Newly identified ´a´ā lava flows outcrop intermittently over an area of ~110 km2 in the western Deccan Volcanic Province (DVP), India. They occur in the upper Thakurvadi Formation in the region south of Sangamner. The flows, one of which is compound,...

Palaeomagnetic techniques for estimating the emplacement temperatures of volcanic deposits have been applied to pyroclastic and volcaniclastic deposits in kimberlite pipes in southern Africa. Lithic clasts were sampled from a variety of lithofacies f... Read More about Emplacement temperatures of pyroclastic and volcaniclastic deposits in kimberlite pipes in southern Africa.

Impactoclastic density current emplacement of terrestrial meteorite-impact ejecta and the formation of dust pellets and accretionary lapilli: Evidence from Stac Fada, Scotland (2011)
Journal Article

We present an impactoclastic density current model for terrestrial meteorite impact ejecta emplacement that is based on a hitherto-unreported threefold sequence of lithofacies in the recently identified Stac Fada impact ejecta outflow blanket in Scot...
