- W3118397256 abstract "Abstract Basaltic tuyas are glaciovolcanoes that form when substantial focused eruptions take place beneath thick ice. None have been witnessed, so models reconstructing tuya formation are grounded in detailed fieldwork. A key feature of many basaltic tuyas is the presence of volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks that indicate the sustained presence of an encircling meltwater lake during the eruption. Here we provide the first description of Þorolfsfell (Thorolfsfell), a basaltic tuya from Iceland, which is sufficiently distinct from previously described tuyas to be considered a new type of basaltic glaciovolcano. Thorolfsfell is an asymmetric tuya with an area of c.8 km2, base-to-top height of c.450 m, and volume of c.2.2 ± 0.4 km3 that has been emplaced onto the approximately 12o sloping lower southern flanks of Tindfjallajokull central volcano. Thorolfsfell shares only two major morphological characteristics with other basaltic tuyas: (1) a sub-horizontal top comprising subaerial lavas; (2) a clear vertical topographic expression, which reflects preferential upwards edifice growth due to lateral confinement by encircling ice and/or meltwater. There is no evidence for the presence of a large and long-lived syn-eruptive meltwater lake. The Thorolfsfell eruption is effusion-dominated, and there is a gradual reduction in cooling fractures in lavas with elevation. The eruption is divided into three Stages. Stage I forms a c.110 m thick drape onto an irregular but persistently c.12o dipping basement of older basaltic tuffs; Stage I consists of palaeoslope-parallel lava lobes with abundant cooling fractures, accompanied by abundant breccias. Stage II comprises a c.240 m thick stack of c.12o dipping stacked lava lobes with abundant cooling fractures, and occasional autobreccias. Stage III is c.110 m thick, and whilst early lavas have cooling fractures, the final Stage III lavas are sub-horizontal, subaerial pahoehoe lava flows. Our model for the formation of Thorolfsfell has two key features. The first is that the inclined basement has facilitated the downslope movement of meltwater away from the eruption site into an efficient gravity-assisted subglacial meltwater drainage system. The second is that there is a close connection between the vertical growth of the tuya and the ice above, with each successive lava in the growing stack being close to and/or in contact with the overlying ice. This repeated process provides the regular (but transient) meltwater supply necessary to produce a c.350 m stack of similarly-cooled lava carapaces. From a hazards perspective, a Thorolfsfell-style eruption is of little concern as rapid and steady meltwater drainage away from the eruption site would prevent the high-magnitude glacial outburst floods that require accumulated meltwater. The Thorolfsfell eruption provides a new perspective on effective meltwater dispersal away from tuya-building eruptions on dipping palaeoslopes, and on lava-ice interactions during subglacial eruptions. The products of other subglacial eruptions onto dipping basements, producing Thorolfsfell-type tuyas, await study. This first description of a new type of basaltic glaciovolcano may aid in the identification and interpretation of similar glaciovolcanoes on Earth and Mars that have yet to be discovered." @default.
