Variability in the Gas Composition of the Popocatépetl Volcanic Plume

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2019
Long term time series of volcanic plumes composition constitute valuable indicators of the evolution of the magmatic and volcanic systems. We present here a 4 years long time series of molecular ratios of HF/HCl, HCl/SO2 , SiF4 /SO2 , HF/SiF4 measured in

Seismic Data, Photographic Images and Physical Modeling of Volcanic Plumes as a Tool for Monitoring the Activity of Nevado del Ruiz Volcano, Colombia

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2018
Quantification of volcanic plume parameters is a fundamental task to characterize the behavior of an active volcano. The volcanic plume mass, flow rate and ash injection were determined from seismic data, in addition to photographic images and ...

Plume-SPH 1.0: a three-dimensional, dusty-gas volcanic plume model based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2018
Plume-SPH provides the first particle-based simulation of volcanic plumes. Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) has several advantages over currently used mesh-based methods in modeling of multiphase free boundary flows like volcanic plumes.

Measurement of three dimensional volcanic plume properties using multiple ground based infrared cameras

open access: yesIsprs Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, 2019
This study presents a method and a proof of principle system for the direct measurement of volcanic plume 3-D spatial properties. The shape of a plume is reconstructed in three dimensions using multi-view imagery collected from static ground-based ...

Electrical Charging of Volcanic Plumes

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2008
Many explosive terrestrial volcanic eruptions are accompanied by lightning and other atmospheric electrical phenomena. The plumes produced generate large perturbations in the surface atmospheric electric potential gradient and high charge densities have been measured on falling volcanic ash particles.

SO2 depletion in tropospheric volcanic plumes [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2004
Ground based remote sensing techniques are used to measure volcanic SO2 fluxes in efforts to characterise volcanic activity. As these measurements are made several km from source there is the potential for in‐plume chemical transformation of SO2 to sulphate aerosol (conversion rates are dependent on meteorological conditions), complicating ...

Quantifying the Effect of Wind on Volcanic Plumes: Implications for Plume Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2023
AbstractThe considerable effects that wind can have on estimates of mass eruption rates (MERs) in explosive eruptions based on volcanic plume height are well known but difficult to quantify rigorously. Many explicitly wind‐affected plume models have the additional difficulty that they require the use of centerline heights of bent‐over plumes, a ...

Evaluating the structure and magnitude of the ash plume during the initial phase of the 2010 Eyjafjallajökull eruption using lidar observations and NAME simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland erupted explosively on 14 April 2010, emitting a plume of ash into the atmosphere. The ash was transported from Iceland toward Europe where mostly cloud-free skies allowed ground-based lidars at Chilbolton in ...

First In Situ Observations of Gaseous Volcanic Plume Electrification

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2019
Volcanic plumes become electrically charged, often producing spectacular displays of lightning. Previous research has focused on understanding volcanic lightning, primarily the large electric fields produced by charging of ash particles.

Atmospheric chemistry in volcanic plumes [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010
Recent field observations have shown that the atmospheric plumes of quiescently degassing volcanoes are chemically very active, pointing to the role of chemical cycles involving halogen species and heterogeneous reactions on aerosol particles that have previously been unexplored for this type of volcanic plumes.
