Present day and paleo-geographic coordinates, thicknesses and isopach area of the Early Eocene +19 ash layer (Table 1) ...

23 layers of altered volcanic ash (bentonites) originating from the North Atlantic Igneous Province have been recorded in early Eocene deposits of the Austrian Alps, about 1,900 km away from the source area. The Austrian bentonites are distal equivalents of the ''main ash-phase''...
