The dynamics of post-collapse magmatism at rhyolitic calderas: analogue experiments and geochemistry of Yellowstone lavas

The dynamics of magma replenishment in silicic magma reservoirs are not well understood. This is an important issue, since replenishment may lead to the rapid accumulation of large volumes of crystal-poor magma, a condition potentially leading to cataclysmic caldera-forming eruptions. To shed light...
