On the use of plume models to estimate the flux in volcanic gas plumes
Monitoring the flux of gas from volcanoes is a fundamental component of volcano monitoring programs and is used as a basis for eruption forecasting. Here, the authors present a new method using video images of volcanic gas plumes to measure the speed of ...

Investigation of chlorine radical chemistry in the Eyjafjallajkull volcanic plume using observed depletions in non-methane hydrocarbons [PDF]
As part of the effort to understand volcanic plume composition and chemistry during the eruption of the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajkull, the CARIBIC atmospheric observatory was deployed for three special science flights aboard a Lufthansa passenger ...

Visible and invisible volcanic plumes [PDF]
Volcanic plumes, discharging from craters or fumaroles, are usually observed at active volcanoes. These plumes are divided into two categories from their appearance; one is a transparent invisible plume, composed of volcanic gases, and the other is a white, visible plume, containing water droplets in addition to the vapors.

Image analysis of volcanic plumes: A simple calibration tool to correct for the effect of wind
Video cameras provide vital information on volcanic plumes from explosive eruptions, such as plume height, for monitoring and research. These images must be calibrated to get accurate quantitative data.

Lidar sounding of volcanic plumes [PDF]
ABSTRACT Accurate knowledge of gas composition in volcanic plumes has high scientific and societal value. On the one hand, it gives information on the geophysical processes taking place inside volcanos; on the other hand, it provides alert on possible eruptions. For this reasons, it has been suggested to monitor volcanic plumes by lidar. In particular,

Karymsky volcano eruptive plume properties based on MISR multi-angle imagery and the volcanological implications [PDF]
Space-based operational instruments are in unique positions to monitor volcanic activity globally, especially in remote locations or where suborbital observing conditions are hazardous.

ASHEE: a compressible, equilibrium-Eulerian model for volcanic ash plumes [PDF]
A new fluid-dynamic model is developed to numerically simulate the non-equilibrium dynamics of polydisperse gas-particle mixtures forming volcanic plumes. Starting from the three-dimensional N-phase Eulerian transport equations for a mixture of gases and

Sedimentation from strong volcanic plumes [PDF]
We develop descriptions of the key processes influencing tephra dispersal from strong volcanic plumes. These are characterized by the development of a subvertical eruption column in the atmosphere that forms a spreading current at a level of neutral buoyancy.
