Use of an empirical model in conjunction with data from the Chaos Jumbles rock avalanches constrain to first order their flow behavior, and provide a method to interpret rock/debris avalanche emplacement on Mars. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.
The density of lava that formed some recent Hawaiian basaltic lava flows was reported to change over the course of the eruption and change with distance from the vent.
It has been proposed that explosive volcanism may occur on Venus, despite high atmospheric pressure and extreme surface temperatures, in an effort to explain the variability of SO sub 2 concentrations observed at the Venus cloud tops.

Thematic Mapper measurements of the total radiant energy flux Q at Lascar volcano in north Chile for December 1984 are reported. The results are consistent with the earlier suggestion that a lava lake is the source of a reported thermal budget anomaly, and with values for 1985-1986 that are much lower, suggesting that fumarolic activity was then a more likely heat source. The results show that satellite remote sensing may be used to monitor the activity of a volcano quantitatively, in a way not possible by conventional ground studies, and may provide a method for predicting eruptions.
