Magma Plumbing During the 2014–2015 Eruption of Fogo (Cape Verde Islands)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Phenocrysts in volcanic rocks are recorders of magmatic processes that have occurred at depth before and during a volcanic eruption. Our petrological investigations of stratigraphically controlled tephrite and phonotephrite samples from the latest ...

Garnet Chemical Zoning Based Thermobarometry: Method Evaluation and Applications in the Menderes Massif, Western Turkey

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
The garnet chemical zoning method (GZM) is a reliable thermodynamic approach for forward modeling pressure-temperature (P-T) paths using observed garnet and bulk rock compositions.

Amp-TB2: An Updated Model for Calcic Amphibole Thermobarometry [PDF]

open access: yesMinerals, 2021
Amphibole (Amp) plays a crucial role in the study of several earth and planetary processes. One of its most common applications is in thermobarometry, especially for volcanic-magmatic systems. However, many thermobarometers require the input of melt composition, which is not always available in volcanic products (e.g., partially crystallized melts or ...

Application of Clinopyroxene Chemistry for Investigation of the physical conditions of ascending magma, a case study of volcanic rocks in the Aliabad area (Northwest of Nain)

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology, 2020
Introduction The Aliabad area is located in the northwest of Nain. Volcanic rocks of the Aliabad area have andesitic to rhyolitic composition. On the basis of petrographic investigations, porphyritic texture is the main texture of these rocks.

Cooling‐Induced Rheological Weakening Along the Nascent Plate Interface—A Mechanism for Catastrophic Subduction Initiation?

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Subduction initiation often begins with slow, forced convergence, switches “on” catastrophically as the slab collapses into the mantle, and then evolves to steady‐state, self‐sustained sinking that drives global plate movements. Numerical models suggest that the collapse phase implies sudden weakening of the plate interface.

Amphibole and biotite of melanocratic rocks from the Ural granitic massifs: composition, relationship, petrogenetic consequences

open access: yesЛитосфера, 2020
Research subject. The article discusses the features of the relationship between biotite and amphibole on the example of magmatogene melanocratic rocks from a number of granitoid massifs of the Urals. These rocks form xenoliths and synplutonic intrusions
