Tephra data for Inyo domes, California
Data on tephra thicknesses for the Inyo eruptions from Miller (1985) and Bursik and Sieh (2013) are combined to produce revised isopach maps for the South Deadman vent, Obsidian Flow vent, and Glass Creek vent. Volumes are calculated for the four sets of isopachs, and the total tephra volume is calculated to be 0.21 cubic km. The Miller (1985) data are obtained from field maps and notebooks, and the Bursik and Sieh (2013) data are extracted from Keyhole Markup Language files (.kml).
