Mantle source lithologies for the Columbia River flood basalt province
The Columbia River flood basalts in the northwestern United States are recognized as part of the greater Yellowstone hotspot province, the products...
-
Intrusions induce global warming before continental flood basalt volcanism
Extinction events are known to correlate with continental flood basalt eruptions. Massive carbon degassing from these eruptions can have catastrophic...

Evolution of mid-Tertiary continental pyroclastic-flood basalt facies association within the context of the Red Sea rifting, northern Western Desert, Egypt
The research offers a perspective on the hierarchical facies and the development of an Oligo-Miocene sequence of pyroclastics and lava flows within a...

Petrogenesis and Tectonic Implications of the Tertiary Choke Shield Basalt and Continental Flood Basalt from the Central Ethiopian Plateau
The voluminous Choke Shield basalts and flood basalts are distributed in the central Ethiopian Plateau. They are tholeiitic in composition and have...

Stratigraphic framework of the northeastern part of the Ethiopian flood basalt province
We present a first stratigraphy of the flood basalt succession in eastern Wollo province, northern Ethiopian plateau, based on detailed field...

Geochemistry and geochronology of the Rajmahal Flood Basalt Province, northeastern India: Genetic links to Kerguelen hotspot activity
New geochemical and geochronological data lead to a fuller understanding of different aspects of the Rajmahal flood basalt province. Earlier work was...

Thermal conductivity of Deccan flood basalts
AbstractRock thermal conductivity is an essential parameter for the determination of heat flow of the Earth and geothermal modelling studies. It has...

Sub-basalt hydrocarbon prospect assessment in Peninsular India using seaward dip** reflectors
Conventionally, volcanic margins have been considered devoid of hydrocarbon, but many discoveries and research in recent past have proved the...

P–T estimates for the fractionated and primary melt of tholeiitic dykes from Multai area of Deccan flood basalt, Madhya Pradesh (India)
AbstractPetrological, mineral chemical and geochemical results are reported for the Cenozoic en-echelon tholeiitic dykes of the Multai area of Deccan...

Olivine decadence of continental flood basalts in the light of recent experiments: A case study from Khandwa, Eastern Deccan Volcanic Province
AbstractContinental flood basalts of the world are represented either by picrobasalt/picrite layers (with abundant growth of olivine) or by (almost)...

An integration of geospatial and fuzzy-logic techniques for flood-hazard map**
A hazard is a natural occurrence that might harm humans, animals or the environment. It may cause loss of life, illness or other health consequences,...

Comparison of weighting methods of multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) in evaluation of flood hazard index
Preparing a map of flood hazard is susceptibility an important step in flood risk management. Therefore, it is necessary to use methods that reduce...

Morphological transitions between lobate resurfacing and distal breakout lava flows in flood basalts: insights from analog experiments
Continental flood basalts (CFBs) are dominated by two characteristic lava morphologies. The first type, referred to as ‘compound’ or ‘hummocky...
