Volcanism is one of the main mechanisms transferring mass and energy between the
interior of the Earth and the Earth's surface. However, the global mass flux of lava, volcanic …

Eruptive column models are powerful tools for investigating the transport of volcanic gas and
ash, reconstructing past explosive eruptions, and simulating future hazards. However, the …

Abstract The Instituto Geofísico (IG-EPN) was created in 1983 by faculty of the Escuela
Politécnica Nacional, a public university in Quito, Ecuador, with the objective of assessing …

Gas‐and‐ash explosions at the Santiaguito dome complex, Guatemala, commonly occur
through arcuate fractures, following a 5‐to 6‐min period of inflation observed in long‐period …

This paper provides an example of how communities can adapt to extreme forms of
environmental change and uncertainty over the longer term. We analyse the interactions …

Paroxysmal activity represents an end-member in the common range of activity at mafic arc
volcanoes, characterised by rapid transitions across the effusive-explosive interface and …

For the people that live around many of the world's volcanos, the effects of eruptive activity
on livelihoods and wellbeing are seldom experienced as a one-off event. Not only do …

How do lava domes release volcanic gases? Studying this problem is crucial to understand,
and potentially anticipate, the generation of the sudden and dangerous explosive eruptions …

The monitoring of the frequency, intensity/magnitude and dynamics of explosive events at
volcanoes in a state of unrest is key to surveying and forecasting their activity. Thermal and …

Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) are among the most hazardous of all volcanic processes
in terms of high speeds and unpredictable extent. While concentrated PDCs are usually …
