The evolution of volcanic systems following sector collapse
SFL Watt - Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2019 - Elsevier
Sector collapses affect volcanic edifices across all tectonic settings and involve a rapid
redistribution of mass, comparable in scale to the largest magmatic eruptions. The eruptive …

Longitudinal ridges in mass movement deposits
Prominent longitudinal features are often reported on the surfaces of mass movement
deposits. However, the genesis and implications of these have not hitherto been considered …

Structural analysis and analogue modeling of the kinematics and dynamics of rockslide avalanches
We present a structural analysis of subaerial natural and analogue rockslide avalanches.
Such deposits often have well-developed faults, folds, and hummocks. These structures can …

Granular flow experiments on the interaction with stationary runout path materials and comparison to rock avalanche events
A Dufresne - Earth surface processes and landforms, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
The central focus of this work is to study the processes acting well below the surface of a
moving rock or debris avalanche during travel over stationary substrate material. Small …

The 2016 Lamplugh rock avalanche, Alaska: deposit structures and emplacement dynamics
Supraglacial landslides result from the catastrophic failure of periglacial rock slopes and
deposit large volumes of rock and ice onto the glacier surface. The most remarkable features …

Insights into rock avalanche emplacement processes from detailed morpho‐lithological studies of the Tschirgant deposit (Tyrol, Austria)
A Dufresne, C Prager… - Earth Surface Processes …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Large, rapid rockslope failures generate deposits with complex morphologies due to a
number of causal and influencing factors. To investigate these, we conducted a detailed …

Holocene collapse of Socompa volcano and pre-and post-collapse growth rates constrained by multi-system geochronology
Volcano sector collapses are catastrophic events that can mobilize huge volumes of material
and cause changes in the magmatic plumbing system, leading to variations in growth rate …

Lateral edifice collapse and volcanic debris avalanches: A post-1980 Mount St. Helens perspective
L Siebert, ME Reid - Bulletin of Volcanology, 2023 - Springer
Abstract The 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens was instrumental in advancing
understanding of how volcanoes work. Lateral edifice collapses and the generation of …

Cyclic growth and destruction of volcanoes
Large-scale edifice failure is a common process during the long lifespans of volcanoes
worldwide with many experiencing repeated collapse. Here we use six well-studied …
