Thin-skinned mass-wasting responsible for widespread deformation at Arenal volcano
*Correspondence: Susanna K. Ebmeier and Juliet Biggs, COMET, School of Earth Sciences, University of Bristol, Will’s Memorial Building, Queen’s Road, BS8 1RJ, Bristol,UK e-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] The shape and stability of a volcano’s edifice depends on the relationship between eruption rate and the loss or redistribution of material due to erosion, mass-wasti...
متن کاملThin‐skinned deformation of sedimentary rocks in Valles Marineris, Mars
[1] Deformation of sedimentary rocks is widespread within Valles Marineris, characterized by both plastic and brittle deformation identified in Candor, Melas, and Ius Chasmata. We identified four deformation styles using HiRISE and CTX images: kilometer‐scale convolute folds, detached slabs, folded strata, and pull‐apart structures. Convolute folds are detached rounded slabs of material with al...
متن کاملRelative seismic velocity variations correlate with deformation at Kīlauea volcano
Seismic noise interferometry allows the continuous and real-time measurement of relative seismic velocity through a volcanic edifice. Because seismic velocity is sensitive to the pressurization state of the system, this method is an exciting new monitoring tool at active volcanoes. Despite the potential of this tool, no studies have yet comprehensively compared velocity to other geophysical obs...
متن کاملVolcano Deformation Monitoring Using GPS
Volcanic eruptions are often very destructive events, having a massive impact on the natural and human environment. In order to mitigate the effect of volcanic hazards such as pyroclastic flows, lahars and tsunamis it is necessary to closely monitor volcanoes. Ground surface deformation is recognised as a reliable indicator of an impending eruption and can give clues to magmatic processes at de...
متن کاملNew Constraints on Source Processes of Volcanic Tremor at Arenal Volcano, Costa Rica, Using Broadband Seismic Data
Broadband seismic data recorded 2.3 km from the active vent of Arenal Volcano, Costa Rica, provide new constraints on tremor source processes. Arenal's tremor contains as many as seven harmonics, whose frequencies vary temporally by up to 75 percent, from initial values of 1.9 Hz for the first peak immediately following explosive eruptions to 3.2-3.5 Hz several minutes later. We infer that gas ...
