ...

Debris Flow and Pyroclastic Flow at Unzen Volcano

open access: yesJAPANESE JOURNAL OF MULTIPHASE FLOW, 1993
Unzen Volcano began to erupt in November 1990 after 198 years of dormancy and has remained active. Continuous growth of a lava dome and falls of lava rocks have resulted in frequent pyroclastic flows. Since a great volume of volcanic material has been deposited and scattered by the pyroclastic flows, debris flows have frequently occurred along the ...
