When the tephra sample is very happy to be blasted by a laser! What trace elements will it hold.

Just some pretty tephra from Süphan volcano found in Lake Van, eastern Turkey 🌋 volcanic snowflakes, not one the same

This paper would not of been possible without the help of my co-authors! Combining our data together will now help everyone who works on tephra layers in this region!

Now there is over 1,000 new single glass data for tephra layers from Nemrut and Süphan. Major and trace elements!

We make new correlations to dated proximal tephra outcrops of Nemrut to the V-layers of the Lake Van core! Plus new understanding on the timing and order of many confusing outcrops around the lake

Some tephra-tastic news for February! New glass geochemistry of visible tephra layers from Lake Van are finally published!!! 👇

Snowy Süphan in the sunset.

Some inspiration to get the response to reviewer comments done on the Lake Van paper. It is a biggen but it’s a goody.

The top of Nemrut in eastern Turkey. The crater was formed ~32,000 years ago with a big bang! 🌋
