Logarithmic Growth of Dikes From a Depressurizing Magma Chamber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Dike propagation is an intrinsically multiphase problem, where deformation and fluid flow are intricately coupled in a fracture process. Here we perform the first fully coupled simulations of dike propagation in two dimensions, accounting for ...

Rift Development, Tectonic Forcings, and Magmatic Feedbacks at Santorini and Kolumbo Volcanoes Constrained by Scientific Drilling and Core‐Seismic Integration

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Volcanism in continental rifts, rifted volcanic arcs, and back‐arc basins is fundamentally coupled with crustal extension. However, the precise geometry and timing of the fault systems that facilitate magma transport and accommodate extension remain poorly constrained.

The Pobei Cu-Ni and Fe ore deposits in NW China are comagmatic evolution products: evidence from ore microscopy, zircon U-Pb chronology and geochemistry

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2017
The Pobei mafic-ultramafic complex in northwestern China comprises magmatic Cu-Ni sulfide ore deposits coexisting with Fe-Ti oxide deposits. The Poshi, Poyi, and Podong ultramafic intrusions host the Cu-Ni ore. The ultramafic intrusions experienced four

Lunar Crustal Formation by Melt Migration and Differentiation Within a Stagnant Lid

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The lunar anorthosite highlands represent the Moon's primary crust, which formed during the solidification of a magma ocean following the Moon‐forming giant impact. However, the canonical model of anorthite flotation in the crystallizing magma ocean often struggles to reproduce the long > ${ >} $200 Myr solidification timescale required by the

The 1723 AD violent Strombolian and phreatomagatic eruption at Irazu volcano (Costa Rica)

open access: yes, 2013
The largest of the recorded historic eruptions at Irazú volcano began on February 16, 1723 and lasted until at least December 11. We here critically examine deposits of this eruption exposed on the summit of Irazú. Our reconstruction of the eruption is

Numerical simulation of convection and mixing in magma chambers replenished with CO2-rich magma

open access: yes, 2006
Magma convection and mixing, and periodic refilling, commonly occur in magma chambers.We show here that the presence of CO2 in the refilling magma is a very efficient mean of inducing buoyant-driven plume rise and large scale convection.

Arc Heat Flow and Magmatic Heat Budgets

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract We evaluate hydrothermal heat loss from 11 volcanic‐arc segments (∼6,000 km of arc length, ∼10% of the global total), motivated by the observation that much magmatic heat ultimately crosses the land surface as heated aqueous fluid. Heat loss takes place by volcanic eruption, geothermal heat conduction to the surface, fumarolic (vapor ...

Quantification of the Intrusive Magma Fluxes during Magma Chamber Growth at Soufriere Hills Volcano (Montserrat, Lesser Antilles)

open access: yes, 2014
Magma fluxes in the crust control the thermal viability and mechanical stability of magma chambers. We estimated the magma fluxes required to generate the negative seismic velocity anomaly observed below Soufrière Hills volcano, Montserrat.

A Machine Learning Approach for Volcanic Eruption Mass Estimation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Estimation of total volcanic erupted mass—the primary metric of eruption magnitude—is typically performed post‐eruption relying on dense monitoring of ground‐based seismology, gravity and deformation instrumentation, and therefore exists for only ∼100 of ∼1280 volcanoes worldwide.

GEODYNAMICS AS WAVE DYNAMICS OF THE MEDIUM COMPOSED OF ROTATING BLOCKS

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
The geomedium block concept envisages that stresses in the medium composed of rotating blocks have torque and thus predetermine the medium's energy capacity (in terms of [Ponomarev, 2008]).
