Exempel på lahar

• That confusion aside, any newcomer to a science faces a lahar (p. 172) of jargon, rarely glossarized and one that swiftly buries the unfortunate student.

• Examples include avalanches, haboobs, seafloor turbidity currents, lahars, pyroclastic flows, and lava flows.

• Melting snow and ice, intense rainfall or the breakout of a summit crater lake can all generate lahars.

• A lahar's viscosity decreases with time, and can be further thinned by rain, but it nevertheless solidifies quickly when coming to a stop.

• The lahar and flood destroyed six mostly not-yet-occupied summer ranch houses.

• Large volcano-associated debris flows known as lahars pose a threat to populated areas downstream from glaciated volcanoes.

• A lahar can cause fatalities years after its precipitating eruption.

• Lahars have the consistency, viscosity and approximate density of concrete: fluid when moving, solid at rest.

• Because of this, computer programs would be able to identify the approaching information and activate an automatic notice when a large lahar is identified.

• This meltwater mix means that subglacial eruptions often generate dangerous jkulhlaups (floods) and lahars.

• Lava flows could sometimes melt down ice and glaciers that accumulated on the volcano's crater, creating massive lahar flows.

• The lahars had left behind a gray mass which covered the entire town.

• This is the same mechanism that caused the 1953 lahar.

• It's estimated that it can only take 30% water to initiate ash into a lahar.

• Historical eruptions typically have produced lahars, lava flows, and ashfalls.
