Avalanches of ash, gas and rock that cascade downhill during volcanic eruptions may be even more dangerous than scientists had realized. Pulses of high pressure form within these slides, known as ...
An explosion on the slopes of Stromboli sent an avalanche of pyroclastic flow rushing down the side of the Italian volcano on Monday (Nov. 16). The stronger-than-usual explosion was captured on ...
A large pyroclastic flow races down Mayon Volcano, sending ash sweeping across the slopes. The fast-moving surge shows why ...
Roughly 50 kilometers separate two of Central America’s most dangerous volcanoes, and both are erupting. At Santa Maria, the Santiaguito dome complex has been shedding superheated rock in pyroclastic ...
A film depicting the last days of Pompeii, the ancient city destroyed by volcanic ash from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, is set to be released. Coincidentally, two volcanic eruptions have occurred ...
Geologists have determined why — unlike in the neighbouring town of Pompeii — the inhabitants of the ancient Roman town of Herculaneum were not well-preserved by the eruption of the volcano Vesuvius ...
TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The Geological Agency has set the volcanic activity status of Mount Semeru in Lumajang, East Java, to level IV or Warning since Wednesday afternoon, November 19, 2025, at 5:00 PM ...
Pyroclastic flows are some of the most fearsome hazards posed by erupting volcanoes. These avalanches of superheated ash, gas, and rock are responsible for some of the most famous volcanic disasters ...
This is a map of the Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat, indicating the potential hazards given differing volumes of material in the pyroclastic flow. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not ...
The emplacement of small-volume ( less than 0,1km3) pyroclastic flow is strongly controlled by topography, according to a new study by researchers of the Institute of Earth Sciences Jaume Almera of ...
