Abstract: Abstract The late Pleistocene trachytic Campanian Ignimbrite (>300 km3 DRE, ca. 39 ka) covers the Campanian Plain (Italy) around Naples. It is found behind ridges >1000 m high at 80 km from the source in the Campi Flegrei caldera.… read more here.

Abstract: Large ignimbrites are the product of devastating explosive eruptions that have repeatedly impacted climate and life on global scale. The assemblage of vertical and lateral lithofacies variations within an ignimbrite sheet, its internal architecture, may… read more here.
