Lahars are highly mobile mixtures of water and sediment of volcanic origin that are capable
of traveling tens to> 100 km at speeds exceeding tens of km hrrl. Such flows are among the …

The relationship between valley morphology and ash-cloud surge development for 12
pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) at Soufrière Hills Volcano (SHV), Montserrat is …

This paper describes a new methodology to quantify the variation in the output of a
computational fluid dynamics model for block and ash flows, when the digital elevation …

This paper presents a novel approach to assessing the hazard threat to a locale due to a
large volcanic avalanche. The methodology combines:(i) mathematical modeling of volcanic …

Abstract The Tacaná Volcanic Complex (TVC), shared by México and Guatemala, is
considered an active volcano that resumed phreatic explosions in 1949 and 1986. The TVC …

Our interest is the risk assessment of rare natural hazards, such as large volcanic pyroclastic
flows. Since catastrophic consequences of volcanic flows are rare events, our analysis …

In this paper we study the impact of errors and uncertainties in digital elevation modelson
the analysis of hazardous mass flows at Galeras volcano in Colombia. The increasing use …

With the onset of the data age, more and more of research is being carried out on
construction of efficient algorithms for handling Big Data sets. The current work proposes a …

Disaster response managers routinely use numerical modeling to assist in hazard response
and mitigation making the reliability and the accuracy of these models crucial to the decision …
