Journal ArticleDOI
Double-diffusive convection
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a rather personal view of the important developments in double-diffusive convection, a subject whose evolution has been the result of a close interaction between theoreticians, laboratory experimenters and sea-going oceano-graphers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of volatiles on mixing in calc-alkaline magma systems
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explain the intimate mixing between different magmas of disparate densities, characteristic of some calc-alkaline magma systems, by emplacement of a layer of wet undersaturated mafic magma at the base of a magma chamber containing more differentiated magma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ice blocks melting into a salinity gradient
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that when a vertical ice surface melts into a stable salinity gradient, the melt water spreads out into the interior in a series of nearly horizontal layers.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Influence of Viscosity on Fountains in Magma Chambers
Journal ArticleDOI
A fluid-dynamical model of differentiation and layering in magma chambers
TL;DR: In this paper, the process of differentiation is demonstrated explicitly: starting with a homogeneous mixture of two solutes in water, crystallization at a vertical boundary produces overall vertical composition gradients, as well as density stratification accompanied by smaller scale layering.
