Large‐Scale Topographic Changes at Erupting Volcanoes Measured by the TanDEM‐X Digital Change Map
Abstract Volcanic eruptions cause large‐scale topographic changes, through the emplacement of lava flows and lava domes, the formation of craters and calderas, and thick ash and pyroclastic deposits. Here we analyze the TanDEM‐X Digital Change Map (DCM), which compares the DEM produced during 2010–2015 with satellite acquisitions collected in 2016–2022.

Maturation of Silicate Weathering Pathways Revealed by Germanium‐Silicon Ratios
Abstract We document the evolution of fresh basalt subject to roughly a decade of chemical weathering through systematic temporal shifts in aqueous germanium‐silicon ratios (Ge/Si) in a unique set of meso‐scale artificial hillslopes. Elevated dissolved Ge/Si signatures relative to bedrock in this young system are associated with formation of high‐Si ...

Tephra hazard assessment at Mt. Etna (Italy) [PDF]
Abstract. In this paper we present a probabilistic hazard assessment for tephra fallout at Mt. Etna (Italy) associated with both short- and long-lived eruptions. We analyzed wind data from the atmospheric soundings of the Italian Air Force at Trapani Birgi (western Sicily), and use the TEPHRA advection-diffusion-sedimentation model to capture the ...

Unravelling upbuilding pedogenesis in tephra and loess sequences in New Zealand using tephrochronology [PDF]
The genesis of soils developed in either tephra or loess on stable sites differs markedly from that of soils developed on rock because classical topdown processes operate in conjuction with geological processes whereby material is added to the land ...

Seismic Evidence for Widespread Active Magmatism in Eastern Marie Byrd Land, Antarctica
Abstract Marie Byrd Land is a volcanically active province that overlaps with the Amundsen Sea Embayment, a region of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet that is experiencing particularly rapid ice mass loss. We locate 34 previously undetected seismic events (ML 1.2–3.2) and identify 251 additional similar events from 2019 to 2024 in eastern Marie Byrd Land ...

The interpretative value of transformed tephra sequences [PDF]
ABSTRACTWe explore developments in tephra science that consider more than chronology, using case studies of morphological transformations of tephra deposits. Volcanic processes and prevailing weather conditions determine the distribution of tephra deposits immediately after an eruption, but as these freshly fallen tephra become part of the ...

Once despised now desired: innovative land use and management of multilayered Pumice Soils in the Taupo and Galatea areas, central North Island, New Zealand [PDF]
The tour brings together innovative land use change and management associated with dairy farming, and land-based effluent disposal, on weakly weathered and multi-layered, glass-rich, Pumice Soils (Vitrands) in the Taupo and Galatea areas.
