Examples of pyroclastic surge in the following topics:
-
- At some time in the night or early the next day, August 25, pyroclastic flows in the close vicinity of the volcano began.
- The remaining 62% of remains found at Pompeii were in the pyroclastic surge deposits, and thus were probably killed by them.
- But in 2010, studies indicated that during the fourth pyroclastic surge – the first surge to reach Pompeii – temperatures reached 572 °F.
-
- A pyroclastic flow of superheated gas and rock went west to the coast and the city of Herculaneum.
- Unlike the ash blanket of Pompei, in which organic material decomposed, the pyroclastic flow in Herculaneum petrified organic material, ensuring the preservation of human remains and wood, including the preservation of wooden screens, beds, and shelving.
- Many of the frescoes, mosaics, and other non-organic materials in both ash and pyroclastic flow were preserved until their excavation in the modern period.
-
- In the context of the Iraq War, the surge refers to United States President George W.
- Immediately following Bush's January 10 speech announcing the plan, Democratic politicians, including Ted Kennedy, Harry Reid, and Dennis Kucinich, called on Congress to reject the surge.

- The black and gray areas show the direction in which the wind blew the ash and pyroclastic clouds.
-
- Estrogen levels are highest right before the LH surge begins.
- Under the influence of the preovulatory LH surge, the first meiotic division of the oocytes is completed.
- The surge also initiates luteinization of theca and granulosa cells.
- Ovulation normally occurs 30 (± 2) hours after the beginning of the LH surge.
- This is known as a secondary estrogen surge.
-
- Antebellum American witnessed a surge in the number of denominations of Christianity.
- The surge was part of the cultural changes sweeping the nation.

-
- The hurricane caused severe destruction along the Gulf coast from central Florida to Texas, much of it due to the storm surge.
- The hurricane surge protection failures in New Orleans are considered the worst civil engineering disaster in U.S history.
- Because the storm surge produced by the hurricane's right-front quadrant (containing the strongest winds) was forecast to be 28 feet (8.5 m), emergency management officials in New Orleans feared that the storm surge could go over the tops of levees protecting the city, causing major flooding.
- By August 29, Katrina's storm surge caused 53 different levee breaches in greater New Orleans, submerging 8% of the city.
