The latest geodynamics in Central Asia: primary and secondary mantle melting anomalies in the context of orogenesis, rifting, and lithospheric plate motions and interactions

Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2017
A comprehensive model for deep dynamics in Asia has been developed from the data on the evolution of melting anomalies in the context of lithospheric plate motions, interactions, orogeny, and rifting.

Geochemistry and petrogenesis of volcanic rocks from Daimao Seamount (South China Sea) and their tectonic implications [PDF]

, 2015
The South China Sea (SCS) experienced three episodes of seafloor spreading and left three fossil spreading centers presently located at 18°N, 17°N and 15.5°N.

Source to surface model of monogenetic volcanism: a critical review

Special Publications, 2017
Small-scale volcanic systems are the most widespread type of volcanism on Earth and occur in all of the main tectonic settings. Most commonly, these systems erupt basaltic magmas within a wide compositional range from strongly silica undersaturated to ...

Morphology of the Reykjanes ridge junction with the rift zones of Iceland

Вестник Камчатской региональной ассоциации "Учебно-научный центр". Серия: Науки о Земле
The joint zone between subaquatic Reykjanes Ridge and Icelandic rift zones known as Reykjanes Rift Zone is a unique transform zone formed in conditions of interaction between the mantle plume and the mid-oceanic ridge.

Late Cenozoic intraplate volcanism as a trigger for hydrothermal venting in the Arctic southwestern Eurasia Basin

Communications Earth & Environment
Intraplate volcanism has occurred for the last 35 million years within Northeast Atlantic and Arctic margins, including the western Barents Sea, Svalbard, and northern Greenland. Earlier studies have suggested that some of this volcanism might be sourced

Candidate constructional volcanic edifices on Mercury [PDF]

, 2018
[Introduction] Studies using MESSENGER data suggest that Mercury’s crust is predominantly a product of effusive volcanism that occurred in the first billion years following the planet’s formation.

The late Mesozoic-Cenozoic tectonic evolution of the South China Sea: A petrologic perspective [PDF]

, 2014
This paper presents a review of available petrological, geochonological and geochemical data for late Mesozoic to Recent igneous rocks in the South China Sea (SCS) and adjacent regions and a discussion of their petrogeneses and tectonic implications. The

Mercury's geochronology revised by applying Model Production Functions to Mariner 10 data: geological implications [PDF]

, 2009
Model Production Function chronology uses dynamic models of the Main Belt Asteroids (MBAs) and Near Earth Objects (NEOs) to derive the impactor flux to a target body.

Mantle Melting and Intraplate Volcanism Due to Self‐Buoyant Hydrous Upwellings From the Stagnant Slab That Are Conveyed by Small‐Scale Convection

Geochemistry Geophysics Geosystems, 2019
The mechanisms sustaining basaltic continental intraplate volcanism remain controversial. Continental intraplate volcanism is often geographically associated with slab stagnation in the mantle transition zone (MTZ), for example, in eastern Asia, central ...
