Chemical geodynamics insights from a machine learning approach
The radiogenic isotope heterogeneity of oceanic basalts is often assessed using 2D isotope
ratio diagrams. But because the underlying data are at least six dimensional (87Sr/86Sr …

Volume and rate of volcanic CO2 emissions governed the severity of past environmental crises
The emplacement of large igneous provinces (LIPs) has been linked to catastrophic mass
extinctions in Earth's history, but some LIPs are only associated with less severe oceanic …
