Temporal evolution of a post-caldera, mildly peralkaline magmatic system: Furnas volcano, São Miguel, Azores

TL;DR: In this paper, the pre-eruptive magma plumbing system of the 10 young, intra-caldera, sub-Plinian, trachytic eruptions of the Upper Furnas Group (UFG) is investigated via whole rock major and trace element geochemistry, mineral chemistry, thermobarometry, and petrogenetic modelling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crustal CO2 contribution to subduction zone degassing recorded through calc-silicate xenoliths in arc lavas
Sean Whitley,Ralf Gertisser,Ralf Halama,Katie Preece,Valentin R. Troll,Valentin R. Troll,Frances M. Deegan +6 more
TL;DR: Textures and C-O isotopic data provide unique evidence for decarbonation, magma-fluid interaction, and the generation of carbonate melts from Merapi volcano in Indonesia, and demonstrate highly efficient remobilisation of crustal CO2 over geologically short timescales of thousands of years or less.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magmatic and Metasomatic Effects of Magma–Carbonate Interaction Recorded in Calc-silicate Xenoliths from Merapi Volcano (Indonesia)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify two distinct xenolith types: magmatic skarn xenoliths, which contain evidence of formation within the magma; and exoskarn xenophores, which more likely represent fragments of crystalline metamorphosed wall rocks.
