“…Fluid escape SSD (dikes, pipes, plumes, pillars) can occur by escape of water accompanying phreatomagmatic eruptions (Nocita, 1988, -later reinterpreted as water-escape in fluvial deposits by McPherson et al (1989)), degassing of fresh pyroclasts (Gernon et al, 2008(Gernon et al, , 2009, burning underlying vegetation, or be due to thermal expansion (Branney and Kokelaar, 2002, p. 61-66, and references therein). Interestingly, the high deposition rates combined with possible fluidized state of the flow can trap gases in the deposits that subsequently escape as degassing pipes within seconds after deposition (Komorowski et al, 2013). These can occur as fines-depleted pipes, a few centimeters in length and diameter (Pistolesi et al, 2011;Smith and Kokelaar, 2013), or large decimeter-meter scale depressions at the surface of deposits (Charbonnier and Gertisser, 2008).…”
