Sedimentology of rock avalanche deposits–Case study and review

A Dufresne, A Bösmeier, C Prager - Earth-Science Reviews, 2016 - Elsevier
Detailed sedimentological studies concerning different facies types and the factors
influencing their development (such as lithology, topography, substrates, etc.) were carried …

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

A Dufresne, TR Davies - Geomorphology, 2009 - Elsevier
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

T Shea, B van Wyk de Vries - Geosphere, 2008 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
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

A Dufresne, GJ Wolken, C Hibert, EK Bessette-Kirton… - Landslides, 2019 - Springer
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

P Grosse, M Danišík, FD Apaza, SR Guzmán… - Bulletin of …, 2022 - Springer
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

AV Zernack, JN Procter - Volcanic debris avalanches: from collapse to …, 2021 - Springer
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 …
