Journal ArticleDOI
Optimising shape analysis to quantify volcanic ash morphology
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare shape measurements from different imaging techniques, including cross-sectional (2-D) and projected area images, and discuss their respective applications, and show that particle shape analysis that includes the full range of available grain sizes can contribute not only measurements of particle size and shape, but also information on size-dependent densities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Volcanological applications of unoccupied aircraft systems (UAS): Developments, strategies, and future challenges
Mike R. James,B. B. Carr,Fiona D'Arcy,Angela K. Diefenbach,Hannah R. Dietterich,Alessandro Fornaciai,Einat Lev,Emma J. Liu,David C. Pieri,Mel Rodgers,Benoît Smets,Akihiko Terada,Felix W. von Aulock,Thomas R. Walter,Kieran Wood,Edgar U. Zorn +15 more
TL;DR: Unoccupied aircraft systems (UAS) are developing into fundamental tools for tackling the grand challenges in volcanology; here, they are reviewed and their diverse applications are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of bubbles in generating fine ash during hydromagmatic eruptions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the vesicle characteristics to define a new shape factor, the concavity index, which provides an unbiased way to classify individual ash particles as either bubbly (vesicular particles and shards) or dense.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ash mists and brown snow: Remobilization of volcanic ash from recent Icelandic eruptions
Emma J. Liu,Katharine V. Cashman,Frances Beckett,Claire Witham,Susan Leadbetter,Matthew C. Hort,S. Guðmundsson +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the physical and chemical characteristics of ash deposited on new snow in Reykjavik, Iceland, following a blizzard on 6 March 2013 were characterized using the Lagrangian particle dispersion model.
Journal ArticleDOI
A distinct metal fingerprint in arc volcanic emissions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare measurements of arc basaltic volcano metal emissions with those from hotspot settings, and find that volcanic metal emissions are controlled by magmatic water content and redox: hydrous arc magmas that do not undergo sulfide saturation yield metal-rich, saline aqueous fluid.
