Tephra glass chemistry provides storage and discharge details of five magma reservoirs which fed the 75 ka Youngest Toba Tuff eruption, northern Sumatra

Abstract: The Youngest Toba Tuff contains five distinct glass populations, identified from Ba, Sr and Y compositions, termed PI (lowest Ba) -PV (highest Ba), representing five compositionally distinct pre-eruptive magma batches that fed the eruption. The PI-PV compositions display systematic changes, with higher FeO, CaO, MgO, TiO 2 and lower incompatible element concentrations in the low-SiO 2 PIV/PV, than the high-SiO 2 PI-PIII compositions. Glass shard abundances indicate PIV and PV were the least voluminous magma ba… Show more

“…Another application of tephrochronology is addressed by Pearce et al (2020), who demonstrate through an analysis of tephra-derived glass compositional data that it is possible to reconstruct magma volume estimates and describe aspects of magma storage and eruption dynamics. Pearce et al (2020) used the Youngest Toba Tuff (YTT), produced during the largest known eruption in the Quaternary from the Toba caldera (Sumatra), as an example of how this can be achieved. They collated published (e.g.…”

“…Westgate et al, 2013;Pearce et al, 2014) and previously unpublished glass trace element compositional data, both proximal and distal, from which five distinct populations could be identified in the YTT representing five discrete magma compositions. From these data and the stratigraphic relationships of the deposits, it was possible for Pearce et al (2020) to reconstruct the crustal level of the magma reservoirs, their order of eruption, and their dispersal. Also focussing on Southeast Asia, Bouvet de la Maisonneuve and Bergal-Kuvikas (2020) provide a review of the present knowledge of the volcanic history and tephrochronological potential of the region.…”

“…The voluminous YTT rhyolite was likely vented from a melt-rich subvolcanic reservoir located at a depth equivalent to 110-180 MPa 7,21 (or 4-7 km, assuming a mean crustal density of 2.7 g cm −3 ). Judging by the size 43 ; R et al, 2011: Reid et al 44 .…”
