Journal ArticleDOI
Volcanological and petrological evolution of Vulcano island (Aeolian Arc, southern Tyrrhenian Sea)
TL;DR: Petrological and geochemical data for volcanic rocks from Vulcano island are reported in this paper, where the authors develop a model for the evolution of the Vulcano plumbing system by using fractional crystallization processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The analysis of the influence of pumice shape on its terminal velocity
Pierfrancesco Dellino,Daniela Mele,Rosanna Bonasia,Giuseppe Braia,Luigi La Volpe,Roberto Sulpizio +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed new experimental data of terminal velocity together with a quantitative shape analysis of a wide range of pumice particles to predict the terminal velocity of a pyroclastic eruption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of the Fossa Cone, Vulcano
TL;DR: In decreasing order of abundance, the principal emplacement mechanisms for deposits of the Fossa edifice of Vulcano include: dry surge, wet surge, pyroclastic-fall, lahar, lava-flow, pyrolastic-flow and epiclastic processes as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transition from calc-alkaline to potassium-rich magmatism in subduction environments: geochemical and Sr, Nd, Pb isotopic constraints from the island of Vulcano (Aeolian arc)
TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of mantle metasomatism vs. crustal contamination in the genesis of arc magmas with different potassium contents has been investigated using new trace element and Sr-Nd-Pb isotopic data on the island of Vulcano, Aeolian arc.
Journal ArticleDOI
A complex, Subplinian-type eruption from low-viscosity, phonolitic to tephri-phonolitic magma: the AD 472 (Pollena) eruption of Somma-Vesuvius, Italy
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed stratigraphic reconstruction of the Pollena eruption (472 AD) of Somma-Vesuvius is presented, with three main eruptive phases recognized, related either to changes in the eruptive processes and/or to relative changes of melt composition.
