The results of the morphometry are Summarized as follows: (1) Most of scoria cones are 200-600 m wide and 20-100 m high and their craters are 100-300 m wide and 10-50 m deep. (2) The relative heights of the pyroclastic cones are less than 0.3 of the basal widths. (3) Most of the crater widths of the pyroclastic cones are more than a quarter of the basal widths. (4) Si0_2 values of the fragments composing the scoria cones are mostly less than 57%, and those of other pyroclastic cones range from 50 to 75%. (5) Proportions of basal widths to relative heights have no correlation to Si0_2 values. (6) Most of the pyroclastic cones in Japan have been formed since a few ten thousand years ago. (7) The scoria cones mainly distributed along the coast of the Sea of Japan and on Izu-Bonin arc. The tuff cones mainly stand along the volcanic front of Tohoku arc., 金沢大学文学部地理学}, pages = {58--76}, title = {日本の火砕丘の地形計測}, volume = {3}, year = {1986} }
