The book presents current research into the effect that environmental conditions have on volcanic eruptions and the subsequent emplacement of volcanic products. This is accomplished through a series of chapters that investigate specific environments - both terrestrial and extraterrestrial - and the expression of volcanic materials found within those settings. Current state-of-the-art numerical, analytical and computer models are used in most chapters to provide robust, quantitative insights into how volcanoes behave in different environmental settings.

Reviews for Environmental Effects on Volcanic Eruptions
`Throughout the past four decades of solar system exploration, volcanologists have argued that looking at other worlds could reveal secrets about how volcanoes work on earth. This handsomely illustrated book is the first to fully realize that promise. By combining volcanic observations from all of NASA's missions with field studies of `exotic' terrestrial lavas, Zimbelman ... Read more
