I'm thrilled to share our latest research published in Nature Communications! 😍 🎉 🌋 Our study demonstrates how superheating in mafic magmas controls clinopyroxene nucleation delay and magma ascent dynamics 👇 doi.org/10.1038/s41467-026-7… @4Dvolc @MarghePolacci @MikeBurton_Volc

🚨 Excited to share our latest research on the 2021 Tajogaite eruption (La Palma, Spain) 🌋 We used 3D X-ray microtomography to unravel how vesicle textures and pore networks in volcanic clasts relate to eruption style and gas escape efficiency. doi.org/10.1007/s00445-025-0…

Scientists investigate triggers of explosive volcanic eruptions in lab simulation study

Scientists at The University of Manchester have effectively simulated how bubbles grow in volcanic magma thanks to a novel pressure vessel that can mimic the eruption process in a laboratory setting.

También fue publicado un artículo sobre los procesos destructivos que esculpieron el edificio del volcán Planchón (Chile central) en los últimos 50 mil años. Hoy existe un depósito de avalancha volcánica de 95 km de largo! Feliz de participar en este trabajo.
