TL;DR: A marine geological survey was conducted in July 1998 to study the submarine extensions of both deltas as mentioned in this paper, and detailed profiles of depth and sub-bottom structure were obtained using a CHIRP II/bubble pulser system.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the storage of melt below the active Soufrière Hills Volcano (SHV), Montserrat, using joint geophysical inversion combined with a quantitative interpretation approach based on rock physics.

TL;DR: A tripartite zonation with prominent grain-size breaks was observed in turbidite beds and pyroclastic density current deposits as discussed by the authors, where fine particles are elutriated into the wake region by ambient entrainment through the current head, while coarse grains are transported in the body.

TL;DR: The largest volume sediment flows near the Soufriere Hills volcano on Montserrat in the Lesser Antilles in the last 26 kyr were generated by a large submarine slope failure of the carbonate shelf comprising the south-west flank of Antigua or the east flank of Redonda as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Sacks-Evertson strain data for the March 2004 explosion of the Soufriere Hills Volcano are characterized by large, roughly equal but opposite polarity changes at two near sites and much smaller changes at a more distant site.
