The recent volcano-tectonic unrest offshore the island of Mayotte27,28, Comoros Islands, is most notably known for the global observation of long-duration long period signals27,28 and for the formation and discovery of a newborn submarine volcano29. However, there was evidence for multiple earth...
transport geochemical signatures and produce upwellings that generate atypical intraplate volcanism. The mantle flow produced by slab rollover subduction, however, remains unstudied, yet it may have a comparable geodynamic significance. Here, we present analogue models of buoyancy-driven...
46. In the frame of tectonic processes, focal mechanism reversals have been reported more sporadically and generally attributed to stress changes induced by large earthquakes and overshooting47,48. Studies on hydraulic fracturing49,50and enhanced geothermal systems20,51commonly...
Coral black band disease (BBD), characterized by a dark, cyanobacterial-dominated microbial mat, exhibits a unique band shape that linearly migrates through living coral tissues (Fig.1). The characteristic black band migrates over living coral tissues, resulting in lysis and necrosis of the underl...
including magmatic recycling of crustal material to "distill" continental crust (e.g. ref. 21), crustal thickening through magmatic underplating (e.g. ref. 22), increased volcanic explosivity through crustal volatiles (cf. refs 23 and 24), and the formation of contact-metamorphic mineral deposit...
magma reservoir at ≥ 10 to 20 km below MSL that is orders of magnitude larger than erupted magma volumes; (3) a deep magma reservoir at MOHO depth which supplies the main reservoir; and (4) an extensive, subvertical fluid-magma-transfer zone from the mantle to the surface. Such ...
