Morphology and dynamics of inflated subaqueous basaltic lava flows by Anne Deschamps, Cécile Grigné, Morgane Le Saout, Samuel Adam Soule, Pascal Allemand, Brigitte Van Vliet‐Lanoe, France Floc'h

“…Their height is 2–3 times smaller and their length being 10–15 times shorter. Based on heat diffusion equation, we demonstrate that more efficient cooling of a lava flow in water leads to the rapid development of thicker (by 25%) cooled layer at the flow surface, which has greater yield strength to counteract its internal hydrostatic pressure than in subaerial environments, thus limiting lava breakouts to form new lobes, hence promoting inflation. …”
