Earthquake Cycle Mechanics During Caldera Collapse: Simulating the 2018 Kı̄lauea Eruption
Josh Crozier,
Kyle R. Anderson
Abstract:In multiple observed caldera‐forming eruptions, the rock overlying a draining magma reservoir dropped downward along ring faults in sequences of discrete collapse earthquakes. These sequences are analogous to tectonic earthquake cycles and provide opportunities to examine fault mechanics and collapse eruption dynamics over multiple events. Collapse earthquake cycles have been studied with zero‐dimensional slider‐block models, but these do not account for the complicated interplay between fluid and elastic dyna… Show more
