Geophysical studies of oceanic core complexes : the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, 13-14°N

Marine geophysical studies have revealed that crustal accretion processes at mid-ocean ridges are largely dependent on the relative contribution of magmatism and tectonism to plate separation. At high levels of magmatic accretion, the ridge is associated with large amounts of surficial volcanism and...
