Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 The Himalayan leucogranites provide a good opportunity to investigate the crustal evolution of the southern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. In this study, we present zircon U-Pb and monazite U-Th-Pb ages, zircon Hf isotopes and whole-rock Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes and ...

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 ...

Progressive underplating of mafic material at mid-crustal depth beneath Ischia volcano, Italy
Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 The destructive (Mw 3.9) earthquake of 21 August 2017 re-opened the question on where magma resides at the Ischia island volcano. The peculiar complexity of the seismic source initiated the debate on the involvement of fluid-related processes, but the ...

Time scales of crystal mixing in magma mushes [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 AbstractMagma mixing is widely recognized as a means of producing compositional diversity and preconditioning magmas for eruption. However, the processes and associated time scales that produce the commonly observed expressions of magma mixing are poorly understood, especially under crystal‐rich conditions.

Communications Earth & Environment, 2021 Porphyry-type deposits are the world’s main source of copper and molybdenum and provide a large proportion of gold and other metals. However, the mechanism by which mineralising fluids are extracted from source magmas and transported upwards into the ore-

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.

Volcanic eruptions from ghost magma chambers [PDF]
, 2008 Recent studies have proposed that magma reservoirs crystallized to a virtually rigid crystal-mush can be partially remelted by diffusion of hot fluids. We show that for a crystal mush with the composition of a K-trachyte from the Campanian Ignimbrite (CI)

Vertically extensive and unstable magmatic systems:a unified view of igneous processes [PDF]
, 2017 Volcanoes are an expression of their underlying magmatic systems. Over the past three decades, the classical focus on upper crustal magma chambers has expanded to consider magmatic processes throughout the crust.
