“…It follows that the deposition time takes its maximum value at this percentile (~1250 s, corresponding to 21 min) and ranges from few to 21 min, values that are compatible with other pyroclastic flows that were directly observed (e.g., Brand et al 2016). The deposition time corresponds to the time in which volcanic ash is in the air settling from the turbulent basal part and the co-ignimbrite ash cloud in the waning stage and can be potentially inhaled by human beings and animals.…”

“…Fluidized and dry granular flow experiments demonstrate that erosion can be aided by vertical pore pressure gradients [Roche et al, 2013] and/or by shear at the flow base [Rowley et al, 2011]. Field observations suggest that erosive capacity is also affected by topographic conditions that increase shear or collisional stresses including the following: (1) propagation on steep slopes close to the substrate's angle of repose (>25 ∘ ) [Cole et al, 1998;Bernard et al, 2014;Brand et al, 2016]; (2) transitions from high to low slope [Scarpati and Perrotta, 2012]; (3) irregular topography, such as debris avalanche hummocks ; or (4) channelized terrains, such as gullies along the flanks of volcanoes [Sparks et al, 1997;Cole et al, 1998].…”

“…This is not particularly surprising, as a wide variety of factors may contribute to observed significant lateral and vertical facies changes within the 18 May PDC deposits (Brand et al, 2016(Brand et al, , 2014. MSH14-01 and MSH14-02 are located 300 m apart and are both overlain by a 35-50 cm thick ash layer, followed by a pink, block-rich unit.…”
