BACKGROUND For more than 100 years, the melt-dominated magma chamber has been
central to conceptual models of volcanism and igneous processes. Over the past few …

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 …

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 …

The Yellowstone supervolcano is one of the largest active continental silicic volcanic fields
in the world. An understanding of its properties is key to enhancing our knowledge of …

Silicic volcanic eruptions pose considerable hazards, yet the processes leading to these
eruptions remain poorly known. A missing link is knowledge of the thermal history of magma …

Supereruptions are the largest explosive volcanic eruptions on Earth. They generate
catastrophic, widespread ash-fall blankets and voluminous ignimbrites, with accompanying …

Activity since 1995 at Soufrière Hills Volcano (SHV), Montserrat has alternated between
andesite lava extrusion and quiescence, which are well correlated with seismicity and …

Volcanic eruptions are common, with more than 50 volcanic eruptions in the United States
alone in the past 31 years. These eruptions can have devastating economic and social …

Abstract The Wudalianchi Volcano Field (WDF) is a typical intraplate volcano in northeast
China with generation mechanism not yet well understood. As its last eruption was around …

The emplacement history and thermal evolution of subvolcanic magma reservoirs determine
their longevity, size, and ability to feed volcanic eruptions. As zircon saturation is dependent …
