Compositional Data Analysis (CoDA) of Clinopyroxene From Abyssal Peridotites
We analyze a large database of abyssal peridotite clinopyroxene compositions using log‐ratio transformation, principal component analysis (PCA) and k‐means clustering, to better understand clinopyroxene compositional systematics in abyssal peridotites ...

Nanoscale solid-fluid interaction and amphibole formation in the lithospheric mantle [PDF]
Nanoscale amphibole nucleation and growth in the Earth’s mantle is poorly understood despite its important role in the evolution and stability of the lithosphere, along with its influence on the coexisting fluid composition.

Constraining the pre-eruptive processes that modulate the chemical evolution of erupted magmas is a challenge. An opportunity to investigate this issue is offered by the interrogation of the crystals carried in lavas.

PHYSICO-CHEMICAL CONDITIONS OF CRYSTALLIZATION OF MINERALS-PHENOCRYSTS IN BASALTIC COMPLEXES HOSTING MASSIVE SULFIDE DEPOSITS OF THE URALS AND SIBERIA [PDF]
The paper discusses the physico-chemical formation conditions of minerals-phenocrysts in basaltic complexes, which host massive sulfide deposits of the Urals and Siberia. It is found as a result of study of melt inclusions that clinopyroxene from basalts

Environmental Effects of Volcanic Volatile Fluxes From Subaerial Large Igneous Provinces
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
