Where geology meets pedology: Late Quaternary tephras, loess, and paleosols in the Mamaku Plateau and Lake Rerewhakaaitu areas [PDF]
On this trip we focus on tephrostratigraphy and soil stratigraphy together with aspects of palaeoenvironmental reconstruction over long and short time-spans.

Revised calendar date for the Taupo eruption derived by ¹⁴C wiggle-matching using a New Zealand kauri ¹⁴C calibration data set [PDF]
Taupo volcano in central North Island, New Zealand, is the most frequently active and productive rhyolite volcano on Earth. Its latest explosive activity about 1800 years ago generated the spectacular Taupo eruption, the most violent eruption known in ...

Abstract Volcano monitoring requires identifying and distinguishing physico‐chemical processes at various depths within magma plumbing systems and their links to volcanic activity. Long‐term monitoring of deep magma reservoirs, extending down to tens of kilometers, is crucial even though signals from these depths are often altered or attenuated before ...

Natural and anthropogenic lead in sediments of the Rotorua lakes, New Zealand [PDF]
Global atmospheric sources of lead have increased more than 100-fold over the past century as a result of deforestation, coal combustion, ore smelting and leaded petroleum. Lead compounds generally accumulate in depositional areas across the globe where,

Arc-to-craton: Devonian air-fall tephras in the eastern United States [PDF]
ABSTRACT More than 100 air-fall volcanic tephra beds are currently documented from Devonian strata in the eastern United States. These beds act as key sources of various geological data. These include within-basin to basin-to-basin correlation, globally useful geochronologic age dates, and a relatively detailed, if incomplete, record of ...

Abstract Detrital sediments that accumulate downstream and are preserved in sedimentary rocks can allow characterization of geologic formations that are inaccessible for spatial or temporal reasons. However, mixing, sorting, and alteration of sediment during transport may complicate reconstruction of protolith characteristics.

Long‐term tephrostratigraphies of volcanic islands such as the Azores are often limited to young and incomplete subaerial records. Here, we present a Pleistocene‐Holocene marine tephra archive around the eastern islands of the Azores based on 22 marine ...

Tephrochronology: principles, functioning, application [PDF]
Tephrochronology is a unique method for linking and dating geological, palaeoecological, palaeoclimatic or archaeological sequences or events. The method relies firstly and fundamentally on stratigraphy and the law of superposition, which apply in any ...

Terrestrial Regulation of Lacustrine Hg Deposition During Glacial‐Interglacial Cycles
Abstract Mercury (Hg) is a toxic trace metal. It is clear that its natural cycle has been highly disturbed by human activities, but there remains much to understand about how it operated before these perturbations. For example, the influences of glacial‐interglacial climate changes on the geochemical cycle of environmental Hg remain poorly understood ...
