We determined K-Ar ages and whole-rock chemistry for volcanic rocks from Azumaya volcano and the surrounding area of central Japan, in order to reexamine its volcanic history. Based on our chronological and petrological study, coupled with previous geological data, we reconstructed the volcanic history of the volcano.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
