Subduction Zone Magnetism: The Influence of Metamorphism and Serpentinization in the Mantle Wedge

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Subduction zone magnetic anomalies have previously been used to infer their thermal structure assuming a uniformly serpentinized mantle carries a homogeneous, isotropic magnetization. However, seismic tomography, geological observations and numerical modeling provide increasing evidence for a non‐uniformly serpentinized mantle wedge that may ...

The Terceira Rift, Azores: a melt inclusion study of submarine lavas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Azores plateau, a bathymetric high, is seated on an anomalous mantle domain located in the Azores Triple Junction where the American, EUR and AFR lithospheric plates meet.

Magnetic Reversals During the Deccan Volcanism: Paleomagnetic Insights From the Pachmarhi Dykes

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The three main dyke swarms that are linked to the Deccan Continental Flood Basalts are the Nasik‐Pune, Western Coastal, and Narmada‐Satpura‐Tapi (N‐S‐T) swarms. Encompassing approximately 244 mapped basaltic dykes, mainly trending E‐W and positioned along an ancient tectonic zone, the Pachmarhi dyke swarm is situated in the eastern N‐S‐T ...

Water in Eclogite and Pyroxenite Xenoliths From the Bottom 100 km of the Slave Craton (Canada) Mantle Root

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Major and trace elements, including H2O, were determined in garnet and clinopyroxene to constrain the evolution of mantle xenoliths from Diavik, Canada.

Eocene Lamproitic Magmatism in Gangdese: Melting Sub‐Arc Lithospheric Mantle and Implications for the Early Cenozoic Magmatic “Flare Up” in Southern Tibet

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The role of sub‐arc mantle lithosphere in the build‐up of a batholith is an outstanding issue that is still not well resolved. Lamproite is a mantle‐derived magmatic rock that provides a window to learn the composition and the enrichment processes of subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM).

Geological constraints for a conceptual evolutionary model of the slope deformations affecting Mt. Nuovo at Ischia (Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
ischia island was the scenario of several Holocene slope in- stability events occurred at different scales, from shallow mass movements, triggered by meteo-climatic forcing, up to massive rock slope failures such as large debris avalanches these last ...

Geochemical Analysis of Diachronous V‐Shaped Ridges and Troughs That Flank the Reykjanes Ridge South of Iceland

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract It is recognized that mantle plumes play a direct role in generating regional uplift and producing immense volumes of basaltic magmatism, both of which can influence paleoclimate. The Icelandic Plume, beneath the North Atlantic Ocean, is of particular importance due to its size and position at a significant paleoceanographic gateway.

Clinopyroxene precursors to amphibole sponge in arc crust

open access: yesNature Communications, 2014
The formation of amphibole cumulates beneath arc volcanoes is a key control on magma geochemistry, and generates a hydrous lower crust. Despite being widely inferred from trace element geochemistry as a major lower crustal phase, amphibole is neither ...

Slab Gap‐Related Intraplate Magmatism as a Proxy of Maximum Flat Slab Extent in Patagonia

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Establishing the frontal extent of ancient flat subduction events from the geologic record can be challenging. This difficulty arises because magmatic activity in the arc typically ceases during complete slab flattening, and other meaningful proxies are usually absent. To address this issue, we examine early Paleocene intraplate magmatic units
