Comparison between mass distribution profiles for total TSPs (solid lines) and initial TSPs (dashed lines) for k = 8 for a–e total TSP almost identical to initial TSP (type A), f–j total TSP with large mass fraction of particles segregating from a quasi-steady plume (type B), k–o total TSP with large mass fraction of particles segregating from a fading explosive plume or repeated explosive plumes, and p–t total TSP with characteristics of types B and C. The y-axis is the segregation height with intervals of 0.5 km
