238U230Th disequilibria, magma petrogenesis, and flux rates beneath the depleted Tonga-Kermadec island arc

TL;DR: In this article, high precision TIMS uranium, thorium, strontium, neodymium, and lead isotopes, along with complete major and trace element data, have been obtained on an extensive sample set comprising fifty-eight lavas along the arc as well as nineteen samples of the subducting sediments at DSDP site 204 just to the east of the Tonga-Kermadec trench.
Journal ArticleDOI

Caldera Volcanoes of the Taupo Volcanic Zone, New Zealand

TL;DR: The central TVZ has been active since 2 Ma and has erupted >104 km3 of dominantly rhyolitic magma during the last 1 m.y.p as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Geology of Eastern Papua

TL;DR: The Papuan ultramafic belt is a southeasterly trending mountainous peninsula with islands to the east and southeast, between 7° to 12° S. and 146° to 155° E. as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

An integrated model for the temporal evolution of andesites and rhyolites and crustal development in New Zealand's North Island

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that andesites are generated through the interaction of mantle-derived magmas with lower crustal melts and restites and differences between Ruapehu and Taranaki andesite reflect contrasting physical conditions during melting as well as subtle variations in the mantle and crustal source compositions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Petrology and petrogenesis of volcanic rocks from the Taupo Volcanic Zone: a review

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used least-squares mixing models using geochemistry and a variety of stable and radiogenic isotopes show that TVZ rhyolite could be generated by AFC of a mafic parent.
