What is Welding Effects in Rhyolitic Tuff Experiments about?

The document summarizes an experimental study on the welding of rhyolitic ash from the Rattlesnake Tuff. Experiments were conducted at atmospheric pressure from 600-1200°C and at 5 MPa and 600°C while varying run time and water content. The 5 MPa experiments most closely matched textures in natural welded samples. Both compaction and viscous deformation contributed to densification and welding. A few tenths of a percent of water promoted welding by lowering glass viscosity, while more water inhibited weldin
