A wall of superheated gas, rock, and ash broke loose from Mayon Volcano’s summit on May 2, 2026, and tore roughly five kilometers down its southeastern slopes in minutes. The pyroclastic flow ...

Pyroclastic flows from Mayon Volcano surged 4 kilometers down the Mi-isi Gully in late May 2026, marking the farthest runout since the current eruptive episode began. Sulfur dioxide emissions spiked ...

Scientists think they’ve figured out how pyroclastic flows, fast-moving bringers of death during volcanic events, can travel such incredible distances and speeds despite the friction between the ...

Avalanches of ash, gas and rock that cascade downhill during volcanic eruptions may be even more dangerous than scientists had realized. Pulses of high pressure form within these slides, known as ...

A pyroclastic flow (also known as a pyroclastic density current or a pyroclastic cloud) is a fast-moving current of hot gas and volcanic matter (collectively known as tephra) that flows along the ...

In the video, I talked about how 'Sapporo Soft Stone, used in Sapporo's stone buildings, was born from the eruption of the ...
