Modeling Lahars on a Poorly Eroded Basaltic Shield: Karthala Volcano, Grande Comore Island
Lahars impose significant secondary hazards on highly populated volcanic islands by remobilizing volcanic ash deposits. Karthala, on Grande Comore Island, is a relatively young and poorly eroded basaltic shield volcano with sporadic occurrence of ash-forming phreatic eruptions. In 2005, two mildly e...
