Abstract:
Explosive volcanic eruptions perturb the atmosphere, and their main impact arises from the large quantities of 802 emitted. Within this thesis this effect is characterised from a modelling perspective and the detection and measure- ment of 802 by a satellite are improved. A stratospheric aerosol box model is developed that parameterises the aerosol evolution from an emitted mass of volcanic 802. Using aerosol optical depth measurements and a simple energy balance model, the 802 mass is directly related to a global average tempera- ture change. Combining this model with historical eruption reco

Abstract:
Explosive volcanic eruptions can inject sulfur dioxide (SO2) into the stratosphere, which forms stratospheric sulfate aerosol that can significantly impact the climate. The radiative forcing of an eruption depends on several eruption source parameters: the mass of SO2 emitted, the latitude and the emission height. However, the combined effects of these parameters are not well understood. Reconstructions of historic volcanic radiative forcing, which are essential for understanding the role of volcanism on climate variability, are derived from ice core sulfate records, but rely on relationships

Abstract:
Geothermal energy consumption is projected to increase along with other renewable energy in the future. Therefore, it is important to have a better understanding on the evolution of geothermal systems to optimize the exploitation of such resources. Generally, numerical models are used as a fundamental tool to study a potential geothermal field. However, current modeling practices tend to focus on the shallow area around the heat source, while ignoring the deeper part below the heat source. The purpose of this project is to observe the influence of lower boundary at the bottom of intrusion towa

The Soufriere Hills Volcano has devastated much of the oriole's native habitat, and populations within intact forests have plummeted in recent years. One hypothesized cause for the Montserrat Oriole's decline is that low insect prey numbers during the nesting season, as a result of volcanic ash in the environment, is resulting in increased nest failure.

Large explosive volcanic eruptions inject SO2 into the stratosphere where it is oxidised to sulphate aerosols which reflect sunlight. This causes a reduction in global temperature and precipitation lasting a few years. Here the robust features of this precipitation response are investigated, using superposed epoch analysis that combines results from multiple eruptions. The precipitation response is first analysed using the climate model HadCM3 compared to two gauge based land precipitation datasets.

Volcanic eruptions and unrest have the potential to have large impacts on society causing social, economic and environmental losses. One of the primary goals of volcanological studies is to understand a volcano’s behaviour so that future instances of unrest or impending eruptions can be predicted. Despite this, our ability to predict the onset, location and size of future periods of unrest remains inadequate and one of the main problems in forecasting is associated with the inherent complexity of volcanoes. In practice, most reliable forecasts have employed a probabilistic approach where knowl

Abstract:
About 7,000 years ago two major tephra-falls blanketed the Pacific Northwest in volcanic ash. These two tephra-falls, identified as the Llao and climatic tephra-falls, were a part of the eruptive events that led up to the collapse of Mount Mazama to form Crater Lake in the southern Oregon Cascades. The tephra-falls occurred about 200 years apart at around 7,000 years B.P. and 6,800 years B.P. for the Llao and climatic eruptions respectively. The effects of the tephra-falls on the flora, fauna, and people of the period have been characterized by different researchers as ranging from minimal to

Abstract:
A particular synergy among GPS and SAR techniques, to improve the precision of the current ground deformation monitoring techniques, is investigated. The study of atmo- spheric anomalies in the GPS EM waves propagation is useful to extrapolate information about the wet refractivity field. Because of its height and the quite variable weather conditions, the estimation of Mount Etna atmospheric anomalies using GPS measure- ments have noticeable importance to calibrate the SAR interferograms and to establish the “effective” ground deformation of the volcanic edifice. In this study we presented

The volcanic Lanyu Island has a high prevalence of scrub typhus, which is transmitted by chigger mites; in addition, spotted fever group rickettsiae have been detected in hard ticks. Rodents are the primary hosts of chiggers and hard ticks. The rodent community in Lanyu is dominated by the exotic Asian house rat (Rattus tanezumi), whi

Abstract:
Fluorine is the most reactive and the most electronegative of all elements, meaning that it has a powerful attraction for electrons and that it is able to attack all other elements, with the exception of oxygen and nitrogen, so it is not found in the free elemental state in nature. Fluorine is widely distributed throughout the earth’s crust as the fluoride ion. Fluorine is reported to be the 13th most abundant element in the earth’s crust (Smith and Hodge, 1979), with an average concentration of 0.032% by weight. Fluorides are released into the environment naturally through the weathering and

Abstract:
<p>The theory of radiative transfer is used to explain how a stratospheric aerosol layer may, for large solar zenith angles, increase the flux of UV-B light at the ground. As previous explanations are heuristic and incomplete, I first provide a rigorous and complete explanation of how this occurs. I show that an aerosol layer lying above Antarctica during spring will decrease the integrated daily dose of biologically weighted irradiance, weighted by the erythema action spectrum, by only up to 5%. Thus after a volcanic eruption, life in Antarctica during spring will suffer the combined ef

Abstract:
In the present work I infer the 1D shear-wave velocity model in the volcanic area of Pozzuoli-Solfatara using the dispersion properties of both Rayleigh waves generated by artificial explosions and microtremor. The group-velocity dispersion curves are retrieved from application of the Multiple Filter Technique (MFT) to single-station recordings of air-gun sea shots. Seismic signals are filtered in different frequency bands and the dispersion curves are obtained by evaluating the arrival times of the envelope maxima of the filtered signals. Fundamental and higher modes are carefully recognized
