Upper crustal structure of an active volcano from refraction/reflection tomography, Montserrat, Lesser Antilles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
To better understand the volcanic phenomena acting on Montserrat, the SEA-CALIPSO seis-mic experiment (Seismic Experiment with Airgun-source – Caribbean Andesitic Lava Island Precision Seismo-geodetic Observatory) was conducted in 2007 December with the ...

Deep crustal electromagnetic structure of Bhuj earthquake region (India) and its implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The existence of fluids and partial melt in the lower crust of the seismically active Kutch rift basin (on the western continental margin of India) owing to underplating has been proposed in previous geological and geophysical studies. This hypothesis is

Crustal Structure of Active Deformation Zones in Africa: Implications for Global Crustal Processes

open access: yes, 2017
The Cenozoic East African rift (EAR), Cameroon Volcanic Line (CVL), and Atlas Mountains formed on the slow‐moving African continent, which last experienced orogeny during the Pan‐African.

A three-dimensional study of a crustal low velocity region beneath the 9°03′N overlapping spreading center [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Overlapping spreading centers (OSCs) play a key role in models of magma distribution at fast spreading ridges. To investigate the relationship between ridge-axis discontinuities and magma supply, we conducted a three-dimensional seismic reflection and ...

Quantifying crustal thickness over time in magmatic arcs

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2015
We present global and regional correlations between whole-rock values of Sr/Y and La/Yb and crustal thickness for intermediate rocks from modern subduction-related magmatic arcs formed around the Pacific.

The influence of surface clinker on the crustal structures and dynamics of 'a'ā lava flows. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Surface structures on 'a'ā and blocky lavas reflect the internal flow dynamics during emplacement and also influence the dynamics of developing flows.

A joint geochemical–geophysical record of time-dependent mantle convection south of Iceland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The North Atlantic V-Shaped Ridges (VSRs) provide a spatially extensive and clear record of unsteady mantle convective circulation over >40 My>40 My.

Seismic imaging of crustal structure at mid-ocean ridges: a three-dimensional approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Over recent years geological, geochemical and geophysical surveys of mid-ocean ridges have revealed a significant degree of along-axis variability not only in seabed morphology, but also in crustal structure, particularly Numerous geophysical surveys of ...

On ultrahigh temperature crustal metamorphism: phase equilibria, trace element thermometry, bulk composition, heat sources, timescales and tectonic settings

open access: yes, 2015
Ultrahigh temperature (UHT) metamorphism is the most thermally extreme form of regional crustal metamorphism, with temperatures exceeding 900 °C. UHT crustal metamorphism is recognised in more than 50 localities globally in the metamorphic rock record ...
