Petrological and geochemical evidence for a hot crystallization path and a recharge filtering bypass at Antimilos, Milos volcanic field, Greece
Antimilos volcano in the South Aegean Volcanic Arc, Greece, comprises an andesite–dacite suite that follows a distinct evolutionary path than the...

Altimeter-derived marine gravity variations reveal the magma mass motions within the subaqueous Nishinoshima volcano, Izu–Bonin Arc, Japan
Variations of marine gravity reflect mass changes in Earth’s interior, including magma motions during volcanic eruption, which manifest in submarine...

Alkaline magmas in shallow arc plutonic roots: a field and experimental investigation of hydrous cumulate melting in the southern Adamello batholith
Despite the first-order importance of crystallisation–differentiation for arc magma evolution, several other processes contribute to their...

Basaltic phreatomagmatic fissure at 71 Gulch Part 1: sediment magma mingling and eruptive behavior
71 Gulch Volcano, located in the western Snake River Plain, southwestern Idaho (USA), was formed by a basaltic fissure eruption into Pliocene Lake...

How to turn off a lava lake? A petrological investigation of the 2018 intra-caldera and submarine eruptions of Ambrym volcano
In December 2018, an unusually large intra- and extra-caldera eruption took place at Ambrym volcano (Vanuatu). The eruption drained the volcano’s...

Nyiragongo and Nyamuragira: a review of volcanic activity in the Kivu rift, western branch of the East African Rift System
Nyiragongo and Nyamuragira are two active volcanoes of the Western branch of the East African Rift in the Virunga area. They were built at the Kivu...

Linking fluid dynamics and olivine crystal scale zoning during simulated magma intrusion
The compositional zoning styles of natural crystals produced during magma intrusion can be used to investigate the structure of magmatic plumbing...

A petrological and conceptual model of Mayon volcano (Philippines) as an example of an open-vent volcano
Mayon is a basaltic andesitic, open-vent volcano characterized by persistent passive degassing from the summit at 2463 m above sea level. Mid-size...

Crustal Forensics at Pūtauaki (Mt. Edgecumbe), New Zealand reveal the influence of deep crustal arc processes on magma evolution in the Taupo Volcanic Zone
Our understanding of magmatism in the New Zealand North Island subduction system is limited by sparse knowledge of the structure and composition of...

Towards scientific forecasting of magmatic eruptions
Forecasting eruptions is a fundamental goal of volcanology. However, difficulties in identifying eruptive precursors, fragmented approaches and lack...

Measurement of surface deformation related to the December 2018 Mt. Etna eruption using time-series interferometry and magma modeling for hazard zone map**
Mount Etna has erupted several times since it was first formed. Recently, Mount Etna began erupting again over 24–27 December 2018. Because it erupts...

Dyke to sill deflection in the shallow heterogeneous crust during glacier retreat: part I
Dykes and sills occupy Mode I (extension), Mode II (shear), or hybrid mode fractures and most of the time transport and store magma from deep...

Machine Learning Regression in Petrology
This chapter applies machine-learning regression to petrology. It explains how to calibrate machine-learning thermo-barometers based on orthopyroxene... -
Persistent gas emission originating from a deep basaltic magma reservoir of an active volcano: the case of Aso volcano, Japan
Volcanic gas emission is considered to reflect the degassing of magma beneath volcanoes. The combined observations of gas measurement and...

Vault-housed extensometers recorded a rapid initial pulse before precursory magma reservoir inflation related to the 2011 eruption of Shinmoe-dake, Japan
Previous studies of the major eruption at Shinmoe-dake volcano, Japan, in January 2011 suggested that gradual injection of magma from a deep source...

Origin and significance of noritic blocks in layered anorthosites in the Bushveld Complex, South Africa
Layered mafic–ultramafic intrusions, such as the Rustenburg Layered Suite (RLS) of the Bushveld Complex (South Africa), are the fossilized remnants...

The life cycle of large igneous provinces
Extremely voluminous magmatic systems known as large igneous provinces (LIPs) punctuate Earth’s history, and the gases they release plausibly link...
-
The build-up and triggers of volcanic eruptions
More than 800 million people live in proximity to active volcanoes and could be directly impacted by potential eruptions. Mitigation of future...

Shallow magmatic processes revealed by cryptic microantecrysts: a case study from the Taupo Volcanic Zone
Arc magmas typically contain phenocrysts with complex zoning and diverse growth histories. Microlites highlight the same level of intracrystalline...
