    Experimental Simulations of Magma Storage and Ascent

    One of the key issues in utilizing precursor signals of volcanic eruption is to reliably interpret geophysical and geochemical data in terms of magma movement towards the surface. An important first step is to...

    Deep pre-eruptive storage of silicic magmas feeding Plinian and dome-forming eruptions of central and northern Dominica (Lesser Antilles) inferred from volatile contents of melt inclusions

    Volatiles contribute to magma ascent through the sub-volcanic plumbing system. Here, we investigate melt inclusion compositions in terms of major and trace elements, as well as volatiles (H2O, CO2, SO2, F, Cl, Br...

    An experimental study of amphibole stability in low-pressure granitic magmas and a revised Al-in-hornblende geobarometer

    We report new experimental data on the composition of magmatic amphiboles synthesised from a variety of granite (sensu lato) bulk compositions at near-solidus temperatures and pressures of 0.8–10 kbar. The tot...

    Oxidised phase relations of a primitive basalt from Grenada, Lesser Antilles

    A series of liquidus determinations is reported for a primitive arc basalt (15.4 wt % MgO, 45.5 wt % SiO2) from Grenada, Lesser Antilles, at anhydrous, H2O-undersaturated and H2O-saturated conditions in the press...

    Magma storage conditions beneath Dabbahu Volcano (Ethiopia) constrained by petrology, seismicity and satellite geodesy

    A variety of methods exist to constrain sub-volcanic storage conditions of magmas. Petrological, seismological and satellite geodetic methods are integrated to determine storage conditions of peralkaline magma...

    An explosive–intrusive subglacial rhyolite eruption at Dalakvísl, Torfajökull, Iceland

    This paper describes unusual rhyolitic deposits at Dalakvísl, Torfajökull, Iceland that were emplaced during a Quaternary subglacial eruption. Despite its small volume (<0.2 km3), the eruption mechanisms were hig...

    The effect of silica activity on the incorporation mechanisms of water in synthetic forsterite: a polarised infrared spectroscopic study

    Pure forsterite crystals were grown from hydrous melts using controlled cooling experiments at 2.0 GPa and varying the bulk Mg/Si ratio from 2.0 to 1.5. Oriented single crystals were then studied by polarised ...

    The ‘zero charge’ partitioning behaviour of noble gases during mantle melting

    Noble-gas geochemistry is an important tool for understanding planetary processes from accretion to mantle dynamics and atmospheric formation1,2,3,4. Central to much of the modelling of such processes is the crys...

    Three-liquid immiscibility and the origin of carbonatites

    THE relationship of rock types involved in carbonatite complexes has provoked much debate1–4. One favoured theory of origin involves the immiscible separation of carbonate-and silicate-rich liquids to produce th...
