Perhaps the most extensive of all the subaerial basaltic plateaus existed during the Paleogene and possibly extended over of the northern Atlantic Ocean region.
33.
When calving occurs due to waterline melting, only the subaerial part of the glacier will calve, leaving a submerged'foot '.
34.
The deeply weathered paleosol developed in the Cardenas Basalt represents an extended period of subaerial weathering prior to the deposition of the Nankoweap Formation.

The oldest volcanic activity occurred 2.74 ?0.06 million years ago at Brandenburger Bluff and involved subglacial and subaerial phreatomagmatic activity.

Eruptions of volcanoes into air are termed " subaerial ", whereas those occurring underneath the ocean are termed " submarine ".
37.
Basalt in the tops of subaerial lava flows and cinder cones will often be highly vesiculated, imparting a lightweight " frothy " texture to the rock.
38.
As a type of asexual propagation, these subaerial stolons, also called " runners ", often develop roots and leaves from their nodes.
