Temporal and spatial evolution of a waxing then waning catastrophic density current revealed by chemical mapping (2014)
Journal Article
Williams, R., Branney, M. J., & Barry, T. L. (2014). Temporal and spatial evolution of a waxing then waning catastrophic density current revealed by chemical mapping. Geology, 42(2), 107-110. https://doi.org/10.1130/G34830.1

We reconstruct the behavior of a catastrophic sustained radial pyroclastic density current as it waxed then waned during its brief lifespan. By subdividing the deposit into 8 time slices using a chemical tracer, we show that the sustained current ini...
