Size-distribution of scoria cones within the Eğrikuyu Monogenetic Field (Central Anatolia, Turkey)

26 May 2018 | Contributor(s): Göksu USLULAR, Gonca Kuşcu, Arda Arcasoy

Eğrikuyu Monogenetic Field (EMF) is one of the five clusters of monogenetic volcanoes in Quaternary Central Anatolian Volcanic Province (CAVP). EMF consists mainly of scoria cones and a few maars (e.g. Kutören, Obruk). Previous studies on monogenetic volcanoes of CAVP mainly focused on...

A new method to identify the vent location of tephra fall deposits based on thickness or maximum clast size measurements (SVL)

17 Apr 2018 | Contributor(s): Qingyuan Yang, Marcus I Bursik, E Bruce Pitman

This tool presents a new method to identify the vent location of tephra fall deposits based on thickness or maximum clast size measurements. It is temporarily named "svl", which is short for Source Vent Locator. The method estimates the vent location by coupling semi-empirical models...
