Figure 7.5. The evolution <strong>of</strong> clast size distribution with progressive thermal<br />
exposure. A) A fabricated CSD with D s = 3, T c = 650°C and subjected to T i =<br />
900°C, 34% magma: small clast populations quickly melt, evolving from a fractal<br />
to non-fractal distribution <strong>of</strong> clast sizes. B) CSD results from chosen time steps<br />
from the outcrop model used in Figure 7.3; T i = 900°C, T c = 650°C.<br />
