Pre-eruptive storage constraints of an active crystal mush using mineral-scale techniques [PDF]
, 2023 Crystal mushes are common conceptual models used to interpret the structure of a magmatic reservoirs in many volcanic environments and are drivers of differentiation that can generate explosive silicic eruptions.

Transport of melt, pressure and heat through a magma mush
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Prior to intrusion, magma migrates through the crustal plumbing system that likely contains layers or columns of crystal mush. To better understand the behavior of the crustal magmatic system during magmatic unrest, it is important to examine the process

Viscosity of Crystal‐Mushes and Implications for Compaction‐Driven Fluid Flow
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2022 Abstract Centrifuge experiments on olivine, chromite, and plagioclase aggregates saturated in basaltic liquid show evidence of viscous compaction by grain‐boundary diffusion‐controlled creep. The experiments confirm that the exponential dependence of shear viscosity on melt fraction, observed at low porosities in ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 Quartz‐hosted melt inclusions are windows into the assembly and storage of compositionally zoned magmas systems like the giant magma body responsible for the 2,800 km3 Youngest Toba Tuff (YTT), Indonesia.

Mush microphysics and the reactivation of crystal‐rich magma reservoirs [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2014 AbstractReactivation and eruption of upper crustal crystal‐rich magma reservoirs (“crystal mushes”) following recharge has recently been invoked in numerous volcanic systems worldwide. Over the last few years, several models have been proposed for the reactivation of such mushes prior to or during eruptions.

Crystal Shape Control on the Repacking and Jamming of Crystal‐Rich Mushes
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 AbstractThe rheology of crustal mushes is a crucial parameter controlling melt segregation and magma flow. However, the relations between mush dynamics and crystal size and shape distribution remain poorly understood because of the complexity of melt‐crystal and crystal‐crystal interactions.

The permeability of loose magma mush [PDF]
, 2023 Models for the evolution of magma mush zones are of fundamental importance for understanding magma storage, differentiation in the crust, and melt extraction processes that prime eruptions.

Fossilized solidification fronts in the Bushveld Complex argue for liquid-dominated magmatic systems
Nature Communications, 2020 Magma storage zones are debated to either be crystal-dominated mush zones or large liquid-dominated magma chambers. Here, the authors discover fossilized solidification fronts of magnetitite in the Bushveld pluton, which indicate nucleation and crystal ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023 Giant volcanic eruptions have the potential to overturn civilizations. Yet, the driving mechanism and timescale over which batholithic magma reservoirs transition from non‐eruptible crystal mush to mobile melt‐dominated stages and our capacity to detect ...
