Bridging the gap: 40Ar/39Ar dating of volcanic eruptions from the ‘Age of Discovery’ (2018)
Journal Article
Preece, K., Mark, D. F., Barclay, J., Cohen, B. E., Chamberlain, K. J., Jowitt, C., Vye-Brown, C., Brown, R. J., & Hamilton, S. (2018). Bridging the gap: 40Ar/39Ar dating of volcanic eruptions from the ‘Age of Discovery’. Geology, 46(12), 1035-1038. https://doi.org/10.1130/g45415.1

Many volcanoes worldwide still have poorly resolved eruption histories, with the date of the last eruption often undetermined. One such example is Ascension Island, where the timing of the last eruption, and consequently, the activity status of the v...

Evaluating the link between the sulphur-rich Laacher See volcanic eruption and the Younger Dryas climate anomaly (2018)
Journal Article
Baldini, J. U., Brown, R. J., & Mawdsley, N. (2018). Evaluating the link between the sulphur-rich Laacher See volcanic eruption and the Younger Dryas climate anomaly. Climate of the Past, 14(7), 969-990. https://doi.org/10.5194/cp-14-969-2018

The Younger Dryas is considered the archetypal millennial-scale climate change event, and identifying its cause is fundamental for thoroughly understanding climate systematics during deglaciations. However, the mechanisms responsible for its initiati... Read More about Evaluating the link between the sulphur-rich Laacher See volcanic eruption and the Younger Dryas climate anomaly.
