Elemental and isotopic geochemistry of crystal-melt systems: Elucidating the construction and evolution of silicic magmas in the shallow crust, using examples from southeast Iceland and southwest USA
Silicic magmas (>65 wt.% SiO2) play an integral role in creating permanent continental crust. Understanding how silicic magmatic systems evolve can help us better understand the processes that control whether silicic magmas remain trapped within Earths crust or ultimately reach Earths surface, cu...
