Some volcanic rocks from Nyiragongo volcano in the Democratic Republic of Congo contain highly oxidized olivine crystals. These olivines crystals are made two phases, dark on backscattered electron images pure forsterite composition and grey Mg-poor areas iron-rich oxides. Calculation initial confirms that they primary with late separation different compositions. Pure is enriched SiO2 but conta...

The Kahnuj ophiolitic complex, a part of the Jazmurian ophiolitic belt, is located on the western boundary of the Jazmurian depression and is bounded by two major fault systems. There is a well-preserved, ophiolite pseudostratigraphy of early Cretaceous to early Palaeocene age and has a bearing on the Mesozoic development of southeastern part of Iran and adjacent region. The Kahnuj ophiolitic c...

Kansas Lava is a domain specific language for hardware description. Though there have been a number of previous implementations of Lava, we have found the design space rich, with unexplored choices. We use a direct (Chalmers style) specification of circuits, and make significant use of Haskell overloading of standard classes, leading to concise circuit descriptions. Kansas Lava supports both si...

The 2D Cellular Automata model, MAGFLOW, simulates lava flows and an algorithm based on the Monte Carlo approach solves the anisotropic flow direction problem. The model was applied to reproduce a lava flow formed during the 2001 Etna eruption. This eruption provided the opportunity to verify the ability of MAGFLOW to simulate the path of lava flows which was made possible due to the availabili...

The very high temperature contrast between magma/lava and water ice commonly leads to the assumption that significant melting will take place immediately upon magma/lava ice contact, yet observations of active flows show little evidence of voluminous melting upon contact. We use analytical thermal models to reassess the efficiency with which heat can be transferred from magma to ice in three si...

The Haskell library Lava is great for describing the structure of digital circuits: large, regular circuits can be captured by short, clear descriptions. However, structural circuit description alone – and hence Lava – has a somewhat limited application domain. Many circuits are more appropriately expressed in terms of their desired behaviour. In this article, I present a Haskell library – call...

The Zhob ophiolite is divided into Ali Khanzai, Omzha, and Naweoba blocks. geology comprises various lithological units including basalt–chert hyaloclastite mudstone units. consist of thick lava pelagic sediments. On the basis petrology geochemistry, lavas unit can be tholeiitic basalt, trachybasalt, basaltic andesite dacite, that more alkaline foidite, picrobasalt, tephrite-basanite. rocks hav...

This survey of the marine ichthyofauna of the Piton de La Fournaise volcano at Reunion Island is the first explanatory study of fish community structures in this area. It describes and analyses the main qualitative descriptors of the fish communities (i.e. species richness, diet, life history and geographical distribution) and their spatio-temporal organization. This investigation in 2011 exami...

The flow of lava into the ocean at the shoreline of Kilauea Volcano during the ongoing Pu’u O’o eruption has allowed a detailed study of the geochemical interaction between lava and seawater. This paper focuses on the chemistry of the major and minor elements in the fluids that resulted from this interaction. The elemental enrichments in these fluids are dominated by three processes: (1) evapor...
