Journal ArticleDOI
Chemical and isotopic constraints on the generation and transport of magma beneath the East Pacific Rise
Kenneth W.W. Sims,Kenneth W.W. Sims,Steven J. Goldstein,Janne Blichert-Toft,Michael R. Perfit,Peter B. Kelemen,D. J. Fornari,Peter J. Michael,Michael T. Murrell,Stanley R. Hart,Donald J. DePaolo,Graham D. Layne,Lary Ball,M. Jull,John F. Bender +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a suite of 20 young midocean ridge basalts from the East Pacific Rise axis between 9°28′ and 9°52′N were collected within the axial summit trough using the submersible Alvin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Porosity of the melting zone and variations in the solid mantle upwelling rate beneath Hawaii: inferences from 238U-230Th-226Ra and 235U-231Pa disequilibria
Kenneth W.W. Sims,Kenneth W.W. Sims,Kenneth W.W. Sims,Donald J. DePaolo,Michael T. Murrell,W.S. Baldridge,Steven J. Goldstein,David A. Clague,M. Jull +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a suite of tholeiitic-to-basanitic lavas were measured for porosity, solid mantle upwelling rate and melt transport times under Hawaii, showing that garnet is required as a residual phase in the magma sources for all the lavas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Th and U isotopic systematics of basalts from the Juan de Fuca and Gorda Ridges by mass spectrometry
TL;DR: In this paper, a mass spectrometric technique for the measurement of 230Th/232Th ratios in young volcanic rocks was developed, which represents an improvement of at least a factor of 5-10 in sample size and precision over conventional alpha spectrometry methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of magma generation beneath hawaii and mid-ocean ridges: uranium/thorium and samarium/neodymium isotopic evidence.
Kenneth W.W. Sims,Donald J. DePaolo,Michael T. Murrell,W. Scott Baldridge,Steven J. Goldstein,David A. Clague +5 more
TL;DR: Midocean ridge basalts shows a systematic but much different relation between uranium/thorium fractionation and samarium/neodymium fractionations, which, although broadly consistent with melting of a garnet-bearing peridotite source, requires a more complex melting model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geochronology and petrogenesis of MORB from the Juan de Fuca and Gorda ridges by 238U230Th disequilibrium
TL;DR: In this paper, a mass spectrometric method was used to determine 238U-234U-230Th-232Th in axial and off-axis basalt glasses from Juan de Fuca (JDF) and Gorda ridges.
