Notes: S = simple flow consisting of a single lobe (flow unit), L = lobed consisting of multiple flow lobes. Y = present as a major component, — = cannot tell from the recovered core, N = not present, y = present as a minor component, m = massive (nonvesicular), v = vesicular, ah = subhorizontal, i = isotropic, av = subvertical (crystal or vesicle fabric), m/v = lava consisting of multiple lobes that have either massive or vesicular interiors. sv = segregation vesicles, mv = megavesicles, hvs = horizontal vesicle sheets (segregation veins), pv = pipe vesicles, vc = vesicle cylinders. ff = flow foliation, pf = crystal fabric (alignment of tabular and lath-shaped plagioclase phenocrysts and groundmass phases), vf = vesicle fabric: ah = aligned horizontal, r = random (isotropic), av = aligned vertical, t = trachytic texture.
