Less well known is the May 18th eruption marked the beginning of a period of eruptive activity that lasted through 1986. From October 1980 through October 1986, a series of 17 dome-building episodes added millions of cubic meters of lava to the crater floor. Most of the growth occurred when magma extruded onto the surface of the dome, forming short (650 to 1,300 feet), thick (65 to 130 feet) lava flows. This data release is a 1-meter resolution digital elevation model (DEM) and a corresponding hillshade raster derived from a previously unpublished 1:2,000 scale topographic contour...

Subsequently, additional precipitates formed in the solute-rich samples (secondary precipitates) which were subsequently filtered in the lab with a 0.45 micron filter. Resulting residues were analyzed both in situ on the filter and after scraping. Samples were sputter coated with 10 nm Au, then imaged in a Tescan VEGA3 scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with an Oxford 150 mm2 X-MaxN large area energy dispersive spectrometer at the U.S. Geological Survey, Menlo Park, CA.

More recent volcanologic and petrologic studies in the San Juan region have focused mainly on several ignimbrite-caldera systems: the southeastern area (Platoro complex), western calderas (Uncompahgre-Silverton-Lake City), the central cluster (La Garita-Creede calderas). The northeast San Juan region that was far less studied until recently occupies a transition between earlier volcanism in central Colorado and the larger-volume younger ignimbrite-caldera foci...

Between May and September 2018, a total of 24 fissures opened, producing a lava flow field with an area of 36 km2. By the end of May, the eruption had focused at fissure 8, which produced the dominant lava flow of the eruption. This lava flow extended north from its vent in Leilani Estates and entered the ocean in Kapoho, reaching a total subaerial length of 13 km. This flow was active for about two months, from May 28 to August 4, followed by several weeks of weak vent...

Since the solute-rich samples continued to form precipitates, samples were filtered again immediately prior to analysis if needed. All samples were very rich in solutes and were analyzed at multiple dilutions (1:100 to 1:1000) to match instrument measurement ranges for various analytes. Water chemistry analyses were performed at the U.S. Geological Survey laboratories in Menlo Park, California. The concentrations of fluoride (F-), chloride (Cl-), sulfate (SO42-), and bromide (Br-) in samples were determined by ion chromatography with a Dionex ICS-2000, using a 250 mm Dionex IonPac AS18 column.

Sulfur isotopes were analyzed at the USGS laboratories in Reston, Virginia. For sulfur isotope ratio measurements, dissolved sulfate is converted to BaSO4, which is analyzed by conversion to sulfur dioxide with an elemental analyzer and subsequent analysis with a continuous flow isotope ratio mass spectrometer (Brenna, 1997). Samples are analyzed simultaneously with BaSO4 isotopic reference materials. No correction for oxygen isotopic composition is made to the reported sulfur isotope data. For...
