Electrical resistivity tomography revealing the internal structure of monogenetic volcanoes
04 Sep 2013 | Contributor(s):: Stephanie Barde-Cabusson, Xavier Bolos, Dario Pedrazzi, Raul Lovera, Guillem Serra, Joan Marti, Albert Casas
Eruptive activity of individual monogenetic volcanoes usually lasts a few days or weeks. However, their short lifetime does not always mean that their dynamics andstructure are simple. Monogenetic cones construction is rarely witnessed from the beginning to the end, and conditions for observing...

GEODYNAMIC CONSTRAINTS OF CANARIAN VOLCANISM
04 Sep 2013 | Contributor(s):: Joan Marti, Adelina Geyer Traver
Barcelona Workshop 2013 The intimate relationship between tectonism and magmatism is evident in all volcanic environments, where magma production, magma ascent rate, loci of volcanic activity, and the style of volcanic activity, are directly dependent on the regional/local tectonic...
