Ignimbrite Analyses of Batur Caldera, Bali, based on 14C Dating [PDF]
http://dx.doi.org/10.17014/ijog.vol4no3.20094The Batur Caldera, in the northeastern part of Bali Island, is an elliptical collapse structure 13.8 by 10 km in size and another circular composite collapse structure with a diameter of 7.5 km in its centre ...

Large ignimbrites are the product of devastating explosive eruptions that have repeatedly impacted climate and life on global scale. The assemblage of vertical and lateral lithofacies variations within an ignimbrite sheet, its internal architecture, may ...

Reconstructing the plinian and co-ignimbrite sources of large volcanic eruptions: A novel approach for the Campanian Ignimbrite [PDF]
AbstractThe 39 ka Campanian Ignimbrite (CI) super-eruption was the largest volcanic eruption of the past 200 ka in Europe. Tephra deposits indicate two distinct plume forming phases, Plinian and co-ignimbrite, characteristic of many caldera-forming eruptions.

Landscape evolution in ignimbrite terrain : a study of the Mamaku Plateau, Taupō Volcanic Zone, New Zealand. [PDF]
Landscape evolution in ignimbrite terrains is complex due to the diverse, heterogeneous nature of ignimbrite deposits. Globally, little landscape evolution research has been conducted on ignimbrite terrains, especially multi-ignimbrite systems.

Reconciling complex stratigraphic frameworks reveals temporally and geographically variable depositional patterns of the Campanian Ignimbrite [PDF]
The 39.8-ka Campanian Ignimbrite was emplaced during a large caldera-forming eruption of Campi Flegrei near Naples, Italy. The ignimbrite is found up to 80 km from the caldera, and co-ignimbrite ash-fall deposits occur 3200 km away.

The Aso-4 caldera-forming event (86.4 ± 1.1 ka, VEI-8) is the second largest volcanic eruption Earth experienced in the past 100 ka. The ignimbrite sheets produced during this event are some of the first ever described compositionally zoned pyroclastic ...

The incrementally zoned Miocene Ayagaures ignimbrite (Gran Canaria, Canary Islands) [PDF]
The 20–25 m thick trachyphonolitic Ayagaures ignimbrite cooling unit [(AY); 11.8 Ma] exposed over 250 km2 (onshore volume ca. 4.5 km3 DRE) is the uppermost and most voluminous cooling unit of the Middle Fataga Formation (MFF), part of the Fataga Group ...

Properties of the Ignimbrites in the Architecture of the Historical Center of Arequipa, Peru
The petrographic and petrophysical characteristics of three varieties of ignimbrites used in the architectural heritage of Arequipa (southwest Peru) are analyzed. The modal classification QAFP and TAS diagram discriminate their dacitic nature.

The Xáltipan ignimbrite records the largest single-eruption of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt up to date (≥344 km3 uncompacted volume). As most large ignimbrites, this ignimbrite presents common challenges when mapping.

Units with extremely variable erodibility are typical in the succession of pyroclastic-dominated volcanic fields. Welded ignimbrites are usually resistant to erosion, thus, they often appear as positive landforms, i.e., mesas or tilted plateaus after ...
