The central-western Mediterranean area is a key region for understanding the complex
interaction between igneous activity and tectonics. In this review, the specific geochemical …

Polygenetic volcanoes and calderas produce eruptions of a wide variety of magnitudes,
chemistries, and recurrence times. Understanding the interplay between long-and short-term …

We present a geodynamic reconstruction of the Central–Western Mediterranean and
neighboring areas during the last 50Myr, including magmatological and tectonic …

Postcollisional potassium-rich magmatism in southern Tibet provides an important insight
into the deep processes inducing accelerated plateau uplift and associated geologic …

Melting experiments have been performed at 3 GPa, between 1150 and 1450° C, on a
phlogopite-peridotite source in the garnet stability field. We succeeded to extract and …

Abstract The Middle Miocene Afyon alkaline volcanic complex (western Anatolia) erupted
lavas of highly variable geochemistry, ranging from silica-undersaturated to silica …

Subduction drags a large amount of CO 2 into the Earth's interior, which is partly returned to
the atmosphere by arc volcanism. Processes involved in the recycling of subducted carbon …

Mantle-derived magmas at convergent plate boundaries provide unique insights into the
nature of materials subducted to and recycled from depths. Here we present a study of Os …

Slab retreat, slab tearing and interactions of slabs are first-order drivers of the deformation of
the overriding lithosphere. An independent description of the tectonic evolution of the back …

The Oligocene–Pleistocene Tethyan Realm Lamproites, from the Mediterranean to
Himalayas, have a clear subduction-related signature and represent one of the most exotic …
