2016). We have also shown that diamonds from Juina, Brazil and their silicate mineral inclusions crystallised from just such a carbonatitic melt, suggesting that small-degree melts of subducted crust ...

Like straight out of Julio Verne's Journey to the Center of the Earth, scientists from Northwestern University and the ...

The source for the isotopically-enriched Hawaiian magmas contains peridotites that experienced near-surface melting prior ...

I use a wide range of geophysical techniques to study deformation in rocks and ice, melt generation and extraction, and volcanic processes. Deformation and mass transport depend critically on the ...

If you were to slice through it, you would see the Earth is divided into distinct layers. On top is the relatively thin crust where we live. Beneath that is the 2,900 km thick mantle layer.

Alisha's work was featured in the 2016 Advanced Photon Source HIghlights Book on pages 172-173. The article, written by Mary Alexandra Agner, reads: Enhancing Our Understanding of Mantle Melt Fraction ...
