Estimating the mass of tephra accumulated on roads to best manage the impact of volcanic eruptions: the example of Mt Etna, Italy [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System SciencesExplosive eruptions release significant quantities of tephra, which can spread and settle on the ground, potentially leading to various types of damage and disruption to public infrastructure, including road networks.
