the oligocene-miocene granitic rocks of deh siahan, part of central iranian volcanic belt, are intruded into eocene volcano-sedimentary complex where their contact is marked by albite-epidote hornblende hornfels facies and granitic apophyses. the granitic rocks show enhanced lil element abundances and low hfs/lil ratios. geochemical data, various trace element discriminant diagrams, enhanced y/...

NW Rota-1 is a submarine volcano in the Mariana volcanic arc that is notable as the site where underwater explosive eruptions were fi rst witnessed in A.D. 2004. After years of continuous low-level eruptive activity, a major landslide occurred at NW Rota-1 in August 2009, triggered by an unusually large eruption that produced 10 times the acoustic energy of the background level of activity. An ...

Continental rifting and seafloor spreading play a fundamental role in the generation of new crust. However, the distribution of magma and its relationship with tectonics and volcanism remain poorly understood, particularly in back-arc settings. We show evidence for a large, long-lived, off-axis magmatic intrusion located on the margin of the Taupo Volcanic Zone, New Zealand. Geodetic data acqui...

This study combines detailed geologic mapping, tephrochronology, U-Pb zircon dating, and published drill core data to evaluate the time transgressive 3-dimensional (thus 4-dimensional) structure evolution of two volcanoes on Hachijo-jima juvenile Izu-Bonin intra oceanic arc. The regional Ata-Torihama tephra (Ata-Th; 0.24 Ma) Kikai-Tozurahara (K-Tz; 0.095 from Kyushu are intercalated within volu...

East Java is characterised by a complex interaction of volcanic and tectonic processes it marked isolated eruptive centres scattered across the back-arc sedimentary basins. In 2006 large sediment hosted geothermal system named Lusi, pierced Kendeng basin in since then continues relentless eruption mud breccia. To investigate spatial structural relationships between arc domains, we perform local...
