Low-degree mantle melting controls the deep seismicity and explosive volcanism of the Gakkel Ridge
Nature Communications, 2022 Joint implementation of seismic tomography and numerical thermo-mechanical modeling sheds light to the causes of explosive submarine volcanic eruptions on the Gakkel Ridge and deeply penetrating seismicity down to 25 km depth.

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023 Voluminous pumice rafts produced by the 2021 phreatomagmatic eruption of Fukutoku-Oka-no-Ba, a submarine volcano located in the Izu-Bonin Islands, reached many Japanese ports and islands, damaging fisheries and hindering marine traffic and trade.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 The dating of young submarine volcanic eruptions, with their potential generation of tsunamigenic waves, is essential for a reliable hazard assessment. This is particularly relevant in highly populated coastal areas.

Discovery of the Largest Historic Silicic Submarine Eruption [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2014 It was likely twice the size of the renowned Mount St. Helens eruption of 1980 and perhaps more than 10 times bigger than the more recent 2010 Eyjafjallajökull eruption in Iceland. However, unlike those two events, which dominated world news headlines, in 2012 the daylong submarine silicic eruption at Havre volcano in the Kermadec Arc, New Zealand ...

Explosive Submarine Eruptions: The Role of Condensable Gas Jets in Underwater Eruptions
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2021 AbstractIn explosive submarine eruptions, volcanic jets transport fragmented tephra and exsolved gases from the conduit into the water column. Upon eruption the volcanic jet mixes with seawater and rapidly cools. This mixing and associated heat transfer ultimately determines whether steam present in the jet will completely condense or rise to breach ...

Degassing history of water, sulfur, and carbon in submarine lavas from Kilauea volcano, Hawaii [PDF]
, 1991 Major, minor, and dissolved volatile element concentrations were measured in tholeiitic glasses from the submarine portion (Puna Ridge) of the east rift zone of Kilauea Volcano, Hawaii.

Numerical modelling of mud volcanoes and their flows using constraints from the Gulf of Cadiz [PDF]
, 2003 It is estimated that the total number of submarine mud volcanoes is between 1000 and 100 000. Because many are associated with greenhouse gases, such as methane, it is argued that the global flux of these gases to the atmosphere from the world’s ...

Sea-floor tectonics and submarine hydrothermal systems [PDF]
, 2005 The discovery of metal-depositing hot springs on the sea floor, and especially their link to chemosynthetic life, was among the most compelling and significant scientific advances of the twentieth century. More than 300 sites of hydrothermal activity and

Glass in the submarine section of the HSDP2 drill core, Hilo, Hawaii [PDF]
, 2004 The Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project recovered ~3 km of basalt by coring into the flank of Mauna Kea volcano at Hilo, Hawaii. Rocks recovered from deeper than ~1 km were deposited below sea level and contain considerable fresh glass. We report electron
