Holocene record of large explosive eruptions from Chaitén and Michinmahuida Volcanoes, Chile
Tephra fall deposits and one large ignimbrite close to Chaitén and Michinmahuida Volcanoes were analyzed for chemistry and radiocarbon dated to correlate the eruptive units and establish the timing of eruptions.

Fall-units and Refractive Index Fluctuations of Eniwa-a Tephra Glass, Hokkaido, Japan
恵庭aテフラ(En-a,17ka BP)の火山ガラス屈折率は,試料採取地点によって異なることがある.その原因は,En-aはフォールユニットごとに火山ガラス屈折率が異なるからである.石狩低地帯南部では,En-aに少なくとも3つのフォールユニットが認められる.火山ガラス屈折率は,上位フォールユニットで高い値(n=1.510-1.514),中~下位フォールユニットで低い値(n=1.505-1.510)を示す.また,単一のフォールユニット内であっても,火山ガラス屈折率は層準によって若干異なる.なお,斜方輝石屈折率については,最下位層準でやや高い値(γ=1.713-1.716)を示すほかは,全層準を通じてほぼ一定の値(γ=1.710-1.715)であった.これまで,火山学やテフロクロノロジーの分野では ...

Probabilistic tephra fall hazard and risk assessment
A key goal of volcanology is accurate, quantitative forecasting of the potential hazard and risk associated with future volcanic events. Such assessments inform decision makers and enable emergency management plans and risk mitigation procedures, such as

The 1991 explosive eruption of Hudson volcano in Chile ejected about 2.7 km³ (DRE) of basalt and trachyandesite magma as tephra fall. A majority of the fallout occurred from an eruption during the period August 12-15, 1991, producing an extensive deposit

Unravelling upbuilding pedogenesis in tephra and loess sequences in New Zealand using tephrochronology [PDF]
The genesis of soils developed in either tephra or loess on stable sites differs markedly from that of soils developed on rock because classical topdown processes operate in conjuction with geological processes whereby material is added to the land ...
