Kristin Garofalo Preface This thesis comprises three independent manuscripts that are prepared for submission to international journals. They may therefore be subject to revision. Each publication contains its own abstract, introduction, sampling and analytical methods description, data presentation, discussion, conclusion, and reference list. The three papers are: The fumarolic gas discharges at Mombacho Volcano (Nicaragua): presence of magmatic gas species and implications for a volcanic surveillance.

  • Volcanism and Geochemistry in Central America: Progress and Problems M
    Volcanism and Geochemistry in Central America: Progress and Problems M. J. Carr1, M.D. Feigenson1, L. C. Patino2 and J.A. Walker3 1Department of Geological Sciences, Rutgers University 2Department of Geological Sciences, Michigan State University 3Department of Geology and Environmental Geosciences, Northern Illinois University Most Central American volcanoes occur in an impressive volcanic front that trends parallel to the strike of the subducting Cocos Plate. The volcanic front is a chain, made of right-stepping, linear segments, 100 to 300 Km in length. Volcanoes cluster into centers, whose spacing is random but averages about 27 Km. These closely spaced, easily accessible volcanic centers allow mapping of geochemical variations along the volcanic front. Abundant back-arc volcanism in southeast Guatemala and central Honduras allow two cross-arc transects. Several element and isotope ratios (e.g. Ba/La, U/Th, B/La, 10Be/9Be, 87Sr/86Sr) that are thought to signal subducted marine sediments or altered MORB consistently define a chevron pattern along the arc, with its maximum in Nicaragua. Ba/La, a particularly sensitive signal, is 130 at the maximum in Nicaragua but decreases out on the limbs to 40 in Guatemala and 20 in Costa Rica, which is just above the nominal mantle value of 15. This high amplitude regional variation, roughly symmetrical about Nicaragua, contrasts with the near constancy, or small gradient, in several plate tectonic parameters such as convergence rate, age of the subducting Cocos Plate, and thickness and type of subducted sediment. The large geochemical changes over relatively short distances make Central America an important margin for seeking the tectonic causes of geochemical variations; the regional variation has both a high amplitude and structure, including flat areas and gradients.

  • A New Pathway to Untangle the Question: Was the Volcanic Eruption Triggered by the Earthquake?
    A NEW PATHWAY TO UNTANGLE THE QUESTION: WAS THE VOLCANIC ERUPTION TRIGGERED BY THE EARTHQUAKE? Gino Steven González Ilama1 Supervisor: Eisuke FUJITA2 MEE19703 Bunichiro SHIBAZAKI3* Takumi HAYASHIDA3**, Saeko KITA3** Masaru SUGAHARA4** ABSTRACT The relationship between tectonic earthquakes and volcanoes is one of the most striking, but yet less well-understood topics in earth sciences, due to the lack of observational data. When this interaction occurs, volcanoes may react in the short term (hours to days) to long term (months to decades), causing an eruption, which suggests that what happens inside the volcano to trigger this new eruption needs time. In 2012, three large earthquakes struck Central America, and some volcanoes erupted days after, while others took erupted months to years after the earthquakes to enter into an eruption. This poses to the question: was the eruption triggered by the earthquakes? Here I show that the large earthquakes contributed to the increment in the number of volcanic eruptions in the region. I found that only volcanoes were already undergoing a certain degree of unrest and without large eruptions previous to the large tectonic earthquakes erupted, thus suggesting that the volcanoes were nearly ready to erupt and that the earthquakes helped, but not necessarily caused the volcanic eruptions. The present research can become a tool for forecasting volcanic activity when a large earthquake hits a region if the volcanic activity is previously well monitored and to communicate and prepare the population and to reduce the volcanic risk if the protocols are well established. Keywords: Earthquake and volcano interaction, volcanic eruptions, volcanic unrest, stress, Monte Carlo method.

  • Volcanic History of Western Nicaragua and Geochemical
    VOLCANIC HISTORY OF WESTERN NICARAGUA AND GEOCHEMICAL EVOLUTION OF THE CENTRAL AMERICAN VOLCANIC FRONT by IAN SAGINOR A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Geological Sciences Written under the direction of Professor Michael J. Carr And approved by _______________________________ _______________________________ _______________________________ _______________________________ New Brunswick, NJ October, 2008 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Volcanic History of Western Nicaragua and Geochemical Evolution of the Central American Volcanic Front Dissertation Director: Professor Michael J. Carr As part of a long term study on the geochemical evolution of the Central American Volcanic Front led by my advisor, Michael Carr and colleagues at Rutgers University, my dissertation work centers around the development of a better understanding of the duration and scope of a Central America volcanic lull to better constrain and interpret possible causation. To so, I have attempted to improve our knowledge of the volcanic record during this interval by attempting to locate samples that might have erupted during this time period. This effort yielded ages on volcanic samples ranging from 1.1 to 3.6 Ma and, thus, substantially reducing the volcanic gap in Nicaragua. Thus, it may be that while Nicaraguan volcanism was reduced in volume between 7 and 3.6 Ma, activity was still occurring albeit at a substantially reduced rate. Results of this effort, has given a more complete record that permits more precise analysis of how the volcanic front has evolved since the Miocene. Geochemical analyses of the active and Miocene volcanic fronts document that U/Th values increased by nearly threefold following the Central America, Pacific Coast “carbonate crash” that has been documented at about 10 Ma, related to the closing of the Isthmus of Panama.
