Relation between the magma chamber pressure and discharge rate demonstrating an effect of loading by a lava dome. Parameters used for the calculations are R c = 16 m, T = 980°C, n0 = 4.0 wt%, L = 6 km, ω = 3.8, E w = 0. The pressure at the vent for cases without a lava dome (i), and with a dome of 100 m high (ii), are atmospheric and 2.5 MPa, respectively.
