The rheology of two-phase magmas: A review and analysis

HM Mader, EW Llewellin, SP Mueller - Journal of Volcanology and …, 2013 - Elsevier
We consider the current state of our understanding of the rheology of two-phase magmas,
that is suspensions of either bubbles or crystals in a viscous silicate melt. The discussion is …

Chemical differentiation, cold storage and remobilization of magma in the Earth's crust

MD Jackson, J Blundy, RSJ Sparks - Nature, 2018 - nature.com
The formation, storage and chemical differentiation of magma in the Earth's crust is of

Eruption of ultralow-viscosity basanite magma at cumbre vieja, La Palma, canary islands

JM Castro, Y Feisel - Nature Communications, 2022 - nature.com
The viscosity of magma exerts control on all aspects of its migration through the crust to
eruption. This was particularly true for the 2021 eruption of Cumbre Vieja (La Palma), which …

Machine learning thermobarometry and chemometry using amphibole and clinopyroxene: a window into the roots of an arc volcano (Mount Liamuiga, Saint Kitts)

O Higgins, T Sheldrake, L Caricchi - Contributions to Mineralogy and …, 2022 - Springer
The physical and chemical properties of magma govern the eruptive style and behaviour of
volcanoes. Many of these parameters are linked to the storage pressure (P) and temperature …
