Understanding Upper Crustal Silicic Magmatic Systems Using the Temporal, Compositional, and Thermal Record in Zircon

The processes by which magma is transported into, stored within, and expelled (erupted) from the upper crust are critical to understanding volcanism and crustal construction. Recent studies suggest that magmatic systems may be generally long-lived and highly variable in composition, temperature and...
