A review of Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility analysis of Indian dykes: Implications on magma emplacement
The analysis of Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) is a powerful and rapid technique to examine the preferred orientations of mineral (magnetic) fabrics and can indicate the nature of a magma transport (vertical or lateral). The relationship between magnetic fabric and geometry of a dyke swarm enables us to understand magma emplacement processes. Depending on the mutual relationship of...
متن کاملFactors Affecting the Thickness of Thermal Aureoles
Intrusions of magma induce thermal aureoles in the country rock. Analytical solutions predict that the thickness of an aureole is proportional to the thickness of the intrusion. However, in the field, thermal aureoles are often significantly thinner or wider than predicted by simple thermal models. Numerical models show that thermal aureoles are wider if the heat transfer in the magma is faster...
متن کاملSombrero uplift above the Altiplano-Puna Magma Body: evidence of a ballooning mid-crustal diapir.
The Altiplano-Puna ultralow-velocity zone in the central Andes, South America, is the largest active magma body in Earth's continental crust. Space geodetic observations reported an uplift in the Altiplano-Puna proper at a rate of ~10 mm/year; however, the nature of the inferred inflation source has been uncertain. We present data showing that the uplift has persisted at a nearly constant rate ...
متن کاملModels for the Crustal Structure of Io: Implications for Magma Dynamics. W
Introduction: Io, the innermost of the Galilean satellites, is the most volcanically active body in our solar system. While its volcanic eruptions can be studied directly, our knowledge of the underlying magmatic processes rests wholly on indirect inferences. Here we combine constraints from magma ascent and crustal density models to gain insight into the plumbing system underlying the Promethe...
متن کاملLunar Volcanic Eruptions: Range of Eruption Styles and Implications for Magma Ascent and Emplacement
Introduction: A wide variety of morphologic features representing a range of eruption styles has been documented on the Moon [e.g., 1-2]. We have characterized the nature of numerous steep-sided domes, small shields, cones, dark halo craters of internal origin, dark mantle deposits, linear rille-related deposits, and sinuous rille-related deposits on the Moon using Clementine multis-pectral, Ap...
