Vesicular magma is permeable
Klug et al. (2002)
Connections between bubbles allow gases to escape from magma Permeability depends on vesicularity and bubble size

Are deformation rates high enough to fragment ascending magma?
we will refer to this brecciation

Three key processes
1) Nucleation (forming new) and growth of bubbles 2) Outgassing (loss of gas from the magma) 3) Fragmentation and brecciation (breaking magma into
pieces)
Approach 1. Lab experiments and theoretical models to study individual processes and properties 2. Computer simulations 3. Test models with measurements made on rocks
