Dear Colleagues,
We would you like to announce the release of the second version of Q-LavHA (Quantum-Lava Hazard Assessment) (Mossoux et al., 2016).
Q-LavHA is a freeware plugin which simulates channelized ʻaʻā lava flow inundation probability from one or regularly distributed eruptive vents on a Digital Elevation Model. It combines existing probabilistic and 1D thermo-rheological deterministic models (Felpeto et al., 2001; Harris and Rowland, 2001) and proposes some improvements to calculate the probability of lava flow spatial propagation and terminal length.
Q-LavHA helps to simulate lava flows and to produce lava flow hazard maps. The plugin can be acquired after registration on the Q-LavHA website: http://we.vub.ac.be/e
We wish you good times with Q-LAVHA 2.0!
