Insights into the Oxidation State of Arc Magmas from the Xenolith Suite Sangeang Api Volcano, Eastern Indonesia. Ben Cooke, John Foden, and Alan Collins University of Adelaide, Earth Science, Adelaide, Australia ([email protected]) At ∆logQFM +2.5 ± 1 arc magmas are significantly more oxidized than MORB (∆logQFM 0 ± 0.5, Cottrell and Kelley, 2011). The origin of this oxidized state remains controversial, either due to oxidation of the mantle wedge source, or to processes operating as these volatile-rich magmas ascend to upper lithospheric pressures? Sangeang Api is an active volcano in the eastern Sunda Arc in the strait between the islands of Sumbawa and Flores. Its lavas are shoshonitic with silica undersaturated alkalic composition and transport abundant co-genetic, cumulate pyroxenite and gabbroic xenoliths. Lavas and xenoliths all contain pargasite to Mg-hastingite amphibole. Applying the formulations of Ridolfi, et. al. (2012) these yield a continuous range of pressure estimates from 975MPa to 340MPa representing crustal level crystallisation from the Moho at 34km up to 12km. Temperature estimates (1072-976˚C) and water content (6.51 to 3.15wt.% ) both decline continuously with depth. fO2 estimates range from ∆NNO+0.2 to +1.2 and show an initial trend of oxidation from the Moho up to ∼ 500MPa and then dominated by lava’s phenocrysts revert to a trend of reduction at the shallower depths. Cl in amphibole increases from the Moho up to 500MPa and then abruptly declines.

Almost 800 years after the eruption, the geomorphological impact of this eruption on the island of Lombok remains unknown, whereas its overall climatic and societal consequences are now better understood. A combination of stratigraphic information, present-day topography, geophysical measurement with two-dimensional resistivity profiling technique, local written sources, as well as laboratory and computational analysis, were used to obtain detailed information concerning geomorphic impacts of the 1257 CE eruption of Samalas volcano on the coastal area along the Alas Strait in West Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia. This study provides new information related to the geomorphic impact of a major eruption volcanic in coastal areas, in this case, on the eastern part of Lombok and the western coast of Sumbawa. In the first place, the study result shows that since the 1257 CE eruption, the landscape on the eastern part of Lombok is still evolved until the present time.

Introduction 1.1 The Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC) Darwin is responsible for monitoring the area from the Andaman Islands (India) eastwards to the Solomon Islands including the volcanically active Indonesian archipelago, Papua New Guinea and the southern Philippines. More than 150 active volcanoes lie within the area, some of which have given rise to the largest eruptions in human history. Areas within the region have poor communications and general infrastructure, incomplete volcanic monitoring and are characterised by moist tropical convection that makes remote sensing difficult for much of the year. 2. Discussion 2.1 A total of 1511 Volcanic Ash Advisories (VAA) were issued by VAAC Darwin from the 1st of July 2013 to the 30th of June 2014 (see Figure 1). During this period the most significant ash events within the VAAC Darwin area were the high level eruptions of the volcanoes Sinabung in February 2014, Kelut in February 2014 and Sangeang Api in May 2014 (see Figures 2 and 3).

Whelley • Martina Ulvrova Received: 21 December 2012 / Accepted: 2 August 2013 Ó Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2013 Abstract Southeast Asia has had both volcanic tsunamis and possesses some of the most densely populated, economically important and rapidly developing coastlines in the world. This contribution provides a review of volcanic tsunami hazard in Southeast Asia. Source mechanisms of tsunami related to eruptive and gravitational processes are presented, together with a history of past events in the region. A review of available data shows that many volcanoes are potentially tsunamigenic and present often neglected hazard to the rapidly developing coasts of the region. We highlight crucial volcanic provinces in Indonesia, the Philippines and Papua New Guinea and propose strategies for facing future events.

  • The Development of Volcanic Ash Cloud Layers Over Hours to Days Due to Atmospheric Turbulence Layering
    atmosphere Article The Development of Volcanic Ash Cloud Layers over Hours to Days Due to Atmospheric Turbulence Layering Marcus Bursik 1,* , Qingyuan Yang 2, Adele Bear-Crozier 3, Michael Pavolonis 4 and Andrew Tupper 5 1 Center for Geohazards Studies, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY 14260, USA 2 Earth Observatory of Singapore and Asian School of the Environment, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore 639798, Singapore; [email protected] 3 Bureau of Meteorology, Melbourne, VIC 3001, Australia; [email protected] 4 NOAA Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI 53706, USA; [email protected] 5 Natural Hazards Consulting, Montmorency, VIC 3094, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-716-645-4265 Abstract: Volcanic ash clouds often become multilayered and thin with distance from the vent. We explore one mechanism for the development of this layered structure. We review data on the characteristics of turbulence layering in the free atmosphere, as well as examples of observations of layered clouds both near-vent and distally. We then explore dispersion models that explicitly use the observed layered structure of atmospheric turbulence. The results suggest that the alternation of turbulent and quiescent atmospheric layers provides one mechanism for the development of multilayered ash clouds by modulating vertical particle motion. The largest particles, generally >100 µm, are little affected by turbulence. For particles in which both settling and turbulent diffusion µ Citation: Bursik, M.; Yang, Q.; are important to vertical motion, mostly in the range of 10–100 m, the greater turbulence intensity Bear-Crozier, A.; Pavolonis, M.; and more rapid turbulent diffusion in some layers causes these particles to spend greater time in Tupper, A.

  • Volcanic Ash
    HAZARDOUS WEATHER PHENOMENA Volcanic Ash Bureau of Meteorology › Aviation Services Introduction Volcanic ash in the air is composed of fine pulverised rock, minerals and glass, and is accompanied by a number of gases which are then converted into droplets of sulphuric acid and other substances. It is potentially deadly to aircraft and their passengers. The most critical effect is caused by ash melting in the engine, and then fusing into a glass-like coating on components, causing loss of thrust and possible engine failure. In addition, there is an abrasion of engine parts, the airframe and Augustine Volcano, 2006. Image, United States Geological Survey. those parts protruding from the aircraft, and possible clogging of the fuel and cooling systems. Volcanic ash in the Nine regional Volcanic Ash Advisory Centres (VAAC) are placed throughout the air is composed of world to detect, track and forecast the movement of volcanic ash clouds and to fine pulverised rock, provide advice to meteorological watch offices in their area of responsibility. minerals and glass These VAACs are Anchorage (US), Buenos Aires (Argentina), Darwin (Australia), London (UK), Montreal (Canada), Tokyo (Japan), Toulouse (France), Washington (US) and is accompanied and Wellington (NZ). by a number of gases which are then converted into droplets of sulphuric acid and other substances. It is potentially deadly to aircraft and their passengers. Volcanic Ash Advisory Centres – Areas of Responsibility. The highest concentration of active volcanoes lies along the rim of the Pacific Ocean, the so-called ‘Pacific Ring of Fire’ which stretches northwards along the western edge of South and North America, across the Aleutian and Kuril Island chains, down through the Kamchatka Peninsula (Russia), Japan and the Philippines and across Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand to the islands of the South Pacific.
