“…Probably, seismic activity related to the volcanic eruption, caused local slumping and the development of convolute-bedded intervals within the Rentabau Tuffs. Such seismic events may have triggered further volcaniclastic density currents by remobilisation of this unconsolidated sediment [Niem, 1977;Stow, 1994]. This unit comprises ~98 % pyroclasts and lacks any significant interbeds of hemipelagic sediment, indicating that deposition occurred contemporaneously with explosions, or rapidly following the eruption.…”

“…Layer 2 and its minor depositional units are similar in size-and compositional grading to many subaerial ash-flow deposits (Sparks et al 1973;Fisher 1979;Sheridan 1979;Wilson 1985) or the massive lower division of those subaqueous volcaniclastic mass-flow deposits (subaqueous "ash-flow" deposits) believed to have been generated directly from volcanic eruptions (Fiske and Matsuda 1964;Niem 1977;Carey and Sigurdsson 1980;Fisher 1984;Cousineau 1994). Traction structures, however, are more common, due presumably to coarse clast size and development of large shear stresses.…”
