In any case, if intermediate arc magmas are formed dominantly by crystal-liquid fractionation, large volumes of complementary mafic cumulates must be generated during the formation of andesitic magmas, as is seen in well-exposed crustal sections.Cin-Ty A. LeeOlivier Bachmann...
laying and operation of cables. The general belief is that a submarine cable is very large in diameter and contains numerous electrical conductors; some people even suppose that a submarine cable is a sort of pneumatic tube through which the original message is passed. Submarine telegraphy has oft...
