Unified Scaling Law for Lengths of Basaltic Lava Flows: Dependence on Erupted Volume and Effusion Rate

Unified Scaling Law for Lengths of Basaltic Lava Flows: Dependence on Erupted Volume and Effusion Rate

Abstract Morphological scaling laws for basaltic lava flows, linking flow dimensions and eruption conditions, are essential for hazard assessment and geological analysis of basaltic eruptions. However, the governing factors influencing flow dimensions remain unclear. We developed a scaling law for l...
