文摘

Phreatomagmatic explosions at Vulcano generated pyroclastic density currents. Pyroclastic density currents interacted with topography. We made field study of Grotta dei Palizzi 2 pyroclastic succession. We numerically simulated a 3D scenario for Vulcano constrained from the field. We discuss the sedimentation rate and importance of the field in volcanic modeling.
