Abstract Pumice rafts are floating mobile accumulations of low-density pumice clasts generated by silicic volcanic eruptions. in can drift for years, become waterlogged and sink, or stranded on shorelines. Here we show that the raft formed impressive, deep submarine eruption Havre caldera volcano (Southwest Pacific) July 2012 be mapped satellite imagery augmented sailing crew observations. Far from coastal interference, produced a single >400 km 2 1 day, thus initiating gigantic,...

The 2012 submarine eruption of Havre volcano in the Kermadec arc, New Zealand, is largest deep-ocean history and one very few recorded eruptions involving rhyolite magma. It was recognized from a gigantic 400-km2 pumice raft seen satellite imagery, but complexity this event concealed beneath sea surface. Mapping, observations, sampling by submersibles have provided an exceptionally high fidelity record seafloor products, which included lava sourced 14 vents at water depths 900 to 1220 m,...

Piston cores collected from IODP drilling platforms (and its predecessors) provide the best long-term geological and climatic record of marine sediments worldwide.Coring disturbances affecting original sediment texture have been recognized since early days coring include deformation resulting shear against core barrel, basal flow-in due to partial stroke, loss stratigraphy, fall-in, through catchers, structures formed during recovery on-deck transport.The most severe occur in noncohesive...

Fragmentation processes in eruptions are commonly contrasted as phreatomagmatic or magmatic; the latter requires only fragmentation of magma without external intervention, but often carries connotation disruption by bubbles magmatic gas. Phreatomagmatic involves vaporization and expansion water steam with rapid cooling and/or quenching magma. It is common to assess whether a pyroclast formed using particle vesicularity, shape particles, degree quenching. widely known that none these criteria...

Abstract Basaltic maar‐diatreme volcanoes, which have craters cut into preeruption landscapes (maars) underlain by downward‐tapering bodies of fragmental material commonly hypabyssal intrusions (diatremes), are produced multiple subsurface phreatomagmatic explosions. Although many maar‐diatremes been studied, the link between explosion dynamics and resulting deposit architecture is still poorly understood. Scaled experiments employed buried explosions known energies depths within layered...
