Ash-flow tuffs: Their origin, geologic relations, and identification
Clarence S. Ross, Robert L. Smith
1961, Professional Paper 366
Pyroclastic materials, which are interpreted as having been deposited by flowage as a suspension of ash in volcanic gas, are becoming widely recognized as major geologic episodes. These may be unconsolidated, indurated by partial welding, or welded into a compact rock. Many students are working on these materials and the...
