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.

Volcanology and geochemistry of the Kaingaroa Ignimbrite, Taupo Volcanic Zone, New Zealand. [PDF]
The 0.23 Ma Kaingaroa Ignimbrite is a composite multiple flow-unit ignimbrite erupted from Reporoa Caldera, Taupo Volcanic Zone (TVZ), New Zealand. The Kaingaroa Ignimbrite has a complex internal stratigraphy with a complex basal tephra sequence of ...

Source of the Glencoe Ignimbrites [PDF]
IGNIMBRITES1,2 are a characteristic component of the typically post-orogenic basalt–andesite–rhyolite volcanic association. These pyroclastic deposits are now generally accepted2 as having been produced by eruptions of nuees ardentes in which solid particles, both rock and crystal fragments, glass shards and pumice fragments are suspended by turbulent ...

Rotliegend-Ignimbrite in der Prims-Mulde (Saar-Nahe-Senke/Südwestdeutschland)
Die oberrotliegenden rhyolithischen Tuffe der Prims-Mulde werden als Ignimbrite interpretiert. Sie sind maximal 110 m mächtig, gliedern sich durch wenige air-fall-Tuffe in mehrere Einheiten und können auf beiden Flanken der Prims-Mulde bis zu ca.

Zeolitization and feldspathization processes of the Campanian Ignimbrite, southern Italy
The Campanian Ignimbrite formed the Campi Flegrei caldera, located to the west of Naples, Italy, at about 39 ka. The dilute pyroclastic density current, which had an emplacement temperature above 580 ºC, surmounted high topography (over 1400 m) and ...

Ages on weathered Plio-Pleistocene tephra sequences, western North Island, New Zealand
Using the zircon fission-track method, we have obtained five ages on members of two strongly-weathered silicic, Pliocene-Pleistocene tephra sequences, the Kauroa and Hamilton Ash formations, in western North Island, New Zealand.
