The Los Chocoyos Ash, guatemala: A major stratigraphic marker in middle America and in three ocean basins
TL;DR: The Los Chocoyos Ash, having erupted from vents near the Lake Atitlan caldera, Guatemala, is perhaps the largest Quaternary silicic pyroclastic unit in Central America as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trace-element sanidine/glass distribution coefficients for peralkaline silicic rocks and their implications to peralkaline petrogenesis
TL;DR: Sanidine/glass distribution coefficients for 11 trace elements have been determined on six peralkaline and two subalkaline silicic rocks Distribution coefficients for Na, Sc, Fe, Cs, La, Ce, Sm, Tb and Lu from this study and the literature show little variation, within analytical uncertainty, for silicics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geochemistry of the andesite flank lavas of three composite cones within the Atitlán Cauldron, Guatemala
TL;DR: In this paper, three composite cones have grown on the southern edge of the previously existing Atitlan Cauldron, along the active volcanic axis of Guatemala, and their chemical compositions vary widely.
Book ChapterDOI
Quaternary Tephra of Northern Central America
William I. Rose,G. A. Hahn,John W. Drexler,M. L. Malinconico,M. L. Malinconico,P. S. Peterson,R Wunderman +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a variety of techniques to characterize silicic Plinian tephra units representing more than 30 Quaternary eruptions in Guatemala and El Salvador.
Journal ArticleDOI
Icelandite and aenigmatite-bearing pantellerite from the McDermitt caldera complex, Nevada-Oregon
TL;DR: The existence of a continuous series of rocks ranging from potassic icelandite to comendite and pantellerite is consistent with the derivation of the icelandites and ultimately of the voluminous peralkaline silicic rocks of the complex from mafic magma generated from upwelling mantle material.
