  1. 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...

  2. Keweenaw Boulder Garden

    27 Apr 2011 | Contributor(s): William I Rose

    http://www.geo.mtu.edu/~raman/SilverI/Boulder_Garden/ Boulder Gardens are selected and arranged groups of boulders, designed for an educational purpose. At Michigan Tech we selected 40 diverse and representative glacial lag boulders which represent the lithology of all of the regional surficial...

  3. PubVolc

    14 Mar 2011 | Contributor(s): Sonja Mae Melander

    http://www.pubvolc.net/ PubVolc provides a new way for all members of the volcanology community to share their published research. PubVolc is free and is available to anyone with access to the internet, allowing poorly-resourced volcanologists to keep up-to-date with the latest volcanology...

  4. 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...

  5. Ash Dispersal Forecast and Civil Aviation Workshop - Consensual Document

    15 Feb 2011 | Contributor(s): Costanza Bonadonna, Arnau Folch

    As a result of the serious consequences of the 2010 Eyjafjallajökull eruption on civil aviation, more than 50 volcanologists, meteorologists, atmospheric dispersion modellers, and space and ground-based monitoring specialists from 12 different countries (including representatives from 6...

  6. 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...

  7. Validation

    27 Sep 2010 | Publications | Contributor(s): Sebastien Dartevelle

    Previous work on the validation of numerical multiphase models for volcanic systems

  8. TITAN2D Tutorial

    04 Aug 2010 | Publications | Contributor(s): E Bruce Pitman, Abani Patra

    This tutorial presents a derivation of the governing equations solved by TITAN2D, and the numerical method employed.

  9. FALL OUT TEPHRA SMULATION FOR FREE

    05 Jan 2015 | Publications | Contributor(s): Jose

    GreetingsComputer code for tephra fallout, even if free, sometimes requires computing and human capabilities not always at hand, specially in countries where this field of research is not quite developedThe attached paper, recently published, seeks to give ideas on how two open source codes could...
