Fall-units and Refractive Index Fluctuations of Eniwa-a Tephra Glass, Hokkaido, Japan
恵庭aテフラ(En-a,17ka BP)の火山ガラス屈折率は,試料採取地点によって異なることがある.その原因は,En-aはフォールユニットごとに火山ガラス屈折率が異なるからである.石狩低地帯南部では,En-aに少なくとも3つのフォールユニットが認められる.火山ガラス屈折率は,上位フォールユニットで高い値(n=1.510-1.514),中~下位フォールユニットで低い値(n=1.505-1.510)を示す.また,単一のフォールユニット内であっても,火山ガラス屈折率は層準によって若干異なる.なお,斜方輝石屈折率については,最下位層準でやや高い値(γ=1.713-1.716)を示すほかは,全層準を通じてほぼ一定の値(γ=1.710-1.715)であった.これまで,火山学やテフロクロノロジーの分野では ...

Mechanism of Volcanic Tephra Falling Detected by X-Band Multi-Parameter Radar
The present study shows the possibility of using X-band multi-parameter radar to detect volcanic tephra for estimating the amount of volcanic tephra in the air even when the amount of volcanic tephra is very low. The model proposed in this study can detect tephra with diameters of 0.5 mm to 3 mm.

Residential Buildings and Occupant Vulnerability to Tephra Fall
Plinian and subplinian volcanic eruptions can be accompanied by tephra falls which may last hours or days, posing threats to people, buildings and economic activity. Numerous historical examples exist of tephra damage and tephra casualties.

The 1991 explosive eruption of Hudson volcano in Chile ejected about 2.7 km³ (DRE) of basalt and trachyandesite magma as tephra fall. A majority of the fallout occurred from an eruption during the period August 12-15, 1991, producing an extensive deposit
