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

Cerro prieto and its relation to the gulf of California spreading centers
The Cerro Prieto geothermal field is located in the Mexicali Valley, Baja California. Tectonically, this northern part of the Gulf of California has been classified as a spreading center, within a transitional area of oceanic to continental conditions ...

Impact of urban structure on infectious disease spreading [PDF]
The ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has been holding the world hostage for several years now. Mobility is key to viral spreading and its restriction is the main non-pharmaceutical interventions to fight the virus expansion.

Cenozoic Plate Tectonic Reconstructions and Plate Boundary Processes in the Southwest Pacific [PDF]
The Australia-Pacific-Antarctic plate circuit has long been a weak link in global plate reconstruction models for Cenozoic time. The time period spanning chron 20 to chron 7 (43-25 Ma) is particularly problematic for global plate models because seafloor

Links from Mantle to Microbe at the Lau Integrated Study Site: Insights from a Back-Arc Spreading Center [PDF]
The Lau Integrated Study Site (ISS) has provided unique opportunities for study of ridge processes because of its back-arc setting in the southwestern Pacific. Its location allows study of a biogeographical province distinct from those of eastern Pacific

It is with especially great pleasure, and a bit of nostalgia, that I introduce the March 2012 special issue of Oceanography on "Oceanic Spreading Center Processes: Ridge 2000 Program Research." My very first oceanographic cruise was to the Juan de Fuca ...

Chemistry, Temperature, and Faunal Distributions at Diffuse-Flow Hydrothermal Vents: Comparison of Two Geologically Distinct Ridge Systems [PDF]
Diffuse-flow, low-temperature areas near hydrothermal vents support life via chemosynthesis: hydrogen sulfide (and other reduced chemical compounds) emanating from the subsurface is oxidized with bottom-water oxygen through bacterial mediation to fix ...

Overlapping spreading centers (OSCs) play a key role in models of magma distribution at fast spreading ridges. To investigate the relationship between ridge-axis discontinuities and magma supply, we conducted a three-dimensional seismic reflection and ...
