A Graphical User Interface Application to Model Open‐System Melting in the Upper Mantle

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The mantle partial melting process is crucial for the physicochemical evolution of the Earth's upper mantle and the generation of mafic crust. The open‐system melting model incorporates continuous melt segregation, interaction with melts or fluids, and ...

Geochemistry and Structure of Krakatoa Volcano in the Sunda Strait, Indonesia

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
The violent eruption of Krakatoa Volcano located in the Sunda Strait, Indonesia, in 1883 represents one of the deadliest eruptions in human civilization.

The Meaning of Pressure for Primary Magmas: New Insights From PRIMELT3‐P

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
This paper reports new software, PRIMELT3‐P, for computing the pressure and temperature range over which a primary basaltic magma was formed by adiabatic decompression and fractional melting of fertile mantle peridotite.

Mid-Cretaceous extensional magmatism in the Alborz Mountains, north Iran; geochemistry and geochronology of Gasht-Masuleh gabbros

open access: yesSwiss Journal of Geosciences, 2023
In the Gasht-Masuleh area in the Alborz Mountains, gabbroic magma intruded Palaeozoic metasediments and Mesozoic sediments and crystallised as isotropic and cumulate gabbros.

Geochemical variation at the Hawaiian hot spot caused by upper mantle dynamics and melting of a heterogeneous plume

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2008
Geochemical variations within the young Hawaiian Islands occur in two particularly prominent forms: differences between volcanic stages and differences between the “Loa” and “Kea” subchains.

The latest geodynamics in Central Asia: primary and secondary mantle melting anomalies in the context of orogenesis, rifting, and lithospheric plate motions and interactions

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2017
A comprehensive model for deep dynamics in Asia has been developed from the data on the evolution of melting anomalies in the context of lithospheric plate motions, interactions, orogeny, and rifting.

Deglaciation-enhanced mantle CO2 fluxes at Yellowstone imply positive climate feedback

open access: yesNature Communications
Mantle melt generation in response to glacial unloading has been linked to enhanced magmatic volatile release in Iceland and global eruptive records. It is unclear whether this process is important in systems lacking evidence of enhanced eruptions.

Depth-dependent peridotite-melt interaction and the origin of variable silica in the cratonic mantle

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The compositional variability amongst Archaean cratonic peridotites has long been recognized, however its origin remains debated. The authors here find that the collapse of the dual Archaean mantle melting environment ceased production of silica-enriched

Global-scale modelling of melting and isotopic evolution of Earth's mantle: melting modules for TERRA [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2016
Many outstanding problems in solid-Earth science relate to the geodynamical explanation of geochemical observations. Currently, extensive geochemical databases of surface observations exist, but satisfying explanations of underlying mantle processes are ...

Petrological features of Subei Basin (Eastern China) lithospheric mantle and their relationships with H2O contents in NAMs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Subei basin is located east of the Tanlu fault, a major discontinuity which separates the Archean North China Craton from the Proterozoic Yangtze Craton.
