High-resolution stalagmite stratigraphy supports the Late Holocene tephrochronology of southernmost Patagonia

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2022
South Patagonian speleothems yield chemical volcanogenic signals and tephra, which can be used to date regional volcanic eruptions and correlate them with the existing tephrochronology, according to geochemical analyses and micro-/nanoscale observations.

Radiocarbon Dating and Tephrochronology in Kamchatka [PDF]

open access: yesRadiocarbon, 1993
We discuss results of 14C dates obtained from areas of young volcanoes in Kamchatka. We apply these dates to reconstructing regional volcanic activity during the Holocene.

Smoking guns and volcanic ash: the importance of sparse tephras in Greenland ice cores

open access: yesPolar Research, 2020
Volcanic ash (fine-grained tephra) within Greenland ice cores can complement the understanding of past volcanism and its environmental and societal impacts.

Tephrochronology and Provenance of an Early Pleistocene (Calabrian) Tephra From IODP Expedition 374 Site U1524, Ross Sea (Antarctica)

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
We present a full characterization of a 20 cm‐thick tephra layer found intercalated in the marine sediments recovered at Site U1524 during International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 374, in the Ross Sea, Antarctica.

The Medial Offshore Record of Explosive Volcanism Along the Central to Eastern Aegean Volcanic Arc: 2. Tephra Ages and Volumes, Eruption Magnitudes and Marine Sedimentation Rate Variations

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
We use the tephrostratigraphic framework along the Aegean Volcanic Arc established in Part 1 of this contribution to determine hemipelagic sedimentation rates, calculate new tephra ages, and constrain the minimum magnitudes of (sub)plinian eruptions of ...

Probabilistic Source Classification of Large Tephra Producing Eruptions Using Supervised Machine Learning: An Example From the Alaska‐Aleutian Arc

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Alaska contains over 130 volcanoes and volcanic fields that have been active within the last 2 million years. Of these, roughly 90 have erupted during the Holocene, with many characterized by at least one large explosive eruption.

Chronological Assessment of the Balta Alba Kurgan Loess-Paleosol Section (Romania) – A Comparative Study on Different Dating Methods for a Robust and Precise Age Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Loess-paleosol sequences (LPSs) are important terrestrial archives of paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic information. One of the main obstacles for the investigation and interpretation of these archives is the uncertainty of their age-depth ...

Holocene carbon accumulation in the peatlands of northern Scotland [PDF]

open access: yesMires and Peat, 2018
The response of peatland carbon accumulation to climate can be complex, with internal feedbacks and processes that can dampen or amplify responses to external forcing.

Hiroshi Machida −respected tephrochronologist, teacher, leader [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Professor Emeritus Hiroshi Machida (Hiroshi hereafter) is the leading tephrochronologist of his generation in Japan. Perhaps more than any other geoscientist from Japan, Hiroshi carried the insights and advances of tephra studies and their application in
