In explosive submarine eruptions, volcanic jets transport fragmented tephra and exsolved
gases from the conduit into the water column. Upon eruption the volcanic jet mixes with …

Submarine pyroclastic eruptions at depths greater than a few hundred meters are generally
considered to be rare or absent because the pressure of the overlying water column is …

Subaqueous volcanic eruptions are natural events common under the world's oceans. Here
we report results from bench-scale underwater explosions that entrain and eject particles …

Deposits from explosive submarine eruptions have been found in the deep sea, 1–4 km
below the surface, with both flow and fall deposits extending several km's over the seafloor …

Submarine volcanic eruptions have the potential to generate tsunamis, which can cause
destruction well beyond the range of the eruption itself. Here, we present a series of …

Most volcanic eruptions occur in craters formed by previous activity. The presence of a crater
implies specific confinement geometries, variably filled by loose fragmental deposits, which …

No large submarine explosive eruption has ever been witnessed, yet such eruptions are
known to be fairly common from deposits of ancient seafloors, from tiny eruptions recently …

Submarine volcanic eruptions can perturb the water surface and subsequently generate
localized tsunamis. Herein waves are produced in analogous laboratory experiments by …

The majority of Earth's volcanic eruptions occur beneath the sea, but the limited number of
direct observations and samples limits our understanding of these unseen events. Subaerial …

Subaqueous eruptions are the most abundant on earth, and the proportion of such eruptions
that are explosive is larger than generally appreciated though still poorly constrained …
