Short summary
We sampled pyroclastic fallout deposits from Hungary and from New Zealand in order to get the original water content of the quartz crystals. Our main results imply no significant change in water content of the quartz phenocrysts. All sampled crystal populations contain identical water contents in case of both the Bükk Foreland and the Kaharoa eruption. Thus, there may have been similar physicochemical conditions in the magmatic system just before the eruption.
