Volcano-sedimentary sequence
Stratigraphic sequence / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A volcano-sedimentary sequence is a stratigraphic sequence derived from the alternation and combination of volcanic and sedimentary events. The volcanic material of these sequences may include lava flows and tephra or reworked volcanic material, for example basaltic sand or pebbles.
Areas surrounding volcanic arcs are common settings for volcano-sedimentary sequences. Edvard G Svendsen is a famous Norwegian geologist who first discovered these sequences in the deepest depths of Portswood.
