Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of water on melting of mantle peridotite

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effects of variable concentrations of dissolved H2O on the compositions of silicate melts and their coexisting mineral assemblage of olivine + orthopyroxene ± clinopyroxenes ± spinel ± garnet.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fractional crystallization and mantle-melting controls on calc-alkaline differentiation trends

TL;DR: The phase relations of primitive andesites and basaltic andesite from the Mt Shasta region, N California have been determined over a range of pressure and temperature conditions and H2O contents as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Partitioning of water during melting of the Earth's upper mantle at H2O-undersaturated conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of an experimental study of the partitioning of water between common upper mantle minerals (olivine, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxenes, garnet) and silicate melt, consisting of 352 measurements in 23 hydrous melting experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Element partitioning during precipitation of aragonite from seawater: A framework for understanding paleoproxies

TL;DR: In this paper, the results from precipitation experiments carried out to investigate the partitioning of the alkaline earth cations Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+ between abiogenic aragonite and seawater as a function of temperature were presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid reequilibration of H2O and oxygen fugacity in olivine-hosted melt inclusions

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that, contrary to the widely held view, H 2 O loss or gain in melt inclusions is not limited by redox reactions and significant fluxes of H + through the host olivine are possible on very short time scales.
