Computer-simulation models of scoria cone degradation in the Colima and Michoacan-Guanajuato volcanic fields, Mexico
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Se reporta la aplicación de un modelo computacional de diferencias finitas para simular el proceso de erosión en conos de ceniza, empleando un algoritmo lineal o no lineal basado en la ecuación de difusión. Este modelo es aplicado a la determinación de edades para los conos más antiguos de los campos volcánicos de Michoacán-Guanajuato y de Colima, México. Se obtienen edades de 100,000 años para Michoacán-Guanajuato y de 250,000 años para Colima. El modelo tridimensional puede simular la evolución erosional del Volcán Telcampana, Colima. Se discuten posibles efectos de cambio climático en la historia erosional.
