“…In this analysis, horizontal distance is used, therefore, the speed along the mountain slope may be as much as 10% larger. These values are almost the same as that for pyroclastic flows measured by visual observations (e.g., Fukui et al, 1991;Yamamoto et al, 1993).…”

“…The relationship between both the average carapace generation rate and the talus adjusted rate, and the extrusion rate is linear. This relationship is corroborated by various observations that rockfall activity, to a first order, varies with extrusion rate (Calder et al, 2005) and that at a larger scale pyroclastic flow is also extrusion rate dependant (Yamamoto et al, 1993;Uhira et al, 1994).…”

“…PDCs may form from lava dome collapses, such as at Unzen (Yamamoto et al 1993;Fujii & Nakada 1999), and Merapi (Voight et al 2000;Bourdier & Abdurachman 2001); from column collapses, such as at Mount Vesuvius, Italy (Bullard 1962;Lirer et al 1973); or from directed blasts as at Mount St Helens, Washington, USA (Kieffer 1981;Moore & Sisson 1981); and the Boxing Day event at SHV Voight et al 2002). This work largely deals with PDCs generated by lava-dome collapse, but also includes two events that are, to some degree, transitional and include an explosive component.…”

“…Ash-cloud surges can have a significant lateral component of motion, and have been known to detach and move independently from their parent flows (Fisher 1995). For example, decoupled pyroclastic surges were responsible for fatalities at Mt Pelée, Martinique in 1902 (Fisher & Heiken 1982); Unzen, Japan on 3 June 1991 (Yamamoto et al 1993); at Soufrière Hills Volcano (SHV), Montserrat on 25 June 1997 (Loughlin et al 2002a, b); and at Merapi Volcano, Indonesia on 18-19 December 1930, 22 November 1994and October -November 2010(Bourdier & Abdurachman 2001Smithsonian Institution 2011;Jenkins et al 2013). Several of these events, and their resultant deposits, have been well described and their dynamics analysed in detail retrospectively.…”
