Volcaniclastic sediments, broadly defined as clastic deposits derived from the transport,
deposition and/or redeposition of the products of volcanic activity, have long been a …

Abstract Three-dimensional (3D) seismic and outcrop data are used to review the
significance of submarine slide blocks and associated soft-sediment deformation structures …

Mass-transport deposits (MTDs) are gravity-induced units that represent an important
component of modern and ancient deep-water stratigraphic successions. MTDs have been …

The 1995–present eruption of Soufrière Hills Volcano on Montserrat has produced over a
cubic kilometre of andesitic magma, creating a series of lava domes that were successively …

Density muon radiography is a new method to determine the average density of geological
bodies by measuring the attenuation produced by rocks on the flux of cosmic muons. We …

We study the possibility of muon radiography as a tool to investigate space and time
changes in the internal density distribution inside geological structures. Previous work has …

Quantitative estimates of sediment flux and the global cycling of sediments from hillslopes to
rivers, estuaries, deltas, continental shelves, and deep-sea basins have a long research …

Background Scientists monitoring active volcanoes are increasingly required to provide
decision support to civil authorities during periods of unrest. As the extent and resolution of …

Catastrophic collapses of the flanks of stratovolcanoes constitute a major hazard threatening
numerous lives in many countries. Although many such collapses occurred following the …

The present study documents a high tsunami hazard in the Caribbean region, with several
thousands of lives lost in tsunamis and associated earthquakes since the XIXth century …
