  1. Tephra inversion with Tephra2 and the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm

    21 Jun 2020 | Contributor(s): Qingyuan Yang, E Bruce Pitman, Marcus I Bursik, Susanna Jenkins

    We couple the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm (Hastings, 1970) with the volcanic ash transport model Tephra2 (Bonadonna et al, 2005; 2010), and present the coupled algorithm as a new method to estimate the Eruption Source Parameters (ESPs) of volcanic eruptions based on mass per unit area...

  2. Tephra isopach, extent and volume calculation in R

    04 Mar 2016 | Contributor(s): Qingyuan Yang, Marcus I Bursik

    The method presented here is used to interpolate the thickness distribution of tephra fall deposits from point measurements. It first reconstructs the general thickness decay pattern, or "trend," and then models the residuals that cannot be explained by the trend with...

  3. Tephra2

    20 Apr 2010 | *Tools | Contributor(s): Costanza Bonadonna, Laura Connor, Chuck B Connor, Leah Michelle Courtland

    Tephra2 uses the advection diffusion equation to forecast tephra dispersion in a given location based on a user-defined set of eruptive conditions.

  7. TephraProb: a Matlab package for probabilistic hazard assessments of tephra fallout

    15 Sep 2016 | Offline Tools | Contributor(s): Sebastien Biass, Costanza Bonadonna, Laura J Connor, Chuck B Connor

    Download the code on GitHub: https://github.com/e5k/TephraProbFollow updates on: https://e5k.github.io/TephraProb is a toolbox of Matlab functions designed to produce scenario–based probabilistic hazard assessments for ground tephra accumulation. The toolbox includes a series of...

  8. TOTGS: Total grainsize distribution of tephra fallout

    20 Jan 2014 | Offline Tools | Contributor(s): Seb Biass, Costanza Bonadonna

    NOTE The code is now maintained on GitHub: https://github.com/e5k/TOTGS Follow updates on: https://e5k.github.io/  Quantifying the total grainsize distribution (TGSD) is a necessary step to achieve a thorough characterization of a given tephra deposit. Several methods exist to...

  9. Uncertainty Workshop: Deadline Approaching

    Coupling Uncertain Geophysical Hazards WorkshopMarch 24-26, 2019James B. Hunt Library, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NCDescription: Scientists are beginning to understand the propagation of uncertainty through mathematical models, to enable predictions of the likely...

  10. Volcanic clouds observed by the A-Train satellite constellation

    12 Mar 2012 | *Data Sets/Collections | Contributor(s): Simon Carn

    A collection of images showing volcanic eruption clouds detected by NASA's A-Train satellite constellation, which includes the Aqua, CALIPSO, CloudSat and Aura satellites. These examples demonstrate the unique ability of the A-Train to provide coincident, multi-spectral, active and passive remote...

  12. Volcanic Record Completeness Workshop - IAVCEI, Portland, August 13 2017

    01 Sep 2017 | Workshops | Contributor(s): Susanna Jenkins, Mark Bebbington

    The purpose of the workshop was to explore issues around what makes volcanic records incomplete, how to detect incompleteness, and how to deal with incompleteness when estimating hazard. A good number of early career researchers were encouraged to attend, supported by a grant from the...
