Modeling volcanic processes: the physics and mathematics of volcanism

---

Understanding the physical behavior of volcanoes is key to mitigating the hazards active volcanoes pose to the ever-increasing populations living nearby. The processes involved in volcanic eruptions are driven by a series of interlinked physical phenomena, and to fully understanding these, volanologiests must employ various physics subdisciplines. This book provides the first advanced-level, one stop resource examining the physics of volcanic begavior and reviewing the state-of-the-art in modeling volcanic processes. Each chapter begins by explaining simple modeling formulations and progresses to present cutting-edge research illustrated by case studies. Individual chapter cove subsurface magmatic processes through to eruption in various environmentsand conclude with the application of modeling to understanding the other volcanic planets of our Solar System. Providing an accessible and practical text for graduate students of physical volcanology, this book is also an omportant resource for reaesrchers and professionals in the fields of volcanology, geophysics, geochemistry, petrology and natural hazards.
