Notes: ff = flow foliation, pf = crystal fabric (alignment of tabular and lath-shaped plagioclase phenocrysts and groundmass phases), vf = vesicle fabric. L = lobed consisting of multiple flow lobes (number in parenthesis indicates number of flow lobes), S = simple flow consisting of a single lobe (flow unit), — = cannot tell from the recovered core. Y = present as a major component, y = present as a minor component, N = not present. pv = pipe vesicles, vc = vesicle cylinders, mv = megavesicles, hvs = horizontal vesicle sheets (segregation veins).
