An analytical model for gas overpressure in slug-driven explosions:insights into Strombolian volcanic eruptions [PDF]
Strombolian eruptions, common at basaltic volcanoes, are mildly explosive events that are driven by a large bubble of magmatic gas (a slug) rising up the conduit and bursting at the surface.

An Endogenic Origin for Titan's Rampart Craters: Assessment of Explosion Mechanisms
Abstract Rampart craters are a class of lakes or depressions in Titan's north polar region that have morphological attributes suggestive of an explosive origin. Two previous studies have proposed that rampart craters form via nitrogen or methane vapor explosions analogous to terrestrial maar explosions.

Two‐phase magma flow with phase exchange: Part II. 1.5D numerical simulations of a volcanic conduit
Abstract In a review paper in this same volume, we present the state of the art on modeling of compressible viscous flows ranging from single‐phase to two‐phase systems. It focuses on mathematical properties related to weak stability because they are important for numerical resolution and on the homogenization process that leads from a microscopic ...

Large tectonic earthquakes induce sharp temporary decreases in seismic velocity in Volcán de Colima, Mexico [PDF]
International audienceWe used the ambient noise cross-correlation and stretching methods to calculate variations in seismic velocities in the region of Volcán de Colima, Mexico. More than 15 years of continuous records were processed, producing long time

Coupled subdaily and multiweek cycles during the lava dome erupt of Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat [PDF]
Observations of volcanoes extruding andesitic lava to produce lava domes often reveal cyclic behaviour. At Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat, cycles with sub-daily and multi-week periods have been recognised on many occasions.

Probabilistic analysis of rockfall frequencies during an andesite lava dome eruption:The Soufrière Hills Volcano, Montserrat [PDF]
A probabilistic analysis of rockfalls has been undertaken using seismometer-determined information on the timing and duration of rockfalls from the Soufrière Hills lava dome, Montserrat, between 1995 and 1997.

Blast waves from violent explosive activity at Yasur Volcano, Vanuatu [PDF]
Infrasonic and seismic waveforms were collected during violent strombolian activity at Yasur Volcano (Vanuatu). Averaging similar to 3000 seismic events showed stable waveforms, evidencing a low-frequency (0.1-0.3Hz) signal preceding similar to 5-6s the ...

Experiments on the Gas Dynamics of the Mt. St. Helens 1980 Lateral Blast [PDF]
Field evidence suggests that the lateral blast in the 1980 Mt. St. Helens eruption behaved like an underexpanded jet flow. We conduct two experiments to investigate this hypothesis. In our first experiment, we use the compressible flow--shallow-water
