It’s possible that a pyroclastic flow running on an air cushion would leave a distinctive geological fingerprint in the deposits they ultimately leave behind.

Italy’s Mount Etna volcano violently erupted on Monday, sending plumes of toxic ash and smoke billowing into the sky as people on the mountain ran for safety to escape the danger.

Callinex prepared an indicated mineral resource on the Rainbow deposit of 3.44 Mt grading 3.59% CuEq for 272.4 Mlb CuEq (238.3 Mlb Cu, 56.9 Mlb Zn, 37.6 koz Au, 692.8 koz Ag, 2.3 Mlb Pb), an ...

The fossil vulture is preserved in ash deposits, which is extremely unusual. When analysing the fossil vulture plumage, we found ourselves in uncharted territory.

Prof. Dawid A. Iurino (University of Milan), coordinator of the study said: “We are used to think that volcanic deposits are associated with hot, fast-moving pyroclastic currents that will ...

Archaeologists stumble on rare remains of Roman soldier 'turned to glass' by Vesuvius The extreme and rapid nature of Mount Vesuvius' pyroclastic flows vitrified the brain tissue of the ...

“ [Temperatures of] 550C in short lived diluted PDC event leaving only a thin ash layer on the ground, and later followed by the deposition of lower temperature but thicker pyroclastic deposits ...

Mount Spurr is an ice and snow-covered stratovolcano complex, meaning that it is a large, cone-shaped volcano formed by lava flows, pyroclastic deposits, mudflow deposits, and lava domes.

It’s worth noting, however, that depending on how quickly the pyroclastic deposits solidified, humans and animals could have left the footprints months after the explosion.

The island is known among scientists for its unique ecology in addition to its role as a gathering place for great white sharks. In 2005, the Mexican National Commission on Protected Natural Areas ...
