About this document
Eifel Volcanism: Geology and Excursions by Christopher Betz is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document describes a virtual geology field trip to volcanic areas in the Eifel region of Germany, including descriptions of the Laacher See caldera and eruptions, deposits from pyroclastic flows and ash falls at various sites, and examples of phonolite and basalt lava flows. Unusual geological structures like a fold in unconsolidated tephra are examined and explained. The goal is to understand the volcanic history and eruptive processes that formed the landscapes in the Eifel.
