Energy dissipation due to intrinsic attenuation occurs at elevated temperatures in rocks as a
result of a range of processes. Examples where small-strain, transient deformation occurs …

Over the last few decades, significant advances in using geophysical techniques to image
the structure of magma plumbing systems have enabled the identification of zones of melt …

Seismic imaging methods have provided detailed three-dimensional constraints on the
physical properties of magmatic systems leading to invaluable insight into the storage …

Abstract Long period (10–20,000 s) magnetotelluric (MT) data are being acquired across the
continental USA on a quasi-regular grid of∼ 70 km spacing as an electromagnetic …

The low-viscosity layer in the upper mantle, the asthenosphere, is a requirement for plate
tectonics. The seismic low velocities and the high electrical conductivities of the …

For over 50 years, the use of high-pressure piston/cylinder apparatus combined with an
increasing diversity of microbeam analytical techniques has enabled the study of mantle …

Elasticity, anelasticity, and viscosity of polycrystalline aggregates were measured at the near‐
solidus temperatures ranging from below to above the solidus temperature (Tm). The result …

To better constrain the temperature structure in the upper mantle, we jointly invert seismic
surface wave velocities and basalt thermobarometry. New measurements of the water …

Melt percolation in mantle rocks is currently poorly constrained, especially at low melt
fractions. At mid-ocean ridges, for example, geochemical and geophysical observations …

Silica-rich hydrous magmas are commonly stored in crustal reservoirs, but are also present
at mantle depths in subduction contexts as a result of slab melting in the presence of …
