    Notes: [Auszug] SIR-We welcomed the letter (Nature 345,658; 1990) from four professors at the University of Rome denouncing to the international scientific community the negative attitude of their faculty of medicine. We would like to express our support and to say that the situation they describe is not unique to ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Gravitational spreading of volcanic edifices produces two main structural features by which the process may be identified. These are, first, summit grabens and rifts (the product of extension), and second, basal thrust faults and folds (the products of compression). The association of these ...

    Notes: Abstract A dynamic model for the activity of Poas Volcano, Costa Rica, is proposed. Data collected during a three-year period show that the volcanic processes occur within a small hydrothermal system. Heat is supplied by a magma body in the conduit and is transferred to the surface by fluid convection. Within a given volume of rock, pore pressure builds up due to the upward motion of fluids and the increase in vapor pressure when the temperature rises above the boiling point. Ultimately, the system becomes unstable when the pore pressure overcomes the total pressure. This leads to the assumption that the kinetic and thermal energies are proportional to the depth at which the mechanical equilibrium is disturbed. Laboratory experiments were performed by heating samples of the crater lake deposits. The preliminary results of these experiments show significant analogies with the low-energy activity of the volcano. Following this model we estimated that a phreatic explosion which reaches 200 m in height (comparable to the one observed by Francis et al. in 1978) originates at a depth of 70 m and a temperature of 180° C; these values agree with those reported in the literature. In addition, “magmatic” sulfur, which partitions into the rising hydrothermal fluids, reacts at lower temperature and higher $$\underset{\raise0.3em\hbox{$\smash{\scriptscriptstyle-}$}}{f} O_2$$ to produce pockets of liquid sulfur in the conduit deposits and the lava dome. These pockets are subsequently erupted forming the pyroclastic sulfur.

    Description: Morphologic data for 147 cinder cones in southern Guatemala andwestern El Salvador are comparedwith data from the San Francisco volcanic field, Arizona (USA), Cima volcanic field, California (USA), Michoácan–Guanajuato volcanic field, Mexico, and the Lamongan volcanic field, East Java. The Guatemala cones have an average height of 110+/-50 m, an average basal diameter of 660+/-230 m and an average top diameter of 180+/-150 m. The generalmorphology of these cones can be described by their average cone angle of slope (24+/-7), average heightto- radius ratio (0.33+/-0.09) and their flatness (0.24+/-0.18). Although the mean values for the Guatemalan cones are similar to those for other volcanic fields (e.g., San Francisco volcanic field, Arizona; Cima volcanic field, California; Michoácan–Guanajuato volcanic field, Mexico; and Lamongan volcanic field, East Java), the range of morphologies encompasses almost all of those observed worldwide for cinder cones. Three new 40Ar/39Ar age dates are combined with 19 previously published dates for cones in Guatemala and El Salvador. There is no indication that the morphologies of these cones have changed over the last 500–1000 ka. Furthermore, a re-analysis of published data for other volcanic fields suggests that only in the Cima volcanic field (of those studied) is there clear evidence of degradation with age. Preliminary results of a numerical model of cinder cone growth are used to show that the range of morphologies observed in the Guatemalan cinder cones could all be primary, that is, due to processes occurring at the time of eruption.

    Description: We integrate geologic, structural, leveling and Differential SAR Interferometry data to show that Vesuvius began to spread onto its sedimentary substratum about 3,600 years ago. Moreover, we model the detected deformation with a solution of the lubrication approximation of the Navier-Stokes equations to show that spreading may continue for about 7,200 years more. Correlation of volcanic spreading with phases of the eruptive activity suggests that Plinian eruptions, which are thought to pose the major hazard, are less likely to occur in the near future.

    Description: We made a stratigraphic, structural and morphologic study of Amiata Volcano in Italy. We find that the edifice is dissected by intersecting grabens that accommodate the collapse of the higher sectors of the volcano. In turn, a number of compressive structures and diapirs exist all around the margin of the volcano. These structures create an angular drainage pattern, with stream damming and captures, and a set of lakes within and around the volcano. We interpret these structures as the result of volcanic spreading of the edifice of Amiata onto its weak substratum, formed by the late Triassic evaporites (Anidriti of Burano) and the Middle-Jurassic to Early-Cretaceous clayey chaotic complexes (Ligurian Complex). Regional doming created a slope in the basement forcing the outward flow and spreading of the ductile layers below the volcano. We model the dynamics of spreading with a scaled lubrication approximation of the Navier Stokes equations, and numerically study a solution. In the model we include simple functions for volcanic deposition and surface erosion that change the topography over time. Scaling indicates that spreading at Amiata could still be active. The numerical solution shows that, as the central part of the edifice sinks into the weak basement, diapiric structures of the underlying formations form around the base of the volcano. Deposition of volcanic rocks within the volcano and surface erosion away from it both enhance spreading. In addition, a sloping basement may constitute a trigger for the formation of trains of adjacent diapirs. Finally, we observe that volcanic spreading has created ideal heat traps that constitute todays’ exploited geothermal fields at Amiata. Normal faults generated by volcanic spreading, volcanic conduits, and direct contact between volcanic rocks (which host an extensive fresh-water aquifer) and the rocks of the geothermal field, constitute ideal pathways for water recharge during vapour extraction for geothermal energy production. We think that volcanic spreading could maintain faults in a critically stressed state, facilitating the occurrence of triggered seismicity.
