Volcanic geomorphology

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Volcanoes have been the subject of countless studies, aimed at understanding their the eruptive mechanisms and reconstructing their eruptive history. Although it is well known and acknowledged, that volcanism is an important morphogenetic agent, geomorphological studies of volcanic surface features and the role of exogenous processes in shaping regions of volcanic activity have only been conducted in small numbers in the past. The papers presented here focus on the following topics: morphologies created by effusive and explosive volcanism; influence of tectonic variables on the emplacement and the morphological evolution of volcanic edifices; modification of ancient volcanic landforms by long-term erosional processes; rapid erosion which is responsible for post-eruptive debris flows and volcanic hazards.
