The role of edge-driven convection in the generation of volcanism – Part 1: A 2D systematic study

<p>The origin of intraplate volcanism is not explained by plate tectonic theory, and several models have been put forward for explanation. One of these models involves edge-driven convection (EDC), in which cold and thick continental lithosphere is juxtaposed with warm and thin oceanic lithosp...
