Differentiation and compaction in the Skaergaard intrusion
Christian Tegner,Peter Thy,Marian B. Holness,Jakob K. Jakobsen,Lars Peter Salmonsen,Madeleine C. S. Humphreys,Charles E. Lesher +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Rayleigh fractionation to constrain the final porosities or trapped liquid contents to 30-52% in LZa troctolites, decreasing to 4-12% at the top of LZb olivine-gabbroses.

Textural and Geochemical Evidence for Multiple, Sheet-like Magma Pulses in the Limeira Intrusion, Paraná Magmatic Province, Brazil
TL;DR: In this paper, petrographic, structural, and textural parameters are integrated with geological, geochemical, and Sr-isotope data to examine the emplacement, growth processes, and magmatic evolution of the high-Ti tholeiitic Limeira Intrusion, in the Paraná Magmatic Province of SE Brazil.
Compaction and Crystallisation in Magma Chambers: Towards a Model of the Skaergaard Intrusion
TL;DR: The concept of trapped liquid fraction has been used to describe the steady-state behavior of compacting layers in the Skaergaard intrusion as discussed by the authors, but when time-dependent behavior occurs, it ceases to be useful.

Sequential crystal overproduction triggering Mg-Cr-Ti-V-P-MREE- enrichment in a single-pulse tholeiitic mafic sill in the Central Iberian Zone, Spain
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the causes of Mg-Cr-Ti-V-P-MREE enrichment in a 134m thick mafic sill emplaced in a single magma pulse.
Multiple Reinjections and Crystal-Mush Compaction in the Beacon Sill, Mcmurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica
Michael J. Zieg,Bruce D. Marsh +1 more
TL;DR: The Beacon Sill, a member of the Jurassic Ferrar group of the Transantarctic Mountains, South Victoria Land, is a 150 m thick tholeiitic diabase intrusion that displays chemical and textural variability indicative of a sustained and complex history of emplacement and differentiation.

Naming materials in the magma/igneous rock system
TL;DR: In this article, a new comprehensive chemical classification of the plutonic rocks is introduced, which enables geoscientists to focus on the magma, the most important concept in igneous petrology.

Chemical mass transfer in magmatic processes IV. A revised and internally consistent thermodynamic model for the interpolation and extrapolation of liquid-solid equilibria in magmatic systems at elevated temperatures and pressures

TL;DR: In this article, a regular solution-type thermodynamic model for twelve-component silicate liquids in the system SiO2-TiO 2-Al 2O3-Fe2O 3-Cr2O3 -FeO-MgO-CaO-Na2O-K 2O-P2O5-H2O is calibrated.

The Generation and Compaction of Partially Molten Rock
TL;DR: Uounu et al. as mentioned in this paper derived the equations governing the movement of the melt and the matrix of a partially molten material from the conservation of mass, momentum, and energy using expressions from the theory of mixtures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Convection of a fluid in a porous medium
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that under certain conditions convective flow may occur in fluid which permeates a porous stratum and is subject to a vertical temperature gradient, on the assumption that the flow obeys Darcy's law.
