Long description:

This book presents a summary of volcano geomorphology. It describes in detail volcanic landforms and related geomorphic processes.

It provides a review of the recent outcomes of new research topics in geomorphology and physical volcanology, e.g., an improved classification and understanding of volcanic landforms, either monogenetic or polygenetic. Such knowledge enables the understanding of processes and rates of growth and destruction of volcanic landforms and landscapes. It helps to get an overview of how to study volcanic landforms and processes in providing an updated review of a wide array of classical and modern methods.

Spatial distribution and tectonic setting of volcanoes.- Elementary volcanic landforms i: lava flows, lava lakes, and lava domes.- Elementary landforms and processes II: From simple, terrestrial landforms to hydroclastic, glaciovolcanic and underwater landforms.- Polygenetic landforms I: Shield volcanoes.- Polygenetic landforms II Composite cones: from individual constructs to clusters.- Calderas and caldera complexes.- Short-term degradation of active volcanoes.- Long-term degradation of volcanoes.- The role of geomorphology in assessing volcanic hazards.- Case study 1 Volcanic and geomorphic controls on the 2021 eruption of Tajogaite volcano, La Palma.- Methods and techniques for studying volcanic landforms.
