DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvrad.2020.106267
Abstract: We present here the first attempt to understand the fast dynamics of an active basaltic volcano, namely Mt. Etna using soil gas radon measured in some sites located in strategic places around the volcano. Data… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jsames.2017.11.009
Abstract: Abstract Lacustrine sequences in active volcanic settings preserve the record of fall-out products (tephras) from explosive volcanic activity from both proximal and distal sources. Sediments of Lake Chalco, located in the western part of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2019.104209
Abstract: Abstract Whether volcanic activity during the Ordovician-Silurian transition (OST) in South China (SC) contributed to global volcanic activity has always been a controversial subject. Volcanic ash is the most direct evidence for volcanic activity and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2019gl084357
Abstract: Deep low‐frequency earthquakes (DLFEs) are ubiquitous seismic activities in the deep parts of volcanoes. Owing to the low signal‐to‐noise ratio, the seismic activities of DLFEs have not been characterized in detail; particularly, the linkage between… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-019-09620-0
Abstract: The latest Permian mass extinction, the most devastating biocrisis of the Phanerozoic, has been widely attributed to eruptions of the Siberian Traps Large Igneous Province, although evidence of a direct link has been scant to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1748-9326/aa6cb5
Abstract: Despite a continuous increase in well-mixed greenhouse gases, the global-mean surface temperature has shown a quasi-stabilization since 1998. This muted warming has been linked to the combined effects of internal climate variability and external forcing.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/science.abm7735
Abstract: Venus has a geologically young surface, but it is unknown whether it has ongoing active volcanism. From 1990 to 1992, the Magellan spacecraft imaged the planet’s surface, using synthetic aperture radar. We examined volcanic areas… read more here.
