Abstract Distributed basaltic volcanic fields commonly host minor but significant silicic magmas, the origin of which remains debated. At Harrat Khaybar (western Saudi Arabia; ca. 1.7 Ma to present), volcanic activity erupted compositions range from alkali olivine basalt to trachyte and comendite.

Abstract The northern extent of Greater India is a critical, yet highly debated, parameter for reconstructing the India‐Asia collision. Previous paleomagnetic estimates, including the fill‐the‐gap and fixed great circle approaches, yield widely varying results, spanning from ∼200 to ∼3,000 km. These large discrepancies stem principally from two primary

Abstract The nature of mantle sections exhumed at magma‐poor rifted margins remains poorly constrained, largely because direct sampling of mantle in modern passive margins is exceptionally rare. The Iberia–Newfoundland system is unique in providing drilled mantle rocks on both conjugate margins, offering an unprecedented glimpse into mantle ...

Tectonic Evolution of the Mariana Trough
Abstract The Mariana Trough is an active back‐arc basin formed by subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the Philippine Sea Plate and provides an ideal setting for investigating the evolution of back‐arc basins. In this study, we compile bathymetric, magnetic, and gravity data to reconstruct the formation history of the entire basin.

BaSIC: A Bayesian Inversion Model for Basalt Source Investigation and Characterization
Abstract We present BaSIC: Basalt Source Investigation and Characterization, an open‐source Python based Bayesian inversion method to constrain the source mineralogy of basalts. Using bulk rock geochemistry, the model takes the averages and standard deviations of six elemental ratios (Mn/Fe, Zn/Fe, Mn/Zn, Sc/Zn, Co/Fe, and Ga/Sc) for a given basalt ...

Abstract A wide selection of linear and non‐linear dimensionality reduction techniques is evaluated on synthetic tsunami data that is the basis for tsunami hazard assessment and computational forecasting. The data were computed from earthquake rupture forecasts (ERFs) supplying initial generation conditions and a linear long‐wave Green's function ...
