- Tuff - Wikipedia
Particles of volcanic ash that are sufficiently hot will weld together after settling to the surface, producing a welded tuff Welding requires temperatures in excess of 600 °C (1,100 °F)
- Tuff Rock | Properties, Formation, Uses - Geology Science
Welded tuff is a pyroclastic rock that was sufficiently hot at the time of deposition to weld together If the rock contains scattered, pea-sized fragments or fiamme in it, it is generally called a welded lapilli-tuff
- What is Tuff, Its Composition, Formation, and Uses?
If deposited volcanic ash is hot enough, usually more than 600 °C (1,112 °F), it may sinter or fuse, forming a welded tuff Such welded rocks are common in rhyolitic volcanic ash deposits but can occur in other types
- Tuff - an igneous rock of explosive volcanic eruptions.
The rock formed from this hot ejecta is known as a "welded tuff" - because the ejected particles are welded together Some deposits might contain welded tuff near the vent and unwelded tuff at a distance where smaller, cooler particles fell to the ground

- Influence of the Welding Degree on the Strength and Failure Modes of Tuff
Welded tuffs are one of the most important types of volcanic clastic rocks, which are mostly formed by the accumulation of volcanic debris flows from intense volcanic eruptions
- Lapillistone - ALEX STREKEISEN
Most lapilli tuffs which remain in ancient terrains are formed by the accumulation and welding of semi-molten lapilli into what is known as a welded tuff The heat of the newly-deposited volcanic pile tends to cause the semi-molten material to flatten out as they become welded
