The unifying theme is that the effects of volcanism on lacustrine sedimentation are diverse and distinctive, and that volcaniclastic lacustrine sediments hold the key to understanding a range of processes and events that cannot be readily addressed by the study of any non-volcanic lakes. Thirteen papers, with authors from nine countries ...

Primary volcaniclastic sediments were found in all four cores, echoing activity known to have occurred up to historical times on the adjacent islands. These preliminary results suggest that greater details of geological events could be inferred for other volcanic islands by adopting a similar approach to core analysis.

The pyroclastic and volcaniclastic units vary in color from dark gray, green and gray in the field and exhibit a variable thickness that are 1 m, 0.2 to 2.5 m and 0.3 m, respectively. The lowermost and the uppermost deposits are composed of fine ash, with accidental lithics of burnt travertine, aphyric green volcanic and quarzite that can reach ...

In some cases, reworked volcaniclastic deposits are better represented in the rock record than primary volcaniclastic deposits (O'Halloran and Gaul, 1997). The sedimentary processes operating within an active volcanic terrains are different compared with those of non-volcanic settings and cannot be adequately explained by the existing or ...

Volcaniclastic deposits that are directly related to sub-marine eruptions generally occur in the vicinity of their volcanic sources and their dispersal may be more restricted. Indirect volcaniclastic-sedimentation results from the reworking of previously deposited volcanic material. It occurs both during syn-eruptive and inter-eruptive periods.

This example of volcaniclastic sedimentation appears to be more relevant to Taranaki than the downwind hill country, due to a comparable near-coast depositional environment with changing sea-levels and hence changing stream gradients, and similar volcanic products, i.e. pyroclastic-flow and minor fallout deposits compared to the tephra ...

The term volcaniclastic encompasses a wide variety of rock types, all of which originate as a consequence of volcanic activity and consist essentially of volcanic ejectamenta. ...

Subaerial volcaniclastic deposits – influences of initiation mechanisms and transport behaviour on characteristics and distributions. J. Major. Geology, Environmental Science. 2022. Subaerial volcaniclastic deposits are produced principally by volcanic debris avalanches, pyroclastic density currents, lahars, and tephra falls.

Facies analysis of volcaniclastic aprons surrounding oceanic islands has led to the definition of several overlapping stages in the evolution of oceanic islands: 1) deep water …

The Val d'Aveto Formation (Northern Apennines, Italy; Elter et al., 1999) (Fig. 1) is a deep-water clastic fan, where volcanically-controlled sedimentation is abruptly superimposed onto a clastic prograding turbidite system (Di Capua et al., 2016a).Pyroclastic density current deposits are interbedded with other volcaniclastics, which have been …

A volcaniclastic sediment is a sediment (regardless of the average grain or clast size) composed primarily of debris of effusive igneous rocks (volcanic material). This volcanic material may be pyroclastic (fragments derived from explosive volcanism) or hyaloclastic (fragments formed by thermal shock when hot lava comes in contact with …

In their work, the authors describe three compositionally distinct lithofacies, deriving respectively from hemipelagic sedimentation and volcaniclastic processes (both primary and secondary) that either …

Abstract. The distinction between primary and secondary volcaniclastic deposits, which are currently defined as the "direct" products of volcanic eruptions and the "reworked" products of ...

1. Introduction. The effects of volcanism on sedimentation and the relationship between volcanism and tectonism have gained increasing interest from geoscientists during the last few decades (Manville et al., 2009a).A growing number of studies document the roles of volcanism in modifying the topography and drainage …

B E L O U S O V A Institute of Volcanic Geology and Geochemistry, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, 683006, Russia ABSTRACT On 2–3 January 1996 an explosive eruption discharging ≈ 106 kg s–1 of basaltic magma occurred in Karymskoye lake at an initial water depth of ≈ 50 m.

Abstract Volcaniclastic deposits are cynosures for reconstructing volcanic archives and evaluating the tectonic imprints of the study area. This paper presents an elaborate geological field litholog, petrography and geochemistry of ~1.2 km thick sequence of the quartz-feldspar porphyry (QFP) and rhyolites in the Kadiri–Hindupur section of the …

Summary: This volume presents a unique compendium of papers assessing the effects of volcanism on lakes, as recorded by the volcaniclastic sediments deposited within them. The unifying theme is that the effects of volcanism on lacustrine sedimentation are diverse and distinctive, and that volcaniclastic lacustrine sediments hold the key to …

The volcaniclastic sediments accumulated in proximal to medial distances on partly coalescing aprons, similar to volcanic ring plains, around at least three different stratovolcanoes. These volcanoes resulted from various eruptions separated by repose periods. During the first phase of the evolution of the Tepoztlán Formation (22·8 to 22·2 ...

Volcaniclastic refers to all clastic sediments composed mainly of particles of volcanic origin, regardless of how the sediment formed. Processes responsible for volcaniclastic sedimentation range from purely igneous on the one hand, to normal sedimentary processes on the other, with complex interaction of igneous and …

The Piton des Neiges (3070 m above sea level) occupies the north-western part of the island. Its activity started more than 2.4 My ago (McDougall 1971; Quidelleur et al. 2010; Smietana 2011) and stopped about 22 ka (Delibrias et al. 1986; Salvany et al. 2012).The inner part of the volcano is deeply incised by valleys and three major …

For all these volcaniclastic series, volcanism and sedimentation are reputedly coeval and zircon grains have been dated to obtained depositional ages. Nevertheless, among the five volcaniclastic series, only two provide U-Pb/zircon ages that are demonstrably representative of the sedimentation ages (Guandao Section, south …

Three sedimentary facies (F1-F2a, F2b) are recognized based on visual core logging, particle morphometric and geochemical analyses. F1 is clay-rich hemipelagite comprising homogeneous mud with mottled structures from bioturbation. F2a and F2b are both clay-poor volcaniclastic deposits, which are carbonate-rich and carbonate-poor, …

DISCUSSION Sedimentation Rates During the Volcanic Hiatus Interval. Sedimentation rates on the submarine volcaniclastic apron were minimal during the upper Miocene–lower Pliocene "volcanic hia- tus.". At Site 953, the average sedimentation rate during the hiatus in- terval is 35 m/m.y. (40 m/m.y at Site 954).
