Actualistic plate-tectonic models are the best framework within which to understand the tectonics of sedimentary basins. Sedimentary basins develop in divergent, intraplate, convergent, transform, hy...

In this chapter we are concerned with underwater volcaniclastic eruptions and products, as well as pyroclastic flows and debris generated on land and transported by mass flowage into the sea. Submarine fallout deposits derived from land-based eruptions are treated in Chapter 7. Clastic materials redistributed as mass flows or turbidity currents ...

Volcaniclastic deposits form by various processes of volcanic and sedimentary nature, comprising a range of particles that underwent diverse fragmentation, transport, and depositional...

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 …

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, …

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

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 …

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 …

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 …

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.

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 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 ...

The volcaniclastic sediments and rocks contain solely and primarily of more than 25% of the ingredients of volcanic origin in the form of fragments of volcanic rock, volcanic glass, and volcanic ash. The primary source materials are ejected by volcanic eruptions and transported by air, water, or pyroclastic flows to the place where it would deposited on …

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.
