Challenges of determining frequency and magnitudes of explosive eruptions even with an unprecedented stratigraphy

Abstract Through decades of field studies and laboratory analyses, Volcán de Colima, Mexico has one of the best known proximal eruption stratigraphies of any volcano, yet the frequency and magnitudes of previous eruptions are still poorly resolved. Hazard assessments based on models of well-known, w...
