Cooling history and emplacement dynamics within rubbly lava flows, southern Deccan Traps: insights from textural variations and crystal size distributions

We analyse two representative rubbly pāhoehoe lavas (F3 and F5) from drill cores at Tural-Rajwadi, southwest of Koyna, in the southern Deccan Traps. Low vesicle deformation (0.1 to 0.4) indicates that both lavas ultimately cooled under a low-stress regime. The crystal size distributions (CSDs) of mo...
