Elastic properties of silicate melts: Implications for low velocity zones at the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary. [PDF]
, 2017 Low seismic velocity regions in the mantle and crust are commonly attributed to the presence of silicate melts. Determining melt volume and geometric distribution is fundamental to understanding planetary dynamics.

Post-collisional Tertiary–Quaternary mafic alkalic magmatism in the Carpathian–Pannonian region: a review [PDF]
, 2004 Mafic alkalic volcanism was widespread in the Carpathian–Pannonian region (CPR) between 11 and 0.2 Ma. It followed the Miocene continental collision of the Alcapa and Tisia blocks with the European plate, as subduction-related calc-alkaline magmatism was

Origin of Ophiolitic Peridotites
Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1989 Origin of spinel peridotites of upper mantle derivation, especially that of ophiolitic peridotites, is discussed mainly on the basis of compositional relationship between olivine (Fo content) and chromian spinel (Cr/(Cr+Al) atomic ratio=Cr* ratio). Spinel peridotites are distributed in a relatively narrow band, the olivine-spinel mantle array, on the ...

Two-sided asymmetric subduction; implications for tectonomagmatic and metallogenic evolution of the Lut Block, Eastern Iran [PDF]
, 2011 West directed subduction zones show common characteristics, such as low structural elevation, deep trench, steep slab and a conjugate back-arc basin that are opposite to those of the east directed subduction zones.

THERMOBAROMETRY OF DEPLETED PERIDOTITES
Geodynamics & TectonophysicsAn assessment was made of the possibility of using olivine thermobarometry for xenoliths of depleted peridotites from the Udachnaya pipe (Yakutia), represented by 76 megacrystalline dunites and 5 megacrystalline harzburgites. Specially developed and tested method of microprobe analysis was used to determine Al and Ca microimpurities in the olivine ...
