Untangling the Nature and Timescales of Magmatic Processes Driving Eruptions at Quiescent Volcanoes: Examples from Momotombo, Nicaragua, and Cumbre Vieja, Canary Islands
Across all scales of human relationships (i.e. person-to-person, country-to-country, etc.), qualms can take the form of long-standing wars, quick and intense bouts, or petty exchanges. While our understanding of human behavior is ever increasing, reactions and behaviors of self and others may still...

Across all scales of human relationships (i.e. person-to-person, country-to-country, etc.), qualms can take the form of long-standing wars, quick and intense bouts, or petty exchanges. While our understanding of human behavior is ever increasing, reactions and behaviors of self and others may still come as a surprise. Expressions of disagreement can occur suddenly or following years to centuries of accumulated grievances. The solid earth is also a system that behaves (like human emotion) predictably at times and unpredictably at other times. Some volcanoes, a tangible surface expression of solid earth processes, exhibit precursory signals prior to eruption (e.g. the bulging of the Mt. St. Helens, edifice, USA), while others erupt violently without warning or time-sensitive signals (e.g. the phreatomagmatic eruptions at Mt. Ontake, Japan and Whakaari/White Island, New Zealand). Interpersonal human systems (at any scale) are complex beyond our current comprehension; yet, we work towards understanding each other and ourselves to minimize the negative impacts that come in association with fights, wars, and passive-aggressive spats.
