Connecting with tephras: principles, functioning, and applications of tephrochronology in Quaternary science [PDF]
Tephrochronology is a unique method for linking and dating geological, palaeoecological, palaeoclimatic, or archaeological sequences or events. The method relies firstly on stratigraphy and the law of superposition, which apply in any study that connects

Temporal and spatial evolution of a waxing then waning catastrophic density current revealed by chemical mapping [PDF]
We reconstruct the behavior of a catastrophic sustained radial pyroclastic density current as it waxed then waned during its brief lifespan. By subdividing the deposit into 8 time slices using a chemical tracer, we show that the sustained current ...

DensityX: A program for calculating the densities of magmatic liquids up to 1,627 °C and 30 kbar
Here we present a standalone program, DensityX, to calculate the densities of hydrous silicate melts (1,000s of samples in a single model run) given pressures, temperatures, and major oxide compositions in wt% in the 10-component system SiO2-TiO2-Al2O3 ...

An ashy septingentenarian: the Kaharoa tephra turns 700 (with notes on its volcanological, archaeological, and historical importance) [PDF]
Most of us are aware of the basaltic Tarawera eruption on 10th June 1886: the high toll on life (~120 people), landscape devastation, and loss of the Pink and White Terraces.

The Problems of Volcanology [PDF]
Of the various sciences represented in the American Geophysical Union that of volcanology is perhaps the most complex and has probably most points of contact with the other geophysical sciences. This complexity and variety in the problems presented by the study of volcanoes arises, in part, from the fact that they are, as has been well said, “natural ...

Impact vesiculation – a new trigger for volcanic bubble growth and degassing [PDF]
We highlight a potentially important trigger for bubble growth and degassing in volcanic bombs. We have successfully triggered bubble growth in previously unvesiculated samples of silicate melt during experiments to simulate volcanic bomb impact, by ...

Volcanology and morphology [PDF]
Apollo 15 photographs of the southern parts of Serenitatis and Imbrium were used for a study of the morphology and distribution of wrinkle ridges. Volcanic and structural features along the south margin of Serenitatis were also studied, including the ...
