Paleoenvironmental signature of the Deccan Phase-2 eruptions
*Correspondence: Eric Font, IDL-FCUL, Instituto Dom Luís, Faculdade de Ciências, Universidade de Lisboa, Edifício C8-8.3.22, Campo Grande, 1749-016 Lisboa, Portugal e-mail: [email protected] The environmental impact of the Deccan trap volcanism is poorly understood as yet. The paucity of geological markers that can unambiguously be attributed to the Deccan volcanism and the temporal coincid...
متن کاملPhase equilibria trigger for explosive volcanic eruptions
[1] A mechanism for explosive volcanic eruptions based on multicomponent phase equilibria modelling of four explosive volcanic systems is proposed. In each system, either isochoric or isobaric crystallization, where either crystals or crystals and exsolved fluid are chemically fractionated from melt, leads inevitably to near-solidus dynamical instability culminating in violent explosive eruptio...
متن کاملVolatile f luxes during f lood basalt eruptions and potential effects on the global environment: A Deccan perspective
We examine the role that flood basalt eruptions may have played during times of mass extinction through the release of volcanic gases. Continental flood basalt provinces have formed by numerous eruptions over a short period of geologic time, characteristically a fewmillion years.Within this period, a short-lived climactic phase that lasts about 1Ma typically emplaces a large proportion of the l...
متن کاملPaleoenvironmental analysis.
New analysis has been carried out concerning the palaeoenvironmental reconstruction of some Italian sites dating from the Middle Pleistocene to the Bronze Age. Different aspects have been investigated on each site considering the data collected. The following sites have been analyzed: Isernia La Pineta (Molise); Visogliano and Caverna degli Orsi (Tieste); Toirano Caves (Liguria); Grotta Paglicc...
متن کاملInvestigating Paleoenvironmental Factors of Strait of Hormuz during the Holocene
The objective of this study is to understand the calcareous nannoplankton response to past environmental changes in the Strait of Hormuz during the Holocene. Calcareous nannoplankton is well abundant in the living phytoplankton community and a key component of the marine sediments. Due to its distinct reaction to environment changes and its good preservation potential, it is well suited for p...
