Detection of Tephra Layers in Antarctic Sediment Cores with Hyperspectral Imaging.
Tephrochronology uses recognizable volcanic ash layers (from airborne pyroclastic deposits, or tephras) in geological strata to set unique time references for paleoenvironmental events across wide geographic areas. This involves the detection of tephra layers which sometimes are not evident to the n...
