Primary magmas at mid-oceas ridges, hotspots, and other intraplate settings: constraints on mantle potential temperature

, 2016
Intraplate, "hotspot," and mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB) are characteristic of the modern Earth, and within the plate tectonics interpretation of the Earth's behavior become the basis for a petrological model of the lithosphere and asthenosphere.

The Intraplate Stress Field of West Africa

Geophysical Research Letters
West Africa continues to host a growing number of low and intermediate‐magnitude earthquakes (M2‐5) along its passive margins, and its continental interior.

Lithospheric Alteration, Intraplate Crustal Deformation, and Topography in Eastern China

, 2018
Topography can be directly observed, but what controls topographic variation is not readily known. To investigate a prominent and remarkably consistent along-trend topographic gradient belt (TGB) in intraplate eastern China and its connection to ongoing ...

Influence of Farallon Slab Loading on Intraplate Stress and Seismicity in Eastern North America in the Presence of Pre‐Existing Weak Zones

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Despite the stability of the continental interior, eastern North America has hosted many significant historical earthquakes. Seismicity concentrates within tectonically inherited structures, which can act as weak zones where stress accumulates.

Intraplate Magmatism

, 2015
Intraplate magmatism is pervasive within both oceanic and continental crust. Expansive spatially and across geologic time, it is complex because of both its causative magmatic processes as well as its interplay with Earth’s mantle geodynamics and plate
