Research Abstract |
The shapes of dikes intruding the layered host rock of Miyakejima and Reunion Island are examined by the field observations. Structural difference between feeder and non-feeder dikes are revealed. Numerical FEM simulations indicate that the variation of dike thickness observed in Miyakejima and Piton de la Fournaise can be broadly explained in terms of layer-stiffness differences of one or two orders of magnitude. Based on the results, the effects of the dike propagation process controlled by the host rock structure on the location and process of fissure eruptions are evaluated.
