Gradual caldera collapse at Bárdarbunga volcano, Iceland, regulated by lateral magma outflow

open access: yesScience, 2016
Driven to collapse Volcanic eruptions occur frequently, but only rarely are they large enough to cause the top of the mountain to collapse and form a caldera. Gudmundsson et al.

Magmatic Densities Control Erupted Volumes in Icelandic Volcanic Systems

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2018
Magmatic density and viscosity exert fundamental controls on the eruptibility of magmas. In this study, we investigate the extent to which magmatic physical properties control the eruptibility of magmas from Iceland's Northern Volcanic Zone (NVZ).

A new clinopyroxene-liquid barometer, and implications for magma storage pressures under Icelandic rift zones

open access: yes, 2017
Pressure is one of the key variables that controls magmatic phase equilibria. However, estimating magma storage pressures from erupted products can be challenging. Various barometers have been developed over the past two decades that exploit the pressure-

On the mechanism of interaction between strong earthquakes and volcanism in subduction zones

open access: yesВестник Камчатской региональной ассоциации "Учебно-научный центр". Серия: Науки о Земле, 2022
The relationship between strong earthquakes and powerful volcanism in subduction zones are discussed. It is shown that abnormally strong earthquakes or a group of strong earthquakes and powerful volcanic events or volcanic activation of large areas can ...

Arithmetic and $k$-maximality of the cyclic free magma [PDF]

open access: yesArithmetic and k-maximality of the cyclic free magma. Algebra Universalis, 80:35 (2019)
We survey free magmas and we explore the structure of their submagmas. By equipping the cyclic free magma with a second distributive operation we obtain a ringoid-like structure with some primitive arithmetical properties. A submagma is $k$-maximal when there are only $k-1$ submagmas between it and the free magma itself. These two tools, arithmetic and

Density of magmas at depth [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Geology, 2016
Knowing the density of silicate liquids at high pressure is essential to answer questions relevant to the presence of magmas at depth, whether that be in the present Earth or in its earliest times, during differentiation of the planet. Melts have unique physical and chemical properties, which vary as a function pressure, and chemical composition.

Thick crust, hydrous magmas, and the paradox of voluminous cold magmatism

open access: yesVolcanica, 2021
Andesites are refined and “cold” magmas compared to their basaltic parents, yet large volumes of andesites are generated at continental arcs. We show that large andesitic plutons are favored when arc crust attains a thickness of ~60 km while mafic ...

Atmosphere-interior exchange on hot rocky exoplanets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We provide estimates of atmospheric pressure and surface composition on short-period rocky exoplanets with dayside magma pools and silicate vapor atmospheres. Atmospheric pressure tends toward vapor-pressure equilibrium with surface magma, and magma-surface composition is set by the competing effects of fractional vaporization and surface-interior ...

Silicic magma reservoirs in the Earth’s crust

open access: yes, 2016
Magma reservoirs play a key role in controlling numerous processes in planetary evolution, including igneous differentiation and degassing, crustal construction, and volcanism.

Boulder of orbicular rapakivi in Taivassalo, southwestern Finland [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1983
A boulder of an orbicular rapakivi was found in Taivassalo, close to the southern contact of the Vehmaa rapakivi area in southwestern Finland. Many features, e.g.
