Response of Pumice-Rich Soils to Cyclic Loading
Soils containing pumice are frequently encountered on engineering projects in the North Island of New Zealand. The presence of pumice is known to... -
The late Pleistocene Sacarosa tephra-fall deposit, Misti Volcano, Arequipa, Peru: its magma, eruption, and implications for past and future activity
Between 38.5 ka cal BP and 32.4 ka cal BP, a dacitic Volcanic Explosivity Index 5 eruption at Misti volcano emplaced the Sacarosa tephra-fall...
