The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Multi-model comparison of the volcanic sulfate deposition from the 1815 eruption of Mt. Tambora [PDF]
The eruption of Mt. Tambora in 1815 was the largest volcanic eruption of the past 500 years. The eruption had significant climatic impacts, leading to the 1816 year without a summer, and remains a valuable event from which to understand the climatic ...

Impact of the Hunga Tonga volcanic eruption on stratospheric composition. [PDF]
Significance The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai (HTHH) volcanic eruption on 15 January 2022 is unprecedented in the modern era in both the amount of water vapor injected into the stratosphere and the depth of penetration.

Explosive-effusive volcanic eruption transitions caused by sintering. [PDF]
Explosive volcanic eruptions become effusive, or end, when the vent becomes plugged with sintered pyroclastic material. Silicic volcanic activity has long been framed as either violently explosive or gently effusive.

Global Propagation of Ionospheric Disturbances Associated With the 2022 Tonga Volcanic Eruption
In this study, we use measurements from over 4,735 globally distributed Global Navigation Satellite System receivers to track the progression of traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) associated with the 15 January 2022 Hunga Tonga‐Hunga Ha'apai ...

The Hunga Tonga‐Hunga Ha'apai (HTHH) volcanic eruption in January 2022 injected unprecedented amounts of water vapor (H2O) and a moderate amount of the aerosol precursor sulfur dioxide (SO2) into the Southern Hemisphere (SH) tropical stratosphere.

January 2022 witnessed the violent eruption of Hunga Tonga–Hunga Haʻapai submarine volcano in the South Pacific. With a volcanic explosivity index possibly equivalent to VEI 5, this represents the largest seaborne eruption for nearly one and a half ...

Controls on explosive-effusive volcanic eruption styles. [PDF]
One of the biggest challenges in volcanic hazard assessment is to understand how and why eruptive style changes within the same eruptive period or even from one eruption to the next at a given volcano.
