Abstract The Valles Caldera (VC), one of the largest Quaternary silicic calderas in North America, formed by explosive rhyolitic eruptions. Seismic studies suggest a crustal magmatic reservoir beneath the caldera with low‐velocity anomalies, but resolving the detailed geometry of localized melt requires constraints from seismic anisotropy.

Using XRD to Characterize Sediment Sorting in a Mars Analog Glacio-Fluvio-Eolian Basaltic Sedimentary System in Iceland [PDF]
The martian surface has a primarily basaltic composition and is dominated by sedimentary deposits. Ancient layered sedimentary rocks have been identified across the planet from orbit, have been studied in situ by the Mars Exploration Rovers and the Mars ...

Abstract The Alpine Fault (Aotearoa New Zealand) is a major plate boundary transform fault, that quasi‐periodically hosts large (M7‐8) to great (M8+) earthquakes. The fault is thought to be segmented with sections rupturing both individually and in combination.

Crustal growth: Some major problems [PDF]
Fundamental problems with models currently used to explain the genesis and evolution of continental crust were raised. These problems focus around the difficulty of generating the upper continental crust from a lower crustal or mantle protolith without ...

Abstract The Curie Point Depth (CPD) is a key thermal boundary in the deep lithosphere and is widely used to constrain its thermal structure. However, uncertainties in magnetization and the non‐uniqueness of inversion lead to considerable inter‐study differences.
