A sequence of a plinian eruption preceded by dome destruction at Kelud volcano, Indonesia, on February 13, 2014, revealed from tephra fallout and pyroclastic density current deposits

Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2017
A plinian-style eruption with a radially spreading umbrella cloud occurred on February 13, 2014, at Kelud volcano, Indonesia. We present the sequence of this plinian event based on a geological survey of the eruption products and analysis of satellite ...

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 Sciences
Explosive 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.

Timber-framed building damage from tephra fall and lahar: 2015 Calbuco eruption, Chile

Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2019
Assessing the damage to buildings from volcanic eruptions is an important aspect of volcanic risk assessment and management. However, there is a limited empirical evidence base to draw upon when describing the relation between volcanic hazard intensity ...

The interpretative value of transformed tephra sequences

Journal of Quaternary Science, 2019
We explore developments in tephra science that consider more than chronology, using case studies of morphological transformations of tephra deposits.

Zircon of Triassic Age in the Stuttgart Formation (Schilfsandstein)—Witness of Tephra Fallout in the Central European Basin and New Constraints on the Mid-Carnian Episode

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Carnian Stuttgart-Formation (Schilfsandstein) of the Central European Basin contains relics of Triassic volcanic detritus in form of euhedral zircon grains and authigenic analcime.

Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

Boreas, EarlyView.
The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

Thermal Influence of Volcanic Tephra on Maximum Soil Temperatures: Geoecological Implications for Germination and Distribution of Argyroxiphium sandwicense (Haleakalā, Maui, Hawai’i)

Geographies
Mid-day maximum soil temperatures were measured at 10 study plots during different hot summer days in Haleakalā Crater, Maui, with thermocouple thermometers on five adjacent microsite types: bare surface soils, soils under black tephra, soils under ...

Impact of supraglacial deposits of tephra from Grímsvötn volcano, Iceland, on glacier ablation

Journal of Glaciology, 2016
Supraglacial deposits are known for their influence on glacier ablation. The magnitude of this influence depends on the thickness and the type of the deposited material.

Refining the timing of Middle Pleistocene (MIS 12 to MIS 6) ice advances into northern central Europe: sedimentological analysis and single‐grain luminescence dating of glaciotectonic complexes and tunnel‐valley fills

Boreas, EarlyView.
We summarize the current state of knowledge on the age of the Middle Pleistocene ice advances into northern central Europe and provide 25 new single‐grain feldspar luminescence ages of Elsterian and Saalian glacigenic sediments to constrain the age of the ice advances and their tentative correlation with marine isotope stages/substages.

Direct and indirect luminescence dating of tephra: A review

Journal of Quaternary Science, 2019
In Quaternary studies, tephras are widely used as marker horizons to correlate geological deposits. Therefore, accurate and precise dating is crucial.
