Pressurization of Shallow Magma Reservoir Preceding Basaltic Eruptions at an Open‐Vent Volcano
Abstract Open‐vent volcanoes are characterized by the persistent activity of outgassing, lava effusion and mild explosions, which is, however, occasionally interrupted by more violent explosive activity (paroxysm), for example, Stromboli (Italy). In spite of the different (two orders of magnitude) explosive intensities and different petrological magma ...
