Unique microbial communities in ancient volcanic ash layers within deep marine sediments are structured by the composition of iron phases [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyMuch of the marine sedimentary environment is affected by the deposition of tephra, the explosive products of volcanic eruptions. These tephra layers’ geochemical and physical properties often differ substantially from those of the surrounding sediment ...

First Report of Acanthamoeba Genotype T4 from the Newly Formed Tajogaite Volcano Tephra (La Palma, Canary Islands) [PDF]
PathogensThe Tajogaite Volcano erupted on the western slope of the Cumbre Vieja mountain range on La Palma Island in the Canary Islands, Spain, in 2021. As one of the multiple consequences of this eruption, a layer of tephra was deposited, to a variable extent ...

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 117-131., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Drivers of crop impacts from tephra fallout
Volcanica, 2022 Agriculture is an economic and social pillar for the least developed countries. When these regions host volcanoes that exhibit explosive behaviour, a serious risk for agricultural production arises as crops endure various impacts from tephra fall.

Creating a digital database of tephra fallout distribution and frequency in Japan
Journal of Applied Volcanology, 2022 Tephra fallout is a potential hazard to livelihoods, critical infrastructure, and health, even in areas that are far from volcanoes. Therefore, it is important to quantitatively evaluate tephra fall hazards for both residents and infrastructure around ...

Real-Time Tephra Detection and Dispersal Forecasting by a Ground-Based Weather Radar
Remote Sensing, 2021 Tephra plumes can cause a significant hazard for surrounding towns, infrastructure, and air traffic. The current work presents the use of a small and compact X-band multi-parameter (X-MP) radar for the remote tephra detection and tracking of two eruptive
