Historical volcanism in the Canary Islands; part 1: A review of precursory and eruptive activity, eruption parameter estimates, and implications for hazard assessment
Despite decadal–millennial repose periods, volcanoes of the Canary Islands pose
significant, though poorly understood hazards to local communities and infrastructure. At …

Westerlies migrations and volcanic records over the past 4000 years from the Azores lacustrine sequences. Exploring correlations and impacts on Western Europe
The Azores region plays a crucial role as a pathway for precipitation fronts traversing the
North Atlantic from west to east, driven by the prevailing westerly winds. Variations in the …

Eruption style, emplacement dynamics and geometry of peralkaline ignimbrites: Insights from the Lajes-Angra Ignimbrite Formation, Terceira Island, Azores
Ignimbrites are relatively uncommon on ocean island volcanoes and yet they constitute a

[HTML][HTML] The recent volcanism of Flores Island (Azores): stratigraphy and eruptive history of Funda Volcanic System
Monogenetic volcanoes occur in many different geotectonic settings and are usually small
and short-lived. They can experience a variety of eruptive styles, even during the same …

Experimental constraints on volcanic ash generation and clast morphometrics in pyroclastic density currents and granular flows
Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are a prominent hazard of volcanic activity; however,
fully quantitative observations are lacking and little direct evidence exists to constrain the …

Fragmentation behavior of young pyroclasts from Mt. Pelée, Martinique
Abstract The stratovolcano Mt. Pelée, Martinique, exhibits eruptive styles ranging from dome
formation to sustained, highly violent explosive activity. Historical eruptions have produced …
