      Despite their generally low volume fraction, Fesingle bondTi oxides have the potential to greatly influence the eruptive style because they lower the supersaturation pressure for heterogeneous bubble nucleation. Once nucleated, bubbles respond fast to pressure changes, fostering rapid expansion and explosive behavior. Yet, oxide microlite quantifications are often absent from data of explosive ...
