Counterfactual Analysis of Runaway Volcanic Explosions

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2019
“Few, beside the student of such phenomena, will be able to realize what would have resulted from a more concentrated liberation of the accumulating energy if, for instance, instead of being separated into moderate earth movements and gas emissions ...

Ionospheric Disturbances During the 4 December 2015, Mt. Etna Eruption

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract This study presents the detection and characterization of co‐volcanic ionospheric disturbances (CVIDs) associated with Mt. Etna's large‐scale lava fountain (Italy). Leveraging a dense and proximal GNSS network, we identify local Total Electron Content (TEC) perturbations extending up to ∼ ${\sim} $200 km south/southwest of the vent.

The color systematics of volcanic ashfall samples in estimating eruption sequences: a case study of the 2017–2018 eruption at Shinmoe-dake, Kirishima volcano, Southwest Japan

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
The color of pyroclasts is fundamental, because it reflects various magma properties and eruption processes, including particle morphology, chemistry, and petrological characteristics.

Ceboruco hazard map: part I - definition of hazard scenarios based on the eruptive history

open access: yesJournal of Applied Volcanology, 2019
Of the 48 volcanoes in Mexico listed as potentially active by the National Center for Disaster Prevention (CENAPRED), Ceboruco, located in the western Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt, is considered among the 5 most hazardous.

Common processes at unique volcanoes – a volcanological conundrum

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2014
An emerging challenge in modern volcanology is the apparent contradiction between the perception that every volcano is unique, and classification systems based on commonalities among volcano morphology and eruptive style.

Enhanced Continental Weathering Contributed to the Termination of the Middle Miocene Climatic Optimum

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 17, 16 September 2025.
Abstract The Middle Miocene Climatic Optimum (MMCO, ca. 17.0 to 14.7 million years (Myr) ago) is a period of global warming that could be relevant to future projections for 2100 AD. However, the mechanism of atmospheric CO2 removal during this interval, particularly, whether silicate weathering is critically involved, is currently unclear.

Transition from magmatic to phreatomagmatic eruptions in Young Ciremai volcano, Indonesia: insights from stratigraphy, componentry, and textural analysis of tephra deposits

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
Vulcanian eruptions, characterized by intermediate magma compositions, pose significant hazards due to their potential for both magmatic and phreatomagmatic fragmentation.

Investigations of the Sinus Aestuum DMD: An Anomalously Large and Compositionally Distinct Lunar Pyroclastic Deposit

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.
Abstract The Sinus Aestuum (SA) dark mantle deposit (DMD) is a regional pyroclastic deposit on the central lunar near‐side. Spectra from the SA DMD are anomalous when compared to other DMDs and have been interpreted to represent a high abundance of the mineral spinel. The SA spinels are compositionally distinct compared to other lunar spinels and their

Deformation and Gravitational Instability at Anak Krakatau (Sunda Strait, Indonesia): Insights From Direct Shear Experiments and Finite‐Element Models

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Volcanic edifices are known to be unstable and their collapses have been observed several times in history. A collapse of island or coastal volcanoes is especially hazardous for the population living on regional shorelines due to the generation of destructive tsunami waves.

Seismic Wavefield Change Preceding the Eruption of Shinmoe‐Dake, Kirishima Volcano, Japan, Inferred From Polarization Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract A volcanic tremor is a seismic event linked to volcanic processes, identified by ongoing ground shaking. They play a crucial role in understanding internal volcanic activities and forecasting eruptions. Detecting weak volcanic tremor signals before an eruption has remained a difficult task.
