Abstract The Southern California Earthquake Center (SCEC) Community Rheology Model (CRM) comprises a three‐dimensional geologic framework model (GFM) of southern California's lithosphere, and synthetic aggregate ductile flow laws applicable to each GFM rock type under low‐strain conditions. Given temperature, volatile content, pressure, and strain rate,

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

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

Abstract Two sediment cores were collected from a submarine sediment wave field on the flank of Macauley volcano. Combined with seismic reflection surveys and numerical modeling, we present an integrated model of the formation of large‐scale, eruption‐fed, submarine sediment waves. The sediment waves are large (>100 m high, 1.5 km wide, tens of km long)

Abstract The compositional evolution of the Earth's mantle is the result of mantle differentiation and thermal evolution. Partial melting of mantle materials produces geochemical heterogeneities, allows for degassing and depends on the thermal state of the mantle, itself governed by convection.

Geology of the Mohon Mountain volcanic field, Yavapai and Mohave Counties, Arizona: A preliminary report [PDF]
Field mapping has produced a preliminary picture of Mohon Mountain as a composite volcano, in which pyroclastic ash and larger tephra erupted alternately with flows of rhyodacite and dacite.

Field trip to the Ischia resurgent caldera, a journey across an active volcano in the Gulf of Naples [PDF]
Ischia is one of the most impressive examples of post-caldera resurgence in the world, with its almost 1,000 m of uplift in less than 30 ka. This three-days field trip will lead the participants through the geological and volcanological history of the ...

Abstract Grande Comore, the westernmost island within the Madagascar Comoros Volcanic (MCV) chain, hosts two juxtaposed basaltic volcanoes, Karthala and La Grille, with contrasting lava geochemical signatures and eruption frequencies. Their formation and dynamics have been explained either by a mantle plume or, more recently, as part of a ...

Abstract The southwestern United States hosts well‐documented and dramatic variations in topography, seismicity, heat flow, magmatism, and seismic velocity structure. This region offers opportunities to investigate how processes such as temperature and partial melt are related to the Lithosphere‐Asthenosphere Boundary (LAB), and how they ultimately ...
