The 2008 eruption of the Chaitén Volcano, Chile: a preliminary report

On May 2, 2008 a Plinian eruption began on Chaiten volcano. Dome growing stage would have started on May 10-12 and extensive lahars and floods affected Chaiten town (ca. 5,000 inhabitants) on May 12. A volume up to ca. 4 km³ (non DRE) of rhyolitic magma would be extruded mostly during the explosive...
