Residential Buildings and Occupant Vulnerability to Tephra Fall

open access: yes, 2005
Plinian and subplinian volcanic eruptions can be accompanied by tephra falls which may last hours or days, posing threats to people, buildings and economic activity. Numerous historical examples exist of tephra damage and tephra casualties.

Sensitivity and clay mineralogy of weathered tephra-derived soil materials in the Tauranga region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Soil sensitivity is defined as the ratio of peak to remoulded shear strength. Problem soil materials are those that show large strength losses on disruption, resulting in catastrophic failure, liquefaction and long run-out distances.

Age of the Rotoehu Ash. Comment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
Suggests that the article by Whitehead & Ditchburn (1994), although presenting useful new data on 230Th/232Th analyses, is flawed and misleading in suggesting that the Rotoiti Tephra is considerably younger than c.

Connecting with tephras: principles, functioning, and applications of tephrochronology in Quaternary science [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Tephrochronology is a unique method for linking and dating geological, palaeoecological, palaeoclimatic, or archaeological sequences or events. The method relies firstly on stratigraphy and the law of superposition, which apply in any study that connects

Changes of sub-fossil chironomid assemblages associated with volcanic sediment deposition in an Andean lake (38°S), Chile Cambios en las asociaciones sub-fósiles de quironómidos, producto de la depositación de sedimentos volcánicos en un lago andino (38°S), Chile

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2007
Chironomid assemblages and sedimentological parameters (grain size, organic content, mineralogy) of a short sediment core from Lake Galletué (38°41' S, 71°17' W) were analysed.

Morphology and formation of glassy volcanic ash from the August 12-15, 1991 eruption of Hudson Volcano, Chile

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Sedimentology and Basin Analysis, 2005
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
