The research presented in this thesis employs spatial and statistical properties of major element variability in basaltic lavas and mantle residues to constrain some of the processes and dynamics occurring beneath ocean ridge magmatic systems. Ocean ridges represent a critical s…
Slow spreading mid-ocean ridges are a ubiquitous part of the global ridge system, yet remain poorly understood. The crust produced at these ridges is fundamentally different than that produced at fast spreading ridges where the crustal architecture largely conforms to the standa…
This book collects together multidisciplinary chapters on the most important problems that arise at mid-ocean ridges. The mid-ocean ridge system is the longest continuous feature of the earth's surface, at which the great majority of ocean floor is created, and volumes of seaflo…
