The June 2018 eruption of Fuego volcano: chronology, deposits, impacts, associated hazards and risks\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The June 3rd, 2018, eruption of Fuego volcano (Guatemala) produced a complex sequence of small-volume pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) that inundated all sectors around the volcano and propagated >12 km on the southeastern flank, deposited ~50 million m3 of pyroclastic material, and killed several hundred people. This one-day field trip will allow participants to revisit this important eruptive event by exploring several exposed stratigraphic sections of the June 2018 deposits inside the Las Lajas barranca, as well as various infrastructures affected by the eruption on the southeastern flank of the volcano. Participants will also learn about the various impacts this eruption caused on local communities, as well as how hazard assessment and risk management plans at Fuego were refined after this event.<\/p>\r\n

La erupci\u00f3n del volc\u00e1n de Fuego (Guatemala) del 3 de junio de 2018 produjo una secuencia compleja de corrientes de densidad pirocl\u00e1stica (PDCs) de peque\u00f1o volumen que inundaron todos los sectores alrededor del volc\u00e1n y se propagaron >12 km en el flanco sureste, depositando ~50 millones de m3 de material pirocl\u00e1stico y mat\u00f3 a varios cientos de personas. Esta excursi\u00f3n de un d\u00eda permitir\u00e1 a los participantes volver a visitar este importante evento eruptivo explorando varias secciones estratigr\u00e1ficas expuestas de los dep\u00f3sitos de junio de 2018 dentro de la barranca de Las Lajas, as\u00ed como varias infraestructuras afectadas por la erupci\u00f3n en el flanco sureste del volc\u00e1n. Los participantes tambi\u00e9n aprender\u00e1n sobre los diversos impactos que esta erupci\u00f3n caus\u00f3 en las comunidades locales, as\u00ed como tambi\u00e9n c\u00f3mo se perfeccionaron los planes de evaluaci\u00f3n de peligros y gesti\u00f3n de riesgos en Fuego despu\u00e9s de este evento.<\/p>\r\n
