STRATIGRAPHIC RELATIONS OF THE 1815
DEPOSITS
Two major eruptive phases
First : the sequence begins with four widespread fall
layers (F1, F2, F3, F4)
Second : two major eruptive phases (S-1, PF-1)
Pyroclastic fall deposites of Tambora
F1, minor phreatomagmatic fall deposits during weak
explosions
F2, a plinian pumice-fall from an eruption column (35 km)
F3, a series of minor phreato-magmatic ash-falls from low
level activity
F4, the major plinian pumice fall from the great explosion
(43 km eruption column)
Pyroclastic flow deposites of Tambora
The lower most flow unit is a dark-gray, massive
pyroclastic flow, with black scoriae and bread-crust blocks
up to 1 m in diameter in a sandy-silty matrix
The third pyroclastic lobe extends northwestward from
Doro Petie along the coast to Wontu Wa
Pyroclastic flow deposites of Tambora
Conclusions
Sudden transition to pyroclastic flow and surge activity
during the second plinian eruption occurred on 10 April
1815 and is tentatively attributed to increase mass
eruption rate as summit collapse and early caldera
formation resulted in widening vent and possible
formation of new vents
