Large Scale Experiments on Volcanic Processes (EOS)

19 Jul 2011 | Publications | Contributor(s): Greg A Valentine

Some of the least understood and most hazardous geologic processes involve complex multiphase flows, particularly those related to explosive volcanic eruptions. These phenomena inherently involve a wide range of characteristic length and time scales, as well as processes that are coupled across...

Mapping a 49 year old eruption of a basaltic cone: Pacaya Guatemala

27 Apr 2011 | Presentations | Contributor(s): William I Rose

This presentation summarizes the 50 year eruption and the 3 dimensional map produced. The map, prepared as part of an MS thesis by Ruben Otoniel Matias Gomez, is under review as a Map and Chart Series publication by the GSA. The lecture summarizes the situation at Pacaya, and uses Matias' map as...
