The origin of Proterozoic massif-type anorthosites: Evidence from interactions between crustal xenoliths and basaltic magma [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Plagioclase-rich reaction zones occur around numerous aluminous crustal xenoliths within a suite of Palaeogene sub-volcanic basic sheets on the Isle of Mull, NW Scotland.

Volcanological challenges to understanding explosive large-scale eruptions

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
An explosive eruption, associated with the formation of a large ignimbrite sheet and collapsed caldera, is the most severe volcanic disaster on Earth.

Combining High- and Low-Rate Geodetic Data Analysis for Unveiling Rapid Magma Transfer Feeding a Sequence of Violent Summit Paroxysms at Etna in Late 2015

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
We propose a multi-temporal-scale analysis of ground deformation data using both high-rate tilt and GNSS measurements and the DInSAR and daily GNSS solutions in order to investigate a sequence of four paroxysmal episodes of the Voragine crater occurring ...

Storage conditions of the mafic and silicic magmas at Cotopaxi, Ecuador [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2018
The 2015 reactivation of the Cotopaxi volcano urges us to understand the complex eruptive dynamics of Cotopaxi for better management of a potential major crisis in the near future. Cotopaxi has commonly transitioned from andesitic eruptions of strombolian style (lava flows and scoria ballistics) or nuees ardentes (pyroclastic flows and ash falls) to ...

Magma mobilization by downward-propagating decompression of the Eyjafjallajökull volcanic plumbing system [PDF]

open access: yes
Detailed observations of the 2010 Eyjafjallajökull eruptions in Iceland show seismic activity propagating vertically through the entire crust during a ten-week period of volcanic unrest comprising multiple eruption episodes.

Segmented dike intrusion linked to multi-level magma storage during and before the 2025 eruption at Erta Ale (East Africa)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
IntroductionDike intrusions can assist continental rifting and plate divergence. However, our understanding of the magma dynamics during diking and the architecture of the magma storage that feeds dikes are still limited by temporally and spatially ...

Explosive Activity on Kīlauea's Lower East Rift Zone Fueled by a Volatile‐Rich, Dacitic Melt

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
Magmas with matrix glass compositions ranging from basalt to dacite erupted from a series of 24 fissures in the first 2 weeks of the 2018 Lower East Rift Zone (LERZ) eruption of Kīlauea Volcano.

Crustal thickness and magma storage beneath the Ecuadorian arc

open access: yesJournal of South American Earth Sciences, 2021
Abstract The Northern Andes of Ecuador contain some of the most active volcanic systems in the Andes and extend over a broad region from the Western Cordillera to the Subandean Zone. While it is known that the arc straddles a range of basement compositions, from accreted mafic oceanic terranes in the west to silicic continental terranes in the east ...

DensityX: A program for calculating the densities of magmatic liquids up to 1,627 °C and 30 kbar

open access: yesVolcanica, 2019
Here we present a standalone program, DensityX, to calculate the densities of hydrous silicate melts (1,000s of samples in a single model run) given pressures, temperatures, and major oxide compositions in wt% in the 10-component system SiO2-TiO2-Al2O3 ...
