  1. Eruption Products and Processes and Posteruptive Geomorphic Evolution An Article Summary Kelsii Dana

  2. Overview • Crater Flat, S Nevada • Arid to semiarid climate • Basaltic volcanoes • Red Cone • Black Cone • Little Cones • SW Little Cone • NE Little Cone • Makani • Pleistocene age

  3. Data Collection

  4. Red Cone

  5. Black Cone

  8. Growth and Erosion

  9. Postemplacement Evolution Pyroclastic mounds that originate as rafted cone material

  10. Conclusions • Cinder cones formed by explosive processes • Lava fields developed • Thickening by unit stacking and inflation • Lateral expansion based on effusion and topography • Complex histories • Cone growth • Cone failure and deconstruction • Cone healing • Monogenetic • Posteruptive geomorphic evolution • Paleotopography
