Grainsize characteristics of pre-eruptive, 2014 eruptive and post-eruptive lahar deposits in the Akagawa and Nigorigawa Rivers and around Ontake Volcano. a Sorting and mean grainsize of samples. b Sorting and c mean grainsize versus distance from the Jigokudani vents for samples of October 2014 rain-triggered and April 2015 ROS-triggered lahar deposits. Note that the samples from debris flow deposits represent grainsize less than cobble because of limitation of sampling of larger clasts at the field. d Percentage of clay in clay + silt + sand fractions in the October lahar deposits
