"This book comprehensively illustrates the elemental processes of vesiculation and crystallization recorded in volcanic products on the basis of the equilibrium and non-equilibrium theories. The book describes the derivation of equations and the basic physics behind them in deta…

Vesuvius, Campi Flegrei, and Campanian volcanism
Introduction -- Volcanotectonic structures -- Volcanotectonic deformation -- Volcanotectonic earthquakes -- Volcanotectonic processes -- Formation and dynamics of magma chambers and reservoirs -- Magma movement through the crust : dike paths -- Dynamics of volcanic eruptions -- …
A volcanic eruption occurs when a magma-filled fracture propagates from its source to the surface. Analysing and understanding the conditions that allow this to happen constitute a major part of the scientific field of volcanotectonics. This new volume introduces this cutting-ed…
"Volcanotectonics is comparatively new scientific field that combines various methods and techniques of geology and physics so as to understand the structure and behaviour of polygenetic (central) volcanoes and the conditions for their eruptions. More specifically, volcanotecton…

The spatial and temporal coverage of geodetic data sets such as Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and Global Positioning System (GPS) is increasing to the point where we can constrain many aspects of the deformation associated with earthquakes and volcanic eruptio…
"A continuation of the story begun in 'Deep Winter', finding the Drummond family and their friends adapting to the radically altered world they now find themselves in."--Lulu.com
Deformation monitoring results are reported here for the period 1988-1998 at Merapi volcano, one of the most active and dangerous volcanoes in Indonesia. Comprehensive databases of various geophysical parameters were concurrently studied and analyzed to 2000, and similar data we…
The ∼74 ka eruption of the Youngest Toba Tuff in Sumatra, Indonesia, was one of the largest single volcanic eruptions in geologic history. The compositional and thermal evolution of the magma reservoir prior to eruption was investigated through spatially-sensitive analyses of th…
Despite recognition as one of the greatest volcanic hazards in the southwestern United States, many aspects of the post-caldera history of Valles caldera are poorly constrained. This study provides 49 new high-precision 40AR/39AR sanidine ages and surface volume estimations to r…
"Forecasting and Planning for Volcanic Hazards, Risks, and Disasters expands and complements the subject and themes in Volcanic Hazards, Risks and Disasters. Together, the two volumes represent an exhaustive compendium on volcanic hazards, risks, and disasters. Volume two presen…

"For years, tourists have trekked across cracked rock at Hawaii's Kilauea volcano to witness the awe-inspiring sight of creeping lava and its devastating effects on the landscape. In 2010, Eyjafjallajökull erupted in Iceland, stranding travellers as a cloud of ash covered wester…
