Fragmentation Processes During Strombolian Explosions Revealed Using Particle Size Distribution Mapping

Fragmentation dynamics can be described by the size distribution of the fragments generated during an explosion. We approach the problem of magma fragmentation during a Strombolian explosion using the grain size distribution (GSD) of a ballistically emplaced lapilli-and-bomb deposit. We present a no...
