Abstract It is difficult to forecast phreatic eruptions because they are often characterised by an abrupt onset at shallow depths beneath volcanoes. Here we show that temporal changes in the tilt, tremor, and horizontal electric field have occurred repeatedly near vent of a small eruption Iwo-Yama, Kirishima Volcanic Complex, Japan. Such geophysical were observed 13 times, with one these events...

The uppermost section of the Hunter Mine group (HMG) (2728 Ma), a bimodal volcanic complex in the Abitibi greenstone belt, contains both oxide and carbonate facies banded iron-formation (BIF). This paper explores the relationship between volcanic activity and the development of the two types of iron-formation. The oxide facies, represented by chert-jasper-magnetite iron-formation is widespread ...

Surface transportation networks are critical infrastructure that are frequently affected by volcanic ash fall. Disruption to surface transportation from volcanic ash is often complex with the severity of impacts influenced by a vast array of parameters including, among others, ash properties such as particle size and deposit thickness, meteorological conditions, pavement characteristics, and mi...
