摘要: RECENT modelling of volcanic eruptions has shown that the efficiency subsurface degassing magmas determines whether magma erupts explosively or effuses quietly1,2. Slow uprise is often accompanied by effective degassing, leading to extrusion lava flows and domes. Although dome one less explosive modes eruption, it pyroclastic activities3–5. The 1991 eruption Unzen volcano provided an opportunity observe at close range several types small-scale flow (glowing avalanches) originating from Most are Merapi type, caused blocks falling a collapsing dome; others Pelean type in explosion side dome. lavas apparently show variable degrees self-explosivity. We suggest produced wide excess pore pressures extruded domes, resulting both Merapi-type Pelean-type
