Determination of the largest clasts of tephra deposits for the characterization of explosive volcanic eruptions: report of the IAVCEI Commission on Tephra Hazard Modelling
27 Jul 2011 | Contributor(s): Costanza Bonadonna, simona scollo, Raffaello Cioni, Laura Pioli, Marco Pistolesi
This report summarizes the results of the field workshop of the IAVCEI Commission on Tephra Hazard Modelling that was carried out in Salcedo, Ecuador (January 16-18, 2006) with the main objective of assessing the best way to characterize the largest clasts of tephra deposits. Defining the largest...

Large Scale Experiments on Volcanic Processes (EOS)
19 Jul 2011 | Contributor(s): Greg A Valentine
Some of the least understood and most hazardous geologic processes involve complex multiphase flows, particularly those related to explosive volcanic eruptions. These phenomena inherently involve a wide range of characteristic length and time scales, as well as processes that are coupled across...

Ash Dispersal Forecast and Civil Aviation Workshop - Model Benchmark Document
15 Feb 2011 | Contributor(s): Costanza Bonadonna, Arnau Folch
One of the main objectives of the IAVCEI-WMO Ash dispersal forecast and civil aviation workshop was to investigate the variability of existing Volcanic Ash Transport and Dispersal Models (VATDM) in order to identify new improved strategies of dispersal forecasting, e.g. probability/ensemble...

Assessing the link between mantle source and sub-volcanic plumbing in the petrology of basalts from the 2001 and 2002/2003 eruptions of Mount Etna, Sicily: Evidence from geochemical and helium isotope data
31 Dec 2010 | Contributor(s): Ian M. Coulson
The 2001 and 2002-2003 flank eruptions of Mt. Etna consisted of near continuous explosive activity and sporadic lava flows. Previous studies have suggested that distinct magmas were simultaneously tapped by fissures in different parts of the volcano, indicating a complex plumbing system. From...
