Pumice cone eruptions at Aluto volcano, Ethiopia by Clarke, Ben, Calder, Eliza S., Fontijn, Karen, Desalegn, Firawalin, Tierz, Pablo, Yirgu, Gezahegn

“…We investigate nine such pumice cones, and find that they are the product of moderate-intensity explosive eruptions that develop a sustained but unsteady eruption column, deposit lapilli- to block-sized tephra close to the vent forming pumice cones, can deposit distal tephra from an umbrella cloud, produce pyroclastic density currents by repeated partial column-collapse, and end with the emplacement of silicic lava. …”
