Explosive Behavior of Intermediate Magmas: The Example of Cotopaxi Volcano (Ecuador)

Explosive Behavior of Intermediate Magmas: The Example of Cotopaxi Volcano (Ecuador)

Abstract The variability in intensity and style shown by explosive volcanism has been traditionally explained by a complex interplay among melt composition and pre‐eruptive volatile content, which modulate magma ascent and conduit dynamics. However, magmas having similar compositions may be characte...
