The radial spreading of volcanic umbrella clouds deduced from satellite measurements

Analysis of thermal infrared satellite measurements of umbrella clouds generated by volcanic eruptions suggests that asymptotic gravity current models of the temporal (t) radial (r) spreading (r ~tf, f < 1) of the umbrella-shaped intrusion do not adequately explain the observations. Umbrella clou...
