Diffusion data in silicate melts
Atomic scale diffusion in silicate melts plays a critical role in a variety of magmatic
processes, as long recognized by geologists (Bowen 1921). Geochemists have investigated …

Explosive-effusive volcanic eruption transitions caused by sintering
Silicic volcanic activity has long been framed as either violently explosive or gently effusive.
However, recent observations demonstrate that explosive and effusive behavior can occur …
