to use the available new estimates
Mw(v) to build a PGA relationship that would give very similar results as model A. Due to the
more complicated relationship between Ci and Mw(v) in the acceleration case, a second order
polynomial was chosen as the functional form of h and thus through the least-squares method
we estimated the parameters b, c and d according to:
Ci = d·Mw2(v) + b·Mw(v) + c

the volcanic
plume due to their size and weight fall close to the volcano and constitute the
proximal deposit. Smaller particles can reach higher altitudes and persist in the
atmosphere for days and weeks and be advected far away by the wind. This
fraction of the pyroclastic material can possibly generate a distal deposit
very thin and covering wide areas.Term Size Ballistic d > 64 mm Lapilli 2 mm < d/volcanoes/volcanic-hazards/volcanic-emissions/

can be given by the low cost still flood risk adaptation by implementing early warning system. But
there is one more suggestion dfor stakeholders to restrict infrastructure in the cities of Horsens.
