The volcanic Intersalar Range of western Bolivia provides a unique opportunity to examine geochemical variations spanning the arc and reararc regions of the Central Andean Plateau. In this study we re
A ridge of strongly serpentinized, plagioclase-bearing peridotite crops out at the boundary between the Atlantic oceanic crust and the Galicia continental margin (western Spain). These peridotites, co
This thesis reveals that the deep arc roots in active margins are dynamic sites where magma evolves through multiple processes over millions of years. It shows that water-fluxed melting of old rocks p
Abyssal peridotites are normally thought to be residues of melting of the mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) source and are presumably a record of processes affecting the upper...
