We modelled the transport and deposition of ash from the June 2011 eruption from Cordón
Caulle volcanic complex, Chile. The modelling strategy, currently under development at the …

During operational ash-cloud forecasting, prediction of ash concentration and total erupted
mass directly depends on the determination of mass eruption rate (MER), which is typically …

Regardless of the recent advances in geophysical monitoring and real-time quantitative
observations of explosive volcanic eruptions, the characterization of tephra deposits remains …

We address, through quantitative analysis of results from independent studies, the control of
the discharge rate of explosive volcanic eruptions on the runout distance of highly …

The maximum height reached by a turbulent plume rising in a stratified environment is a key
tool to estimate the flux released at its source, particularly for large‐scale flows because flux …

We present experimental measurements conducted on freely propagating, turbulent, steady
thermal air plumes. Three plumes are studied with differing source conditions, ranging from …

The occurrence of particle aggregation has a dramatic effect on the transport and
sedimentation of volcanic ash. The aggregation process is complex and can occur under …

It is increasingly recognized that the gravitational stability of explosive eruption columns is
governed by complex ash-pumice-gas (multiphase) interactions as well as the mechanics of …

During April–May 2010 volcanic ash clouds from the Icelandic Eyjafjallajökull volcano
reached Europe causing an unprecedented disruption of the EUR/NAT region airspace …

Catastrophic, caldera-forming explosive eruptions generate hazardous ash fall, pyroclastic
density currents and, in some cases, tsunamis, yet their dynamics are still poorly understood …
