Permeability within basaltic oceanic crust
AT Fisher - Reviews of Geophysics, 1998 - Wiley Online Library
Water‐rock interactions within the seafloor are responsible for significant energy and solute
fluxes between basaltic oceanic crust and the overlying ocean. Permeability is the primary …

Magmatism at mid-ocean ridges: Constraints from volcanological and geochemical investigations
The mid-ocean ridge (MOR) is the largest, most continuous volcanic system on Earth, yet we
have directly observed, mapped or sampled less than one percent of its total surface area …

Linkages between faulting, volcanism, hydrothermal activity and segmentation on fast spreading centers
KC Macdonald - Geophysical Monograph Series, 1998 - ui.adsabs.harvard.edu
Systematic variations occur along the crests of intermediate-to fast-spreading ridges which
suggest linkages between volcanism, faulting, hydrothermal activity and magma supply …

Evidence from three-dimensional seismic reflectivity images for enhanced melt supply beneath mid-ocean-ridge discontinuities
Quantifying the melt distribution and crustal structure across ridge-axis discontinuities is
essential for understanding the relationship between magmatic, tectonic and petrologic …

Internal structure of oceanic lithosphere: A perspective from tectonic windows
JA Karson - Geophysical Monograph Series, 1998 - ui.adsabs.harvard.edu
Major faulted escarpments on the seafloor provide" tectonic windows" into oceanic crust and
upper mantle. Direct observations in these settings reveal that the spatial arrangement …
