The Formation of Submarine Baruna Komba Ridge on Northeast Flores Waters in Relation to Low Anomaly of Marine Magnetism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
There are three submarine ridges found on northeast of Flores waters. One of them is Baruna Komba submarine ridge found on south of Komba (Batutara) Volcano.

The seafloor record of explosive submarine volcanic eruptions

open access: yes
Abstract Underwater density currents triggered by marine volcanic eruptions threaten island communities and infrastructure, while their deposits provide potential archives of past major eruptions. Despite their significance, a scarcity of real-time observations and sampling of resultant deposits limits our understanding of the behaviour of such

BATHYMETRIC SOUNDING by REMOTE SENSING Using ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Tsunami Hazards, 2016
We describe a novel modus operandi to survey the ocean floor. We utilize the eruption of submarine volcanoes as a light source. The electromagnetic radiation emitted by such eruptions illuminate the ocean floor and thus provides information about the ...

Monitoring El Hierro submarine volcanic eruption events with a submarine seismic array

open access: yes, 2013
A submarine volcanic eruption took place near the southernmost emerged land of the El Hierro Island (Canary Islands, Spain), from October 2011 to February 2012. The Instituto Geografico Nacional (IGN) seismic stations network evidenced seismic unrest since July 2012 and was a reference also to follow the evolution of the seismic activity associated ...

Physical Modeling of Tsunamis Generated by Submarine Volcanic Eruptions

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans
AbstractSubmarine volcanic eruptions can induce major local and regional tsunami hazards through varied source mechanisms. Large‐scale experiments of tsunamis generated by submarine volcanic eruptions are conducted to study the cylindrical wave generation and propagation in a three‐dimensional wave basin.

VOLCANIC TSUNAMI GENERATING SOURCE MECHANISMS IN THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN REGION [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Tsunami Hazards, 2004
Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, volcanic island flank failures and underwater slides have generated numerous destructive tsunamis in the Caribbean region.

Large‐Scale Submarine Sediment Waves at Macauley Caldera Volcano: In Situ Evidence of High‐Flux, Syn‐Eruptive Submarine Transport

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Two sediment cores were collected from a submarine sediment wave field on the flank of Macauley volcano. Combined with seismic reflection surveys and numerical modeling, we present an integrated model of the formation of large‐scale, eruption‐fed ...
