This review focuses on the recognition of volcanic ash occurrences in marine sediment
cores and on using their appearance and properties to deduce their origin. Widespread …

Abstract The Fucino Basin, central Italy, with its long and continuous history of Quaternary
sediment accumulation, is one of the richest Mediterranean Middle Pleistocene tephra …

Sea-level change is thought to influence the frequencies of volcanic eruptions on glacial to
interglacial timescales. However, the underlying physical processes and their importance …

The Late Bronze Age Thera eruption was one of the largest natural disasters witnessed in
human history. Its impact, consequences, and timing have dominated the discourse of …

We use the tephrostratigraphic framework along the Aegean Volcanic Arc established in
Part 1 of this contribution to determine hemipelagic sedimentation rates, calculate new …

Decades of research have focused on establishing the exact year and climatic impact of the
Minoan eruption of Thera, Greece (c. 1680 to 1500 BCE). Ice cores offer key evidence to …

The reconstruction of millennial-scale interactions between ecosystems and societies can
provide unique and valuable references for understanding the creation of cultural …

Throughout the long eruption history of the Santorini volcano, the Cape Riva/Y-2 and
Minoan/Z-2 eruptions had a profound impact on the environment. The Minoan eruptions also …

Accurately reconstructing the scale and timing of dynamic processes, such as Middle-Late
Pleistocene explosive volcanism and rapid climatic changes, requires rigorous and …

Abstract The South Aegean Volcanic Arc overlies a slowly subducting, cool slab of oceanic-
to-transitional crust, and hosts the hazardous Christiana–Santorini–Kolumbo volcanic field …
