Laboratory simulations of fluid-induced seismicity, hydraulic fracture, and fluid flow (2019)
Journal Article
Benson, P. M., Austria, D. C., Gehne, S., Butcher, E., Harnett, C. E., Fazio, M., …Tomas, R. (2020). Laboratory simulations of fluid-induced seismicity, hydraulic fracture, and fluid flow. Geomechanics for Energy and the Environment, 24, Article 100169. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gete.2019.100169

Fluid-induced seismicity has been observed and recorded for decades. Seismic energy necessarily requires a source, which is frequently related to rock fracture either in compression or tension. In both cases, such fracture may be promoted by crustal... Read More about Laboratory simulations of fluid-induced seismicity, hydraulic fracture, and fluid flow.

Reconstructing the Anak Krakatau flank collapse that caused the December 2018 Indonesian tsunami (2019)
Journal Article
Williams, R., Rowley, P., & Garthwaite, M. C. (2019). Reconstructing the Anak Krakatau flank collapse that caused the December 2018 Indonesian tsunami. Geology, 47(10), 973-976. https://doi.org/10.1130/G46517.1

Volcanogenic tsunamis are one of the deadliest volcanic phenomena. Understanding their triggering processes, and mitigating their effect, remains a major challenge. On 22 December 2018, flank failure of the Anak Krakatau volcano in Indonesia generate...

Inferring pyroclastic density current flow conditions using syn-depositional sedimentary structures (2019)
Journal Article
Pollock, N. M., Brand, B. D., Rowley, P. J., Sarocchi, D., & Sulpizio, R. (2019). Inferring pyroclastic density current flow conditions using syn-depositional sedimentary structures. Bulletin of Volcanology, 81(8), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00445-019-1303-z

The processes occurring in the basal region of concentrated pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) influence the mobility, runout distance, and damage potential of a current, but directly observing these processes is extremely difficult. Instead, we mus... Read More about Inferring pyroclastic density current flow conditions using syn-depositional sedimentary structures.
