Probabilistic assessment of tephra fall hazards in Japan using a tephra fall distribution database
, 2020 Abstract Tephra falls can disrupt critical infrastructure, including transportation and electricity networks. Probabilistic assessments of tephra fall hazards have been performed using computational techniques, but it is also important to integrate long-term, regional geological records.

Geospatial distribution of tephra fall in Alaska: a geodatabase compilation of published tephra fall occurrences from the Pleistocene to the present [PDF]
, 2018 Tephra fall (volcanic ash) studies are a key component to understanding the frequency and magnitude of volcanic eruptions and conducting volcano-hazard assessments. In addition, many interdisciplinary studies rely on tephra fall deposits as time-stratigraphic markers.

Effects of volcanic and hydrologic processes on forest vegetation: Chaitén Volcano, Chile [PDF]
Andean Geology, 2013 The 2008-2009 eruption of Chaitén Volcano (Chile) involved a variety of volcanic and associated hydrologic processes that damaged nearby forests. These processes included coarse (gravel) and fine (silt to sand) tephra fall, a laterally directed blast ...
