Resilience and plant growth forms 40 years after a volcanic disturbance
Abstract Resilience represents a critical concept in ecology; yet, quantitative assessment of resilience in response to disturbance is rare, even for widely recognized growth forms. Plant groups based on deciduousness, clonality, morphology, and Raunkiaer life form could predict inertia to major disturbances and subsequent resilience.

Farmers’ perceptions of options for pasture remediation and recovery following major tephra fall in New Zealand [PDF]
Many regions around the world have farms surrounding potentially active volcanoes that have been dormant for decades to centuries. Without any recent experience, a new major eruption and tephra fall would present an unfamiliar soil and pasture ...

Validation of the FALL3D model for the 2008 Chaitén eruption using field and satellite data
The 2008 Chaitén Volcano eruption began on 2 May 2008 with an explosive phase that injected large amounts of tephra into the atmosphere. During the first week of the eruption, volcanic ash clouds were transported for hundreds of kilometres over Argentina

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

A volcanic tephra fall hazard evacuation decision support tool for Taranaki dairy livestock using probabilistic modelling [PDF]
The dairy industry is one of New Zealand’s leading economic drivers, contributing $18.1 billion in export revenue in the 2013/14 financial year. However, past experiences have demonstrated that dairy livestock are vulnerable to the e↵ects of volcanic ...

Arc-to-craton: Devonian air-fall tephras in the eastern United States [PDF]
ABSTRACT More than 100 air-fall volcanic tephra beds are currently documented from Devonian strata in the eastern United States. These beds act as key sources of various geological data. These include within-basin to basin-to-basin correlation, globally useful geochronologic age dates, and a relatively detailed, if incomplete, record of ...

Nishinoshima is a volcanic island in the Ogasawara Arc that has exhibited intermittent activity since 2013, including four major eruptive episodes: 2013–2015 (Episode 1), 2017 (Episode 2), 2018 (Episode 3), and 2019–2020 (Episode 4). Previous studies reported a change in eruption style—from a Strombolian eruption with lava flows (Episode 1 to the early
