We have developed a new integral model that accounts for the coupling between 11 a tephra plume and a lava fountain.
12• The initial grain-size distribution and radius of a lava fountain control the rise height 13 of the surrounding tephra plume.
14• The model can explain the relationship between the tephra plume and cone de-15 posits and the observed plume and lava fountain height.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
