Volatile budgets and evolution in porphyry-related magma systems, determined using apatite (2024)
Journal Article
Lormand, C., Humphreys, M. C., Colby, D. J., Coumans, J. P., Chelle-Michou, C., & Li, W. (2024). Volatile budgets and evolution in porphyry-related magma systems, determined using apatite. Lithos, 480-481, Article 107623. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lithos.2024.107623

Volatile-bearing minerals, such as apatite, Ca5(PO4)3(OH,F,Cl), can record changes in dissolved magmatic volatile species during differentiation and, unlike melt inclusions, are sensitive to the presence of an exsolved fluid phase. Populations of apa... Read More about Volatile budgets and evolution in porphyry-related magma systems, determined using apatite.

Characterizing the evolution of mass flow properties and dynamics through analysis of seismic signals: insights from the 18 March 2007 Mt. Ruapehu lake-breakout lahar. Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 23(3), https://doi.org/10.5194/nhess-23-1029-2023

Monitoring for mass flows on volcanoes can be challenging due to the ever-changing landscape along the flow path, which can drastically transform the properties and dynamics of the flow. These changes to the flows require the need for detection strat...

Journal Article
Garcia, M., Swanson, K., Lormand, C., & Norman, M. (2022). Petrology of Koko Rift Basalts: Hawai‘i's most recent and atypical rejuvenation stage eruptive sequence. Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 424, Article 107504. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2022.107504

Rejuvenated volcanism is a worldwide phenomena occurring on many volcanic oceanic islands in all of the major ocean basins (e.g., Samoa, Madeira, Mauritius). This plume-related volcanism follows the main edifice-building stage after a hiatus of varia...

Shallow magmatic processes revealed by cryptic microantecrysts: a case study from the Taupo Volcanic Zone (2021)
Journal Article
Lormand, C., Zellmer, G., Sakamoto, N., Ubide, T., Kilgour, G., Yurimoto, H., …Moebis, A. (2021). Shallow magmatic processes revealed by cryptic microantecrysts: a case study from the Taupo Volcanic Zone. Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, 176, Article 97. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00410-021-01857-7

Arc magmas typically contain phenocrysts with complex zoning and diverse growth histories. Microlites highlight the same level of intracrystalline variations but require nanoscale resolution which is globally less available. The southern Taupo Volcan...

The Tongariro Volcanic Centre (TgVC) is a complex volcanic system located at the southern end of the Taupo Volcanic Zone in New Zealand, and has produced historical explosive eruptions of different eruptive styles. Its three ski fields and its iconic...

The 1974 West Flank Eruption of Mount Etna: A Data-Driven Model for a Low Elevation Effusive Event. (2020)
Journal Article

Low elevation flank eruptions represent highly hazardous events due to their location near, or in, communities. Their potentially high effusion rates can feed fast moving lava flows that enter populated areas with little time for warning or evacuatio...
