    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trimble_Knob

    Trimble Knob, located southwest of Monterey in Highland County, Virginia, is a conical hill composed of basalt, a volcanic rock, of Eocene (early Tertiary) age.It is the eroded remnant of what was an active volcano or diatreme that last erupted approximately 35 million years ago, making it one of the youngest volcanos on the east coast of North America.

  3. Volcano plot (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcano_plot_(statistics)

    A volcano plot is constructed by plotting the negative logarithm of the p value on the y axis (usually base 10). This results in data points with low p values (highly significant) appearing toward the top of the plot. The x axis is the logarithm of the fold change between the two conditions. The logarithm of the fold change is used so that ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_Mountain_(Virginia)

    The volcano is composed of alkali feldspar granitic rock of the Robertson River Igneous Suite.This includes felsic complex material such as biotite, hornblende-biotite, magnetite, and alkali granitic rock including rhyolite on the eastern slopes of Battle Mountain [5] and the adjacent (and geologically related) Little Battle Mountain (elevation 937 feet).

  5. Mole Hill (Virginia) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_Hill_(Virginia)

    The basalt at Mole Hill (and other igneous dikes in the area) was originally thought to be of Paleozoic age by relative age dating using cross-cutting relationships. [1] In 1969, Fullagar and Bottino used K-Ar and Rb-Sr radiometric dating techniques to date rocks that they thought were temporally related to the Devonian Tioga Bentonite, but discovered that the rocks were actually a much ...

    Volcano plot may refer to: . Sabatier principle - a concept in chemical catalysis that relates the optimal concentrations of catalysts and substrates; Volcano plot (statistics) - a type of graph used to relate fold-change to p-value that is commonly used in genomics and other omic experiments involving thousands of data-points
