Structure of volcano plumbing systems: A review of multi-parametric effects

A Tibaldi - Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research, 2015 - Elsevier
Magma is transported and stored in the crust mostly through networks of planar structures
(intrusive sheets), ranging from vertical dykes to inclined sheets and horizontal sills, and …

Laboratory modelling of volcano plumbing systems: a review

Hydrothermal venting of greenhouse gases triggering Early Jurassic global warming

H Svensen, S Planke, L Chevallier… - Earth and Planetary …, 2007 - Elsevier
The climate change in the Toarcian (Early Jurassic) was characterized by a major
perturbation of the global carbon cycle. The event lasted for approximately 200,000 years …

An experimental investigation of sill formation and propagation in layered elastic media

JL Kavanagh, T Menand, RSJ Sparks - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2006 - Elsevier
A series of experiments are described where dyed water (a magma analogue) was intruded
into solid gelatine (a crustal analogue) to investigate the formation of sills. We considered a …

Crustal flow in Tibet: geophysical evidence for the physical state of Tibetan lithosphere, and inferred patterns of active flow

SL Klemperer - Geological Society, London, Special Publications, 2006 - lyellcollection.org
Many seismic and magnetotelluric experiments within Tibet provide proxies for lithospheric
temperature and lithology, and hence rheology. Most data have been collected between c …

Sill morphology and comparison of brittle and non-brittle emplacement mechanisms

NJ Schofield, DJ Brown, C Magee… - Journal of the …, 2012 - lyellcollection.org
Magmatic sheet intrusions contribute significantly to the upper crustal magma transport
network. The emplacement mechanism of the magmatic sheets controls the final geometry of …

The three-dimensional geometry and growth of forced folds above saucer-shaped igneous sills

DM Hansen, J Cartwright - Journal of Structural Geology, 2006 - Elsevier
Forced folds formed at the seabed immediately overlying shallow (< 1km) saucer-shaped
sills along the NE Atlantic Margin during the early Paleogene. Examples of this sill-fold …
