Co-Extrusive Magma Transport and Volcanic Dome Formation: Implications for Triggering Explosive Volcanic Eruptions Open
Polymer co-extrusion experiments are described simulating the dynamics of two different magmas (e.g., silicic and mafic having different viscosities) flowing simultaneously in a vertical volcanic pipe or conduit which results in the effusi…

Accessing Magma: A Necessary Revolution in Earth Sciences and Renewable Energy Open
Earth System Science stands as the future operating framework to monitor the pulse of the Earth, and to diagnose and address the challenges of global change. Magmatism and volcanism are primary processes connecting the solid Earth to the a…

Why not drill into magma to understand the “dynamics and timescales in magmatic reservoirs”? Open
How can we not afford to scientifically probe magma? Fifteen years of accidental drilling encounters with magma have shown that it can be done safely with recovery of magmatic and partial melt samples quenched in situ. More could be gained…

Mechanism of magma mixing at Glass Mountain, Medicine Lake Highland Volcano, California Open
Mixing of basaltic and rhyolitic magmas at Glass Mountain appears to have been driven by vesiculation of basaltic magma as it intruded a rhyolitic magma chamber. Rapid cooling of basaltic magma formed a mafic foam which floated and became …

Implementing the Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT): linking volcanology and geothermal research for future hazard and energy solutions Open
Driven by the need to understand magmatic systems, to improve volcano monitoring strategy, and to develop next-generation, high-enthalpy, geothermal energy, we introduce the Krafla Magma Testbed (KMT) – located in Northeast Iceland. …

Exploring and Modeling the Magma-Hydrothermal Regime Open
This Special Issue comprises 12 papers from authors in 10 countries with new insights on the close coupling between magma as an energy and fluid source with hydrothermal systems for the primary control of magmatic behavior. Data and interp…

Distribution and Transport of Thermal Energy within Magma–Hydrothermal Systems Open
Proximity to magma bodies is generally acknowledged as providing the energy source for hot hydrothermal reservoirs. Hence, it is appropriate to think of a “magma–hydrothermal system” as an entity, rather than as separate systems. Repeated …

Planning an International Magma Observatory Open
A planned project will drill into a magma reservoir in Iceland that has never erupted to the surface, giving scientists a fresh look at Earth’s underground “plumbing.”

Springtime Flood Risk Reduction in Rural Arctic: A Comparative Study of Interior Alaska, United States and Central Yakutia, Russia Open
Every spring, riverine communities throughout the Arctic face flood risk. As the river ice begins to thaw and break up, ice jams—accumulation of chunks and sheets of ice in the river channel, force melt water and ice floes to back up for d…
