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.

Atmosphere, 2021 Ground-based remote sensing equipment have the potential to be used for the nowcasting of the tephra hazard from volcanic eruptions. To do so raw data from the equipment first need to be accurately transformed to tephra-related physical quantities.

Modulation of glacier ablation by tephra coverage from Eyjafjallajökull and Grímsvötn volcanoes, Iceland: an automated field experiment [PDF]
Earth System Science Data, 2018 We report results from a field experiment investigating the influence of volcanic tephra coverage on glacier ablation. These influences are known to be significantly different from those of moraine debris on glaciers due to the contrasting grain size ...

Laboratory tests to understand tephra sliding behaviour on roofs
Journal of Applied Volcanology, 2023 Following explosive eruptions, loading from tephra fall deposits can lead to roof collapse. However, the load may be reduced significantly by tephra sliding on pitched roofs. We present small-scale laboratory tests to investigate tephra sliding behaviour

A quantitative x-ray diffraction inventory of volcaniclastic inputs into the marine sediment archives off Iceland: a contribution to the Volcanoes in the Arctic System programme [PDF]
Polar Research, 2013 This paper re-evaluates how well quantitative x-ray diffraction (qXRD) can be used as an exploratory method of the weight percentage (wt%) of volcaniclastic sediment, and to identify tephra events in marine cores.

Applied Sciences, 2020 The focus of this study was the Baekdusan-Kita 1 (B-KY1) eruption during the late Middle Pleistocene. We identified B-KY1 tephra between the Toya and Aso-1 tephras in the ODP 794A core from the Japan Basin of the East Sea/Japan Sea.

Journal of Applied Volcanology, 2022 Tephra fall can lead to significant additional loading on roofs. Understanding the relevant geomechanical properties of tephra is critical when assessing the vulnerability of buildings to tephra fall and designing buildings to withstand tephra loads ...

Coastal dunes of Urup Island (Kuril Islands, North-Western Pacific): palaeoclimatic and environmental archive [PDF]
Геосистемы переходных зон, 2022 The Late Holocene phases of aeolian processes have been reconstructed on the basis of dune fields construction. The palaeoenvironmental studies were targeted to following problems: 1) to determine the periods of higher and lower activity of aeolian ...

La Tephra de Bag: une retombée volcanique à large dispersion dans le loess pléistocène d'Europe centrale [PDF]
Eiszeitalter und Gegenwart, 1991 Mehrere Eigenschaften (Korngröße, Mineralspektrum, chemische Zusammensetzung von Gesamtproben und von Klinopyroxenen) einer Tephralage, die in sieben Lößprofilen von Ungarn und der Tschechoslovakei vorkommt, wurden untersucht. Die Tephra ist identisch in
