Partial melting in the deepest mantle [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2002
We have compared the travel times of direct (P, S) and core‐reflected (PcP, ScS) phases recorded in southern Africa from earthquakes occurring in the Scotia Arc region. The low‐velocity region beneath the south Atlantic is explored by calculating ScS‐S and PcP‐P travel‐time residuals to determine the correlation and magnitude of Vs and Vp reductions in

Acoustic and Microstructural Properties of Partially Molten Samples in the Ice–Ammonia System

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
We measured the ultrasonic properties and microstructure of two-phase binary mixtures of the ice−ammonia partial melt system, which was selected based on its importance for numerous planetary bodies.

Compositional Data Analysis (CoDA) of Clinopyroxene From Abyssal Peridotites

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
We analyze a large database of abyssal peridotite clinopyroxene compositions using log‐ratio transformation, principal component analysis (PCA) and k‐means clustering, to better understand clinopyroxene compositional systematics in abyssal peridotites ...

Geophysical and Geochemical Constraints on Neogene‐Recent Volcanism in the North American Cordillera

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Widespread recent volcanic rocks occur across the Cordillera landward of the current/recent volcanic arc Mexico to Alaska and most other subduction backarcs.

Distribution of Partial Melt Beneath Changbaishan/Paektu Volcano, China/Democratic People's Republic of Korea

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Changbaishan/Paektu volcano straddles the border between the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and China. It was responsible for one of the largest eruptions in history, the “Millennium Eruption' of 946 CE. An episode of unrest between 2002 and 2005,

Magmatic Activity and Dynamics of Melt Supply of Volcanic Centers of Ultraslow Spreading Ridges: Hints From Local Earthquake Tomography at the Knipovich Ridge

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
Along ultraslow spreading ridges melt is distributed unequally, but melt focusing guides melt away from amagmatic segments toward volcanic centers. An interplay of tectonism and magmatism is thought to control melt ascent, but the detailed process of ...

Effect of Terrigenous Sediment Addition on the Generation of Arc Silicic Magma: Constraints From the Comparative Partial Melting Experiment at 1.5 GPa

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
To assess the effects of sediment addition on the partial melting of subducted oceanic crust and generation of arc silicic magma, a series of comparative partial melting experiments on a garnet plagioamphibolite and a 90 wt% garnet plagioamphibolite + 10

Imaging Lithospheric Discontinuities Beneath the Northern East African Rift Using S‐to‐P Receiver Functions

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2018
Imaging the lithosphere is key to understand mechanisms of extension as rifting progresses. Continental rifting results in a combination of mechanical stretching and thinning of the lithosphere, decompression upwelling, heating, sometimes partial melting

Magnetotelluric Constraints on the Temperature, Composition, Partial Melt Content, and Viscosity of the Upper Mantle Beneath Svalbard

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Long‐period magnetotelluric (MT) data can be used to interpret upper mantle temperature, hydrogen content, and the presence of partial melt, all of which strongly influence mantle viscosity. We have collected the first long‐period MT data in Svalbard and

Ethylene Homopolymerization by Ziegler-Natta (TiCl4/MgCl2) Catalyst through Full Factorial Experimental Design [PDF]

open access: yesعلوم و تکنولوژی پلیمر, 2009
Full factorial experimental design (23) for the evaluation of slurry ethylene polymerization in the presence of an industrial TiCl4/MgCl2 Ziegler-Natta catalyst was employed.
