Quantifying probabilities of volcanic events: the example of volcanic hazard at Mount Vesuvius
TL;DR: An event tree scheme to quantitatively estimate both long- and short-term volcanic hazard is described, based on a Bayesian approach, that produces a probability estimation of any possible event in which it is interested and can make use of all available information including theoretical models, historical and geological data, and monitoring observations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Earthquake–Volcano Interactions
TL;DR: New measurements, statistical analyses, and models support the conjecture that a large earthquake can trigger subsequent volcanic eruptions over surprisingly long distance and time scales as mentioned in this paper, and the conjecture is supported by several experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constructing event trees for volcanic crises
TL;DR: Event trees are useful frameworks for discussing probabilities of possible outcomes of volcanic unrest as discussed by the authors, where each branch of the tree leads from a necessary prior event to a more specific outcome, e.g., from an eruption to a pyroclastic flow.
Journal ArticleDOI
10,000 Years of explosive eruptions of Merapi Volcano, Central Java: archaeological and modern implications
Christopher G. Newhall,Sutikno Bronto,Brent V. Alloway,N.G. Banks,I. Bahar,M.A. Del Marmol,R.D. Hadisantono,R.T. Holcomb,J. McGeehin,John N. Miksic,M. Rubin,S.D. Sayudi,R. Sukhyar,Supriyati Andreastuti,R.I. Tilling,R. Torley,R. Torley,D. Trimble,A.D. Wirakusumah +18 more
TL;DR: Stratigraphy and radiocarbon dating of pyroclastic deposits at Merapi Volcano, Central Java, reveals ∼10,000 years of explosive eruptions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The frequency of explosive volcanic eruptions in Southeast Asia
TL;DR: This work classifies Southeast Asian volcanoes into five groups, using their morphology and, where known, their eruptive history and degassing style, and estimates that decadal probabilities of VEI 4–8 eruptions in Southeast Asia are nearly 1.0.
