Volcanic ash aggregation information


Volcanic ash aggregates (accretionary lapilli) in ignimbrite from the Oruanui eruption of Taupo volcano, New Zealand.

Volcanic ash aggregation occurs when particles of volcanic ash collide and stick together during transport. This process modifies the size distribution of airborne particles, which affects both atmospheric dispersal and fallout patterns on the ground. Aggregation also impacts the dynamics of volcanic plumes, pyroclastic density currents, and their associated hazards.
